I think it just counts as continuous employment. So if you were casual for 3 years then moved to PT for 4 years, you would still be entitled to the 7 years oro-rata of LSL as the 3 years would count as continuous employment.
We had someone who did 2 years as a casual 1 day a week and then went PT for another 2 years (4 days a week]. So he said according to our EBA he was entitled to LSL (ours is 3 years) and was adamant.
3 years was for FT, 7 years PT. Even after I explained it to him and he was like âah, fair enough, thanks for looking in to it for me, all the bestâ he still went to the union rep and the union lawyer and I showed them and they were like âoh, he didnât mention anything about Pt/FT classificationâ
I only know about the past and what Fair Work Australia says.
My Mum worked for Myer for over 30 years, and it was initially classed as casual meaning no sick pay leave public holiday or other entitlement. She worked three days a week every week for 20 years , and her Union challenged the conditions based on another person who left. Industrial Court judged Mum and others were permanent part-time so all working conditions and benefits applied so Myer had to back pay her for 20 years of holidays etc. We got a new car, secondhand Commodore actually. Dad called the car Sidney.
I remember having a Mexican hot chocolate where they a slab of pure chocolate, shaped like those Wagon Wheel lollies, and melt it in a heating liquid. Small amount of liquid, water I think, and melted in a low heat.
