Notice of Holidays to be Worked. Unless notified otherwise and subject to the NES, employees working 7 Day or 6 Day or Weekend rosters may be required to work each of the public holidays in accordance with their roster. If the Company decides not to work on a public holiday, the Company shall give the employees as much notice as possible of such decision. Where the notice if less than four (4) weeks inclusive of the holiday, an employee who was rostered to work on the holiday shall be paid for ordinary hours as if the holiday had been worked. Where the reason the Company decides not to work on a public holiday is due to a strike or ban, employees will receive payment at the employee’s classification rate in respect of the ordinary hours of the shift not worked. Where the Company decides that employees working shifts on weekdays are required to work on a public holiday, the Company shall call for volunteers. Where there are insufficient volunteers to meet the Company’s requirements then employees may be requested to work on the public holiday. Employees who are requested to work on a public holiday must not unreasonably refuse such request.
Notice of Holidays to be Worked. At the commencement of the Agreement the parties have nominated which Public Holidays shall be worked for the period of the Agreement, provided that work shall not be carried out, except by voluntary labour, on two of such holidays (refer Clause 15.2 - TRANSFER OF RECOGNISED HOLIDAYS). If the Company decides not to work on a Public Holiday so nominated, the Company shall give the employees at least four weeks of notice of such decision.
