Long Service Leave (Portable Schemes) Act 2009

This section applies if the governing board considers that the total ordinary remuneration for a worker stated in a return given to the authority under section 49 (Quarterly returns by employers) or section 54 (Quarterly returns by voluntary members) for a quarter is insufficient or excessive because of the nature of the work carried out by the worker in the quarter.

The governing board must give the following people a notice that summarises the person’s rights under subsection (3):

for a return under section 49—the employer who submitted the return and the employee;

for a return under section 54—the voluntary member.

Not later than 1 month after being given the notice, a person mentioned in subsection (2) may ask the board to take into account anything set out in writing about the matter.

After considering any representations under subsection (3), the governing board may—

agree that the total ordinary remuneration stated in the return for the quarter is reasonable; or

fix another amount as the total ordinary remuneration of the worker for the quarter.
