TELSTRA ADDITIONAL DAY Clause Samples

TELSTRA ADDITIONAL DAY. 36.1. You are entitled to take an additional paid day off each calendar year. You can choose the timing of this day, subject to your manager’s approval and taking business and customer requirements into account. If you do not take this day within the calendar year, you lose it and it will not accrue. 36.2. If you have not taken your Telstra Additional Day by 1 October of the calendar year due to business requirements, then you may, with reasonable notice, choose a date to take this leave until the end of the calendar year. Telstra will approve this date, subject to operational requirements. Where your chosen date cannot be accommodated, Telstra will allow you to take an alternative date before the end of the calendar year. SECTION 8 REDUNDANCY The following principles reflect the objectives of Telstra about Redundancy, the Placement Period and Retrenchment: a) Telstra may appoint an employee to perform another suitable role at any time prior to their employment ending in order to avoid the employee being retrenched; b) where retrenchments occur, the separation process will be fair and based on respect for the individual; c) while Telstra recognises that employment security cannot be guaranteed, our objective is to provide access to job opportunities and reasonable retraining for employees within Telstra, where the roles they perform are unlikely to be required on an ongoing basis; d) Telstra will consider voluntary measures (such as requests for voluntary redundancies and voluntary swaps) in order to mitigate the effect of redundancies; e) Telstra retains discretion about who is selected for retrenchment or appointed to another role, and will take into account various factors, including but not limited to the following: i) business requirements; ii) your skills and experience; iii) your likely ability to meet the requirements of any new role; iv) your preferences and career aspirations; and v) the location of any new role; f) Telstra will consult with you and the Telstra Unions about redundancies as described in Section 6.
