Block Pay definition

Block Pay allowance has been calculated using the Projected Roster Methodology, which is determined by adding penalties for night shifts (15%), Saturdays (50%), Sundays (100%), public holidays rostered on (150%) and public holidays rostered off (100%) occurring over a year as a proportion of ordinary hours paid. The applicable block pay allowance will be paid on recreation leave (or cash equivalent). Therefore, staff will not be paid their leave loading percentage as an additional payment. As a result, payment to individuals will result in no less than would have been received through application of the applicable Award and Agreement provisions to individual shifts in the above roster.
