Airports (Transitional) Act 1996

This clause applies to an employee who, immediately before the employee’s transfer time, was an employee of the FAC whose period of service under the Long Service Leave Act was at least 10 years.

Even though the employee ceases to be employed in Government Service for the purposes of the Long Service Leave Act, the employee’s accrued rights under that Act continue if the employee becomes an employee of an airport‑lessee company at the employee’s transfer time. However, the employee is not entitled to receive any payment because he or she ceases to be in Government Service.

The Long Service Leave Act has effect after the employee’s transfer time as if the company were an approving authority for the purposes of that Act.
