I am advised:
(1) As part of the roll-out of the NDIS, every disability employee-
ongoing, temporary or casual- who transfers to the non-government sector has
their job guaranteed.
For ongoing staff this guarantee is for two years, and up to six months for
temporary and casual staff. No employee will be made redundant in this process.
Staff who do not transfer to the non-government sector will be supported to
find employment opportunities within the NSW Public Sector and will be
prioritised by hiring managers as part of the NO IS Public Sector Mobility
Pathway.
(2) As part of the two year employee guarantee, all transferring wages and
conditions will be maintained. There is also a transfer payment of up to eight
weeks pay for ongoing staff.
(3) The Fair Work Act means the awards currently covering staff will be
'copied' from the state to the national employment system at the time of
transfer, and can remain in place for up to five years.
