SOUTH-EAST QUEENSLAND WATER (DISTRIBUTION AND RETAIL RESTRUCTURING) ACT 2009 - SECT 99BZA
Continuation of accrued rights to long service leave
99BZA Continuation of accrued rights to long service leave
(1) The person’s accrued right to long service leave in relation to the
former employment is continued in relation to the new employment as an accrued
right to long service leave as an employee of the new employer.
(2) From the
start of the new employment, the new employer has the same obligations in
relation to the person’s accrued right to long service leave as the former
employer had in relation to the person at the end of the former employment.
Example—
If a person was entitled to take 11 weeks long service leave at
the time the former employment ended, the person continues to be entitled to
take 11 weeks long service leave after the start of the new employment. The
entitlement would not be subject to completing any further period of
employment with the new employer.
(3) However, after the start of the new
employment, the person continues to accrue rights to long service leave only
under the same conditions as an employee of the new employer who is not a
person to whom this part applies.
