FWA may deal with disputes relating to long service leave
39D FWA may deal with disputes relating to long service leave
Despite subsection 595(1) of the Fair Work Act 2009, FWA may deal with a dispute (an LSL dispute) about matters in relation to long service leave under this Part.
For the purposes of FWA dealing with an LSL dispute, the Fair Work Act 2009 applies as if:
the dispute were a dispute in relation to the National Employment Standards; and
subsection (1) of this section were a term referred to in section 738 of that Act; and
a reference in subsection 739(5) of that Act to “this Act” were a reference to “the Coal Mining Industry (Long Service Leave) Administration Act 1992”.
