Common use of Commuted Allowance Clause in Contracts

Commuted Allowance. Commuted allowances agreed on a case‑by‑case basis with the Employee concerned and/or the relevant Union may be paid in substitution for allowances provided for elsewhere in this Agreement, in circumstances where the requirements of the relevant work unit result in members working overtime and/or on‑call. An Employee must not receive less as a commuted allowance over the period that the commuted allowance is paid, than the Employee would have received had the allowance(s) being commuted been paid over that period.
