2. Salaries
Full-time employees shall be paid the salaries
as set out in Table 1 of Part B, Monetary Rates,
of this Award.
3. Salary Sacrifice to
Superannuation
(i) Notwithstanding
the salaries prescribed in Clause 2, Salaries, as varied from time to time, an
employee may elect, subject to the agreement of the employee’s employer, to
sacrifice a part or all of the salary payable
under the salaries
clause to additional employer superannuation contributions. Such election must be made prior to the commencement of
the period of service to which the earnings relate. The amount sacrificed
together with any salary packaging arrangements under Clause 6, Salary
Packaging, of this Award may be made up to one hundred (100) per cent of the
salary payable under the salaries clause, or up to one hundred
(100) per cent of the currently applicable superannuable salary, whichever is the lesser.
In this clause, ‘superannuable salary’ means the
employee’s salary as notified from time to time to the New South Wales public
sector superannuation trustee corporations.
(ii) Any pre-tax and
post-tax payroll deductions must be taken into account prior to determining the amount of available salary to be
packaged. Such payroll deductions may include but are not limited to
superannuation payments, HECS
payments, child support payments, judgement debtor/garnishee orders, union fees and private health fund
membership fees.
(iii) Where the
employee has elected to sacrifice a part or all of the available payable salary
to additional employer superannuation contributions:
(a) The employee
shall be provided with a copy of the signed agreement. The salary sacrifice
agreement shall be terminated at any time at the employee’s election and shall
cease upon termination of the employee’s services with the employer.
(b) Subject to Australian taxation
law, the amount
of salary sacrificed will reduce the salary subject
to appropriate PAYE taxation deductions by the amount sacrificed; and
(c) Any allowance,
penalty rate, overtime, payment for unused leave entitlements, weekly workers’
compensation, or other payment, other than any payment for leave taken in
service, to which an employee is entitled under the relevant Award or any
applicable Award, Act, or statute which is expressed to be determined by reference to an
employee’s salary, shall
be calculated by reference to
the salary which would have applied to the employee under the salaries clause
of the relevant Award in the absence of any salary sacrifice to superannuation
made under this Award.
(iv) The employee may
elect to have the specified amount of payable salary which is sacrificed to
additional employer superannuation contributions:
(a) paid into the superannuation scheme established under
the First State Superannuation Act 1992
as optional employer contributions; or
(b) subject to the
employer’s agreement, paid into a private sector complying superannuation
scheme as employer superannuation contributions.
(v) Where an
employee elects to salary sacrifice
in terms of subclause (iv) above,
the employer will pay the sacrificed
amount into the relevant superannuation fund.
(vi) Where the employee is a member
of a superannuation scheme established under:
(a) the Police
Regulation (Superannuation) Act
1906;
(b) the Superannuation Act 1916;
(c) the State
Authorities Superannuation Act 1987;
(d) the State
Authorities Non-contributory Superannuation Act 1987; or
(e) the First
State Superannuation Act 1992.
The employee’s employer must ensure that the amount of
any additional employer superannuation contributions specified in subclause (i)
above is included in the employee’s superannuable salary which is notified to
the New South Wales public sector superannuation trustee corporations.
(vii) Where, prior
to electing to sacrifice a part or all of their salary
to superannuation, an employee had entered
into an agreement with their employer to have superannuation contributions made
to a superannuation fund other than a fund established under legislation listed
in subclause (vi) above, the employer will continue to base contributions to
that fund on the salary payable under Clause 2, Salaries, to the same extent as
applied before the employee sacrificed that amount of salary to superannuation.
This clause applies even though the superannuation contributions made by the
employer may be in excess of the superannuation guarantee requirements after
the salary sacrifice is implemented.
4. Conditions of
Service
(i) The Public Hospitals (Professional and Associated Staff)
Conditions of Employment (State) Award 2024, as varied or replaced from time
to time, shall apply to all persons covered by this Award.
(ii) Conditions of employment relevant
to a classification(s) identified within
an Award listed
in Part C, shall
apply.
(iii) Where inconsistency exists between the conditions provided
by this clause, subclause (ii) shall apply.
