Schedule 1 of AFCOM 2004 EPA - The total rate of pay is a sum of the fortnightly base rate plus the shift allowance (which is the sum of the averaged weekend penalties and the flat rate averaged night shift allowance) plus the 38 hour week allowance. (Night Shift correct currently but subject to EB negotiations for the application of the 15% applicable from 1/67/06.) 16.33 hours (av night shift per week) x 15% = 2.45 hours; 2.45 hours/38 = 6.45% of base rate + Total leave per year will therefore be 312.3572 hours and accordingly, IHRIS will accrue this time on a fortnightly basis at the rate of 11.9726hours per fortnight.
Clause 8.1 of QFRS CA 2006 - Communications employees shall be entitled to a meal break of not less than 30 minutes during each shift/day for the purposes of consuming a meal. Such break to be completed during the shift, however, where practicable, such break should be taken between the third and sixth hour of work. This meal break shall be taken at such time as will not interfere with the continuity of work. Where an employee is unable to take, or is recalled to duty before the completion of the meal break they shall be paid a meal allowance of $9.60. Such allowance is to be adjusted from time to time in accordance with General Rulings of the QIRC. Employees recalled to duty shall be allowed to complete the meal break once the interruption is over. Clause 4.10 Where shift > 10 hours a 2nd meal break is to be completed by 2 hours prior to completion of duty Casual Communications Officers Rate of Pay Agreement in Principle From 4 December 2006 the hourly rate for all new casual employees will be as per the following formula:(Base Pay + Shift and Weekend Penalties) x 23%/by 76 hours All employees who commenced prior to 4 December 2006 will remain on the current formula. From 4 December 2006, any employee who breaks their continuity of service (a break of more than 3 months) and who subsequently rejoins the service as a casual communications officer will be paid as per the following formula:(Base pay + Shift and Weekend Penalties) x 23% / by 76 hours NB.

Clause 4.3 Temporary employment of Queensland Fire and Rescue Service Interim Award - State 2003 Prior to the introduction of temporary employees at Classification Levels FPO 3 and FPO4 consultation shall occur between the relevant parties. A temporary employee may be engaged in either a full time or part-time capacity for a predetermined period which will not usually exceed 6 months. The method of working ordinary hours shall be the same as those prescribed for a full-time employee under this Award. All leave provisions of this Award applying to full-time employees shall apply pro rata to temporary employees. QFRS Standard Operating Procedure 2029.0 Temporary firefighters should be employed for a minimum of one full tour and a maximum of months in any one continuous period. The use of temporary firefighters to 6 backfill single shifts is discouraged and an option that should only be utilised in extraordinary circumstances. A letter of appointment must be provided to temporary firefighters prior to engagement outlining the period and terms of the appointment . Temporary firefighters will be issued with a separate payroll number to that of their auxiliary fire protection officer role (if applicable). This number should be quoted on all documentation related to their temporary engagement This number will be re . -used should a subsequent period of temporary employment occur . Temporary firefighters are to claim remuneration for ACTUAL hours worked on an individual staff timesheet . Temporary firefighters must be separated from the payroll at the conclusion of their appointment. So as to ensure a true break in service , a temporary firefighter should not be reappointed for a period of at least 7 days in excess of their paid annual leave accrual at the time of separation . Annual leave accrual must be paid out in full at the time of separation . Unused sick leave and long service leave will be recognised for the purpose of any future temporary or permanent engagement where the break in service is , less than 3 months. Break in service is to be calculated as the period in excess of any entitlement to paid annual leave upon separation . Preference for employment as a temporary firefighter within the QFRS shall be given to current QFRS Auxiliary Fire Protection Officers. QFRS Standard Operating Procedure 2017.0 Permanent or temporary firefighters undertaking auxiliary duties shall be remunerated in accordance with QFRS SOP 2016.0 Auxiliary Employment Conditions . Total leave per year will therefore be 312.3572 hours and accordingly, IHRIS will accrue this time on a fortnightly basis at the rate of 11.9726hours per fortnight.

