VACC sent all members notification of the recent 6 June 2017 decision of Fair Work Commission which awarded a 3.3% increase to adult minimum award rates of pay in the VMRSR and Clerks Award.

The increase takes effect from the first complete pay period commencing on or after 1 July 2017.

Award rates of pay

The attached Wages Guides incorporating the wage adjustment by Fair Work Commission to the VMRSR Award and Clerks Award increases the adult minimum wage rates to $694.90 per week (0.59 cents per hour). The Wages Guides also adjust relevant allowances from the same effective date of the wage increase.

For service station members: please note that the Console Operator rates this year have been adjusted by a decision of the FWC as a part of the 4 year Award review to level up the penalty rate proportion of the rates. This adjustment only applies to the Console Operator and Roadhouse Attendants Level 4 - 20 years and over rate where there is an additional 12 cents per hour added Monday to Friday, an additional 28 cents per hour added to the Saturday, Sunday and public holiday rate and a reduction to the Overtime rate of 20 cents per hour. Proportionate changes to the junior rates also apply.

Other employees’ wages affected by the increase

Proportionate increases also flow on to junior employees and employees to whom training arrangements apply (apprentices and trainees) and employees with a disability.
