Types of Collective Agreements

Trends in Federal Enterprise Bargaining tables 2, 3 and 9 include information about collective agreements broken down by the type of agreement, as determined by the relevant legislation. The following list shows the types of collective agreements available under the two pieces of legislation included in this report:

Collective agreements made under the Workplace Relations Act 1996

Employee collective Employee greenfields Union collective Union greenfields

Enterprise agreements made under the Fair Work Act 2009

Single enterprise non-greenfields Single enterprise greenfields Multi-enterprise non-greenfields Multi-enterprise greenfields

Of note, in sections 327-330 of the Workplace Relations Act 1996, the primary division between types of agreements was whether they were made with a union or without a union, while the primary division between agreements made under section 172 of the Fair Work Act 2009 is whether they cover a single or multiple enterprises. Under both pieces of legislation, the secondary division is whether or not the agreement is a greenfields agreement, that is, it is made to cover a genuine new enterprise or undertaking for which no persons have been employed who will be covered by the agreement.

Union Coverage

Care should be taken when analysing data in tables 10 and 11, comparing agreements that cover a union and those that do not.

Data about unions covered by agreements made under the Fair Work Act 2009 may not provide an accurate reflection of union involvement in bargaining for agreements. Under the Fair Work Act 2009 it is possible for a union to have been involved in bargaining for an agreement and then not be covered by the approved agreement. It is also possible for a union to be covered by an agreement because they were a bargaining representative, even if they did not take an active role in the negotiations.

Further, data about non-greenfields agreements made under the Fair Work Act 2009 that cover a union cannot be directly compared with data about union collective agreements or s.170LJ agreements made under the Workplace Relations Act 1996, which had to be made with a union. While a union may be a bargaining representative, there is no capacity under the Fair Work Act 2009 for agreements (other than greenfields agreements) to be made with a union.

TRENDS IN FEDERAL ENTERPRISE BARGAINING REPORT

MARCH QUARTER, 2013

SUMMARY

Overall wages growth under federal enterprise agreements1 – March quarter 2013 (Tables 1 & 2 of the Trends report)

Wage increases in federal agreements for the March quarter 2013 have slightly risen but still remains moderate.

The Average Annualised Wage Increase (AAWI) for the 1 338 federal agreements approved in the March quarter 2013 was 3.7 per cent, a rise of 0.3 per cent on the 3.4 per cent outcome for the December quarter 2012.

Comparison of AAWI against the broader ABS Wage Price Index

The 3.7 per cent AAWI for the March quarter 2013 is broadly in line with the 3.2 per cent March quarter 2013 ABS Wage Price Index (WPI) – both indicative of a softening labour market.

Although Chart 1 shows some divergence between the AAWI and WPI in the March quarter 2013, it broadly shows that the two measures have returned to their relatively close relationship following the early 2010 period when the WPI appeared to be responding to the effects of the Global Financial Crisis on the Australian labour market.

Note: The WPI is a broader measure of wages growth covering all employees. It is unaffected by changes in the composition of the labour force. The AAWI data in the Trends in Enterprise Bargaining Report does not control for changes in the compositional mix of enterprise agreements from quarter to quarter. A weighted AAWI is provided at Note 2 at the end of this summary.2

AAWI for agreements current as at 31 March 2013 (Tables 3 of the Trends report)

CHART 2: Current Agreements AAWI – March quarter 2010 to March quarter 2013

Chart 2 shows that the All Industries AAWI for the 22 983 agreements current as at 31 March 2013, a measure of wages growth trend, has remained at its historical low of 3.8 per cent – continuing on its declining trend since December 2010.

It is noteworthy that the last time the current agreements AAWI was 3.8 per cent (excluding the previous quarter) was in the December quarter 2001 – see “Historical Table- current” file on the Trends in Enterprise Bargaining website.

CHART 3: Private Sector AAWI for Current and Approved Agreements – March 2010 to March 2013

Chart 3 shows that the AAWI for private sector enterprise agreements in the March quarter 2013 was 3.7 per cent, up by 0.3 per cent on the 3.4 per cent December quarter 2012 AAWI.

Although this is a rise from the previous quarter, the private sector AAWI remains moderate at the second lowest level in the last 3 years.

the private sector AAWI movements are the result of two separate influences:

a change in the mix of industries for approved agreements in a quarter with quantifiable wage increases; and

changes in the actual AAWIs for each industry.

In the case of the March quarter 2013, the private sector AAWI has slightly moved upwards because of the net effect of a changed industry mix in agreements approved and AAWI movements in the following key industries (with examples of some key agreements for each):

Health had a slightly upward influence on the private sector AAWI because it made up 21 per cent of quantifiable agreements in the quarter and these

agreements had an average AAWI of 3.6 per cent which was above the December quarter AAWI of 3.4 per cent;

St John of Gods, WA enrolled nurses agreement (3.7 per cent AAWI)

Ramsay Health, Qld nurses (3.5 per cent AAWI).