Annual leave periods exclusive of week-ends, programmed RDOs & public holidays. All annual leave is paid in advance The remuneration for the position of BAO includesd base rate plus 15.7% to compensate items such as shift work, paid overtime and on-call; 38hour week allowance and 2.5% flexibility allowance. The additional allowances for the BAO are superannuable except for the 38 hour week allowance. As per Clause 6.5.1 of QFRS CA 2006 - The current loading of 15.7% (which compensates items such as shift work, paid overtime and on-call) will be increased to 20%. This increase recognises BAOs being available to be rostered on-call for an average of one week in four, as specified in Clause 6.5.2 of the 2006 EPA for duties commensurate with the skills possessed. BAOs will also retain the 2.5% Special Flexibility Allowance currently paid to that functional role. The increased loading will be effective on and from the date on which the first wage increase takes effect. Conditions of employment reflect the FPO3 and FPO4 agreed conditions including the non-allocation of paid overtime, call back and on-call allowances. If a BAO is required to work on recognised rostered days off or rest days, they receive Time Off in Lieu (TOIL) at single time. (Although BAOs are day workers they continue to hold the rank of Station Officer (FPO2) and accumulate annual leave at the same rate as shift workers.) Clause 6.5.5 Extra Ordinary Duty Hours (that is work performed above and beyond normal on-call duties by Building Approval Officers in response to particular emergency response circumstances) is an interim arrangement pending the development of a Departmental or whole of government employment arrangement relating to Special Deployments. Clause 6.5.6 Payment when on extra ordinary duty hours: Shift Payments 14 hours ordinary time for each shift they are assigned to the duty. Daily Deployment Allowance - Officers who are required to be away from home overnight due to the nature of the deployment will be paid the applicable allowances for travelling in accordance with section 8.1.2 of the Queensland Fire and Rescue Service Interim Award - State 2003. Total leave per year will therefore be 312.3572 hours and accordingly, IHRIS will accrue this time on a fortnightly basis at the rate of 11.9726hours per fortnight. May be some changes to BAOs as part of EB negotiations. Rural Fire Management Officers will retain a 38 hour week and as such will not be entitled to payment of a 38 hour week allowance. Weekend penalty rates and night shift allowance are averaged to provide a standard fortnightly rate of salary for all RFMO1 and RFMO2 employees. The averaged "loading" to be paid without deduction and recognised for all purposes of paid leave and occupational superannuation provided that the "averaged" loading will be paid in lieu of, and not in addition to, the usual 17 1/2% annual leave loading. The total rates of pay paid to RFMO1 and RFMO2 comprise the base rate of pay in addition to a weekend penalty component (21.43% of the base rate) plus a night shift component (based on the amount of 16.33 hours x the applicable night shift hourly rate). (Night Shift correct currently but subject to EB negotiations for the application of the 15% from 1/67/06.) 16.33 hours (av night shift per week) x 15% = 2.45 hours; 2.45 hours/38 = 6.45% of base rate + Clause 6.3.2 of QFRS Interim Award - An unpaid meal break of at least 30 minutes duration may be prescribed where the Assistant Commissioner determines that continuity of work is not necessary. Clause 5.4 of EPA (applies to RFMO2s) A Special Flexibility Allowance will be paid to non shift work Station Officers working in certain roles. This allowance will be paid at the rate of 2.5% calculated on the base rate of pay for all hours worked. This rate will buy out the first two hours of overtime penalties in any one pay period. If more than two hours overtime is worked payment will be made as per Clause 6.2.1 of the Award (i.e. time and a half for the first 3 hours on any one day and double time thereafter). However, as per Clause 5.4.5 of the EPA when recalled to work overtime shifts that form part of a continuous shift roster, day workers will receive overtime penalties. These penalties will be paid at the overtime rate applicable to continuous shift workers (i.e. double time) (2.5% Special Flexibility Allowance being reviewed as part of EB 2006)

As per Clause 6.5.1 of QFRS CA 2006 - The current loading of 15.7% (which compensates items such as shift work, paid overtime and on-call) will be increased to 20%. This increase recognises BAOs being available to be rostered on-call for an average of one week in four, as specified in Clause 6.5.2 of the 2006 EPA for duties commensurate with the skills possessed. BAOs will also retain the 2.5% Special Flexibility Allowance currently paid to that functional role. The increased loading will be effective on and from the date on which the first wage increase takes effect. Conditions of employment reflect the FPO3 and FPO4 agreed conditions including the non-allocation of paid overtime, call back and on-call allowances. If a BAO is required to work on recognised rostered days off or rest days, they receive Time Off in Lieu (TOIL) at single time. (Although BAOs are day workers they continue to hold the rank of Station Officer (FPO2) and accumulate annual leave at the same rate as shift workers.)
