LAMS agreement negotiations- revised management position- October 2010
Termination payments
Management is willing to forego some elements of previous claims in respect to termination
payments.
Management will alter its termination payment claims subject to agreement on a reduction in the
cap on TOIL from 140 hours to 80 hours and an acceptance of annual leave management being
adopted which is consistent with arrangements applying in the ACTPS.
To dispel doubt this means that termination claims will be paid to existing and/or new staff should:
• a MLA contest a general election but is not elected; and
• a MLA is re-elected but the employee's contract is not renewed.
Termination claims will be paid to existing staff should:
• a MLA not contest a general election.
However, new staff employed after the new agreement is approved will not be eligible should:
• a MLA not contest a general election.
The table used to reflect management's position on the overall eligibility of termination payments
has been altered accordingly and is attached.
Improvements to ACTPS conditions
Management will agree to provide staff the entitlement improvements afforded general ACTPS staff
as sought in the staff claim. However, that provision is contingent on the acceptance of
management's claims in regard to TOIL, annual leave management and termination payments.
