It was ordered that the member be re-instated with no detriment in a decision which was wholly damning of the manner in which the disciplinary matter had been handled.

DP Harrison stated that in all his time on the bench he struggled to find an example where someone was dealt with more unjustly and that WorkCover’s handling of the matter was an “absolute disgrace”.

DP Harrison further stated that the conduct by WorkCover, the Safety Regulator in NSW, was “shabby and disgraceful. It lacks any objectivity and has the characterisation of institutional bullying.”

The decision makes for very interesting reading and can be found .

The NSW Government is putting a further squeeze on public sector employees鈥� pay by revealing it will make them pay for the Federal Government鈥檚 compulsory rise in superannuation out of their own pockets, the Public Service Association said today.

Treasurer Mike Baird has confirmed he considers the rise in compulsory superannuation 鈥� 0.25% from July as part of a staggered rise from 9 to 12% – as an employee-related expense falling under the Government鈥檚 2.5% cap.

This is a blow to public sector workers already saddled with a sub-inflation wage cap, said Public Service Association General Secretary Anne Gardiner.

鈥淭he NSW government has set the bar very low in the way it has made this decision,鈥� she said.

鈥淭here has been no consultation with public sector unions. We would have expected the biggest employer in NSW to show more respect for its workers.

鈥淭he rise in superannuation means the cap has now effectively been reduced to around 2.25% and will reduce further as the compulsory superannuation rate increases.

鈥淭his is supposed to be an employer contribution to superannuation but the NSW Government is shifting the cost of this increase on to their employees.
鈥淯nlike other employees in NSW, public sector workers can鈥檛 even offset this superannuation cost with increased productivity because this is not permitted under the O鈥橣arrell Government鈥檚 wages policy.鈥�

That the 色狼社区pursues a 1 year term and further, that the 色狼社区oppose any attempt to include a 鈥渘o extra claims鈥� clause in the awards, provided that the pay increase achieved is payable from the first full pay period in July.鈥�

Under the Government鈥檚 wages law we are only able to claim 2.5% a year.

Any increase in excess of 2.5% must be balanced with a trade-off of conditions, a measure to which the 色狼社区will not agree.

The acceptance of a 鈥渘o extra claims鈥� clause would restrict our ability to raise and defend a range to defend a range of other matters that may arise over the course of the terms of these awards.

The existing awards expire on 30 June.

The 色狼社区lodged the award variations on 9 April.
