Health Services Act 1988

A person who, immediately before the effective date of an Order under section 65C, was an employee of an aggregated hospital is to be regarded as—

having been employed by the new hospital with effect from that date; and

having been so employed on the same terms and conditions as those that applied to the person, immediately before that date, as an employee of the aggregated hospital; and

having accrued an entitlement to benefits, in connection with that employment by the new hospital, that is equivalent to the entitlement that the person had accrued, as an employee of the aggregated hospital immediately before that date.

The service of a transferred aggregated hospital employee as an employee of the new hospital is to be regarded for all purposes as having been continuous with the service of the employee, immediately before the effective date of the Order under section 65C, as an employee of the aggregated hospital.

A transferred aggregated hospital employee is not entitled to receive any payment or other benefit by reason only by having ceased to be an employee of the aggregated hospital because of this Division.

A certificate purporting to be signed by the chief executive officer of the new hospital certifying that a person named in the certificate was, with effect from the effective date of the Order under section 65C, employed, by virtue of this section by the new hospital is admissible in evidence in any proceedings and is conclusive proof of the matters stated in it.