Manufacturing made up 11 per cent of quantifiable agreements in the quarter with an average AAWI of 3.5 per cent and had a similar slight upward influence;

Inghams processing and distribution, SA (3.6 per cent AAWI)

various Manildra Flour agreements in NSW (4.0 per cent to 4.3 per cent AAWIs).

Construction had a relatively stronger upward influence - the net effect of growth in the relative percentage of its agreements in the March quarter, accounting for 7 per cent of quantifiable agreements compared to 3 per cent in the previous quarter, and the level of its AAWI which was 4.7 per cent (lower than the 4.8 per cent AAWI for the December quarter);

LCE Queensland, Qld (6.4 per cent AAWI)

Pacific Services Group, Qld (6.4 per cent AAWI)

It is worth noting that there were some large agreements with lower AAWIs such as the Leightons, NSW agreement (2.8 per cent AAWI).

Transport, Postal and Storage had a similar upward influence for broadly the same reasons as Construction. Transport accounted for a higher portion of quantifiable agreements in the quarter, 6 per cent compared to only 3 per cent in the previous quarter and also had an increase in AAWI from 4.2 per cent to 4.4 per cent;

Alternate Railway Safeworking, Vic (6.8 per cent AAWI)

Pacific National Intermodal Division (5.3 per cent AAWI)

UPS postal services (4.4 per cent AAWI).

On the other hand, the private Education sector which accounted for 9 per cent of quantifiable agreements in the quarter and a comparatively lower average AAWI of 3.2 per cent had an offsetting effect to the upward influences mentioned above;

Queensland Anglican Schools (2.7 per cent AAWI).

Other industries, such as Rental, Hiring and Real Estate Services and

Administrative and Support Services although experiencing significant AAWI growth of 2.5 per cent to 4.9 per cent and 3.8 per cent to 4.7 per cent respectively, had relatively little impact on the private sector AAWI movement because they made up only 2.5 per cent of all quantifiable private sector agreements in the quarter.

Public sector wages growth – March quarter 2013 (Tables 1, 2, 4 and 12 of the Trends report)

The AAWI for public sector agreements approved in the March quarter 2013 was 3.9 per cent, up from 3.3 per cent in the December quarter 2012.

The March quarter 2013 public sector AAWI has increased mainly because of higher AAWI agreements in the universities and the Victorian local government areas. Some agreements in these areas include:

Curtin University, academic and general staff (4.9 per cent AAWI)

Central Queensland University (4.9 per cent AAWI)

Knox City Council (4.0 per cent AAWI).

Another factor influencing the public sector AAWI is the absence of many agreements with particularly low AAWIs, of which there were several in the December quarter 2012. In the March quarter 2013, the largest public sector agreement, by employees, with a low AAWI was:

the Victorian Department of Human Services Disability Services agreement (2.6 per cent AAWI)

State/Territories wages growth – March quarter 2013 (Table 7 of the Trends report)

By state, AAWIs were highest in the Northern Territory and Western Australia, at 5.7 per cent and 4.9 per cent respectively and lowest in Queensland with 3.3 per cent.

The gap between highest and lowest AAWIs by state, widened somewhat in the March quarter 2013 to 2.4 per cent compared to a gap of 0.8 per cent to 1.5 per cent in 2012.

Wages growth for agreements that cover union/s and agreements with no union/s covered – March quarter 2013 (Table 10 and 11 of the Trends report)4

Agreements that formally covered unions had an AAWI of 3.8 per cent whereas those with no unions formally covered had an AAWI of 3.4 per cent.

Level of agreement making - as at 31 March 2013 (Table 3 of the Trends report)

Agreements approved in the quarter

o A total of 143 300 employees were covered by the 1 338 agreements approved in the March quarter 2013.

o The 1338 enterprise agreements approved in the March quarter 2013 is about three quarters of the quarterly average of 1851 agreements since the commencement of the Fair Work Act, however, occasional low totals are not unusual, as seen by the 1191 and 1437 totals for the December quarter 2009 and March quarter 2011 respectively.

o Most of the decrease in employees has come from the private sector but occasional low “employees covered” totals are not unusual either, as seen by the 148 600 and 175 500 totals for the June quarter 2010 and March quarter 2012.

Current Agreements

o There were 22 983 agreements, covering 2.54 million employees, current as at 31 March 2013.

This is a slight decrease in the employee coverage of current

agreements under the national system from 2.57 million as at 31 December 2012.

The following large agreements (employee numbers in brackets) were approved in the March quarter 2013:

ANZ (22 063)

Curtain University Academic, Professional and General staff (6 885)

HACSU Department of Human Services Disability Services (6 291)

The Queensland Anglican Schools (5 471).

The 2.54 million employees covered represents an increase of over 23 per cent on the 2.05 million employees covered by the federal agreement making system on 30 June 2009, that is, immediately prior to the commencement of the Fair Work agreement making provisions.