5. Dispute Resolution
The dispute
resolution procedures contained
in the Public Hospitals (Professional and Associated Staff) Conditions of Employment (State)
Award 2024, as varied or replaced from time to time, shall apply.
6. Salary Packaging
(i) By agreement with their employer,
employees may elect to package
part or all of their salary in accordance
with this clause, to obtain a range of benefits as set out in the NSW Health
Policy Directive 2018_044 Salary Packaging, as amended from time to time. Such election must be made prior to the commencement of the period of service to which
the earnings relate. Where an employee also elects to salary sacrifice to superannuation under
this Award, the combined amount of salary
packaging/sacrificing may be up to 100
per cent of salary.
Any salary packaging
above the fringe
benefit exemption cap will attract
fringe benefits tax as described in paragraph (iv) below.
(ii) Where an employee elects to package
an amount of salary:
(a) Subject to Australian taxation
law, the packaged
amount of salary
will reduce the salary subject
to PAYE taxation deductions by that packaged amount.
(b) Any allowance,
penalty rate, overtime payment, payment for unused leave entitlements, weekly
workers’ compensation, or other payment other than any payment for leave taken
in service, to which an employee
is entitled under this Award or statute
which is expressed
to be determined by
reference to an employee’s salary,
shall be calculated by reference to the salary
which would have applied to the employee under this
Award in the absence of any salary packaging or salary sacrificing made under
this Award.
(c) ‘Salary’ for
the purpose of this clause, for superannuation purposes, and for the
calculation of Award entitlements, shall mean the Award salary as specified in
Clause 2, Salaries, and which shall include ‘approved
employment benefits’ which
refer to fringe benefit savings,
administration costs, and the value of packaged benefits.
(iii) Any pre-tax and
post-tax payroll deductions must be taken into account prior to determining the amount of available salary to be
packaged. Such payroll deductions may include but are not limited to
superannuation payments, HECS
payments, child support payments, judgement debtor/garnishee orders, union fees, and
private health fund membership fees.
(iv) The salary
packaging scheme utilises a fringe benefit taxation exemption status conferred
on public hospitals and local health districts, which provides for a fringe
benefit tax exemption cap of $17,000
per annum. The maximum amount of fringe benefits-free tax savings that can be
achieved under the scheme is where the value of benefits when grossed-up, equal the fringe
benefits exemption cap of $17,000.
Where the grossed-up value exceeds the cap, the employer is liable to
pay fringe benefits tax on the amount in excess of $17,000 but will pass this
cost on to the employee. The employer’s share of savings, the combined
administration cost, and the value of the package benefits are deducted from
pre-tax dollars.
(v) The parties
agree that the application of the fringe benefits tax exemption status
conferred on public hospitals and local health districts is subject to
prevailing Australian taxation laws.
(vi) If an employee wishes to withdraw from the
salary packaging scheme, the employee may only do so in accordance with the
required period of notice as set out in the NSW Health Policy Directive
2018_044 Salary Packaging.
(vii) Where an employee ceases to salary package,
arrangements will be made to convert the agreed package amount to salary. Any
costs associated with the conversion will be borne by the employee, and the
employer shall not be liable to make up any salary lost as a consequence of the
employee’s decision to convert to salary.
(viii) Employees accepting the offer to salary
package do so voluntarily. Employees are advised to seek independent financial
advice and counselling to apprise them of the implications of salary packaging
on their individual personal financial situations.
(ix) The employer and the employee shall comply
with the procedures set out in the NSW Health Policy Directive 2018_044 Salary
Packaging, as amended from time to time.
7. No Extra Claims
The Commission makes this Award on the basis that the parties have
provided the following undertaking: Other than as provided for in the Industrial
Relations Act 1996, there shall be no further claims/demands or proceedings
instituted before the Industrial Relations Commission of New South Wales for
extra or reduced wages, salaries, rates of pay, allowances or conditions of
employment with respect to the employees covered by the Award that take effect
prior to 30 June 2025 by a party to this Award.
For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties may, during the term of this
Award, discuss additional opportunities for system improvements and, if agreed,
a further pay increase may be provided to recognise the contribution of
employees to those system improvements.

Duration
