The purchased leave will be funded through the reduction in the employee's ordinary rate of pay. To calculate the purchased leave rate of pay, the employee's ordinary salary rate will be reduced by the number of weeks of purchased leave and then annualised at a pro rata rate over the twelve (12) month period.
Purchased Leave. 31.1 In addition to other elements of this agreement that are intended to assist employees to achieve their desired work/life balance, the parties have agreed to introduce a purchased leave scheme.

Access to this entitlement may only be granted on application from an employee and cannot be required as a precondition for employment. Where the employer and employee agree to a reduction in the number of working weeks the employee will receive additional annual leave as follows: 44/52 weeks Additional 8 weeks' leave 12 weeks in total 45/52 weeks Additional 7 weeks' leave 11 weeks in total 46/52 weeks Additional 6 weeks' leave 10 weeks in total 47/52 weeks Additional 5 weeks' leave 9 weeks in total 48/52 weeks Additional 4 weeks' leave 8 weeks in total 49/52 weeks Additional 3 weeks' leave 7 weeks in total 50/52 weeks Additional 2 weeks' leave 6 weeks in total 51/52 weeks Additional 1 weeks' leave 5 weeks in total The employee will receive a salary equal to the period worked (i.e. 46 weeks, 49 weeks) which will be spread over a 52 weeks period and accrual of sick leave and long service leave by the employee shall remain unchanged. As an alternative to entering into this arrangement, the employee may request that one or more weeks of their recreation leave entitlement each be converted to two weeks leave on half pay. The employer will endeavour to accommodate employee requests for arrangements under this clause, and where such requests are granted will make proper arrangements to ensure that the workloads of other employees are not unduly affected and that excessive overtime is not required to be performed by other employees as a result of these arrangements. An employee may revert to ordinary 52 week employment by giving the employer no less than four weeks written notice. Where an employee reverts to 52-week employment in this way, appropriate pro rata salary adjustments will be made.