Chart 4 graphs the trend in current agreement numbers and employees covered over the last three years, by quarter.

CHART 4: Current Agreements and Employee Coverage – March 2010 to March 2013

Agreement making since the commencement of the Fair Work Act

o Under the Fair Work Act between 1 July 2009 and 31 March 2013 a total

of 25 777 agreements have been approved, covering almost 3.5 million employees.

Industry o By industry, there has been growth in current agreement numbers and

employees covered by current agreements in the majority of industries since the Fair Work Act agreement making provisions commenced on 1 July 2009.

o Chart 5 records the growth in the number of current agreements between 30 June 2009 and 31 March 2013 by ANZSIC and Chart 6 does the same for employees covered by the current agreements.

Chart 5: Growth in the Number of Current Agreements (by ANZSIC) – between 30 June 2009 and 31 March 2013

o Chart 5 shows that, measured by agreements, the Professional, Scientific and Technical Services, Rental, Hiring and Real Estate Services and the Wholesale Trade industries experienced the most significant growth in the number of current agreements, with increases of 99, 88 and 78 per cent respectively.

o In some industries the number of current agreements fell, the most noteworthy being Information Media and Telecommunications, Accommodation and Food Services and Retail Trade with a decrease of 34 per cent, 31 per cent and 24 per cent respectively.

o In the case of Information Media and Telecommunications, the fall is particularly due to the replacement of approximately 40 Telstra agreements which expired in the March 2012 and June 2012 quarters by a single Telstra agreement.

o In the case of Accommodation and Food Services, the fall in current agreements is particularly due to the expiration of multiple agreements in the December quarter 2012 and March quarter 2013, which have yet to be replaced.

Chart 6: Growth in Employee Coverage of Current Agreements (by ANZSIC) – between 30 June 2009 and 31 March 2013

o Chart 6 shows that, measured by employees covered, the industries with the most significant growth were Wholesale Trade, Accommodation and Food Services and Financial and Insurance Services where the percentage growth in employees covered by current agreements as at 31 March 2013 compared to 30 June 2009 was 252 per cent, 188 per cent and 153 per cent respectively.

o Most industries experienced growth in both agreement numbers and employees covered.

o Manufacturing was the key industry where there was a reduction in the number of employees under current federal enterprise agreements. It experienced a fall of 15% in employees covered.

CONTEXT FOR INTERPRETING DATA 1. Estimates of average wage increases are calculated for those federal

enterprise agreements that provide quantifiable wage increases over the life of the agreement. Enterprise agreements for which average percentage wage increases could not be quantified (e.g. those introducing a new salary structure) are excluded from these estimates. AAWI data examines only increases to the base rate of pay, and does not take into account allowances and bonus payments that are paid separately from the base wage.

2. Trend AAWI data: The AAWI for agreements approved in a quarter can be more volatile because the quarterly pool of agreements, normally around 1800 to 2000, is relatively small and therefore susceptible to the influence of either large agreements or overrepresentation by agreements from whichever industries are in the middle of their bargaining cycles at the time. The table below summarise various trend AAWI measures which indicate the underlining direction of wage growth for agreements for the three quarters in 2012 and the March quarter 2013. For comparison, the headline quarterly AAWI has been included in the last row of the table.

relative size in the current agreements’ “pool”.

3. Context for the Trends in Enterprise Agreements data on wages growth in

federally registered enterprise agreements: i. over one third of all non-managerial employees in the

Australian labour market (as measured by the ABS 2012 Employee Earnings and Hours survey) are covered by federal enterprise agreements;

ii. the growth in coverage by federally registered agreements measured by the more recent ABS EEH surveys is;

* The May 2012 ABS EEH Survey does not breakup State Registered and Unregistered Collective Agreements

Source for Table: ABS, Employee Earnings and Hours, Cat. No. 6306.0, May 2006, August 2008, May 2010 and May 2012, unpublished data. Please note that this is not intended to be analysed as a time series.

4. An agreement is identified as being “union” where the Fair Work Act

decision approving the agreement notes in accordance with s201(2) of the Fair Work Act 2009 that the agreement covers the union(s) which has/have given notice under s183(1) that it/they want the agreement to cover them. It is recognised that this is a proxy measure as the data measures coverage rather than bargaining presence.

5. Caution should be used interpreting the data on employment conditions. The presence of a particular provision in an enterprise agreement does not provide information about the content of that provision and does not necessarily mean that employees make use of that provision. In addition, not all conditions in enterprise agreements apply to all employees. For example, an agreement might provide for flexible working time arrangements for staff at particular levels but exclude managerial staff from the scope of these specific clauses. In such cases, the agreement is still recorded in the Workplace Agreements Database (WAD) as containing the relevant provision.

6. Conversely, the absence of particular employment conditions from an enterprise agreement does not necessarily mean that the conditions is not available to employees through other means, such as an award that is called up by the agreement or in human resource policies and practices that operate in the workplace.
