Pizza Hut Australia employees will be moved to the industry award after the Fair Work Commission agreed to terminate an enterprise agreement that had expired in 2012. The Shop, Distributive & Allied Employees’ Association had applied to have the agreement terminated in 2017, after Pizza Hut failed to increase its pay rates in line with a 3.3 per cent rise in the minimum wage in 2016. Under the expired workplace agreement, penalty rates had been traded off for a seven per cent increase in base hourly wage rates.

Some 89 per cent of Domino’s Pizza Enterprises employees who participated in a ballot have voted in favour of a new enterprise agreement. The new pay deal, which is the pizza chain’s first in about five years, includes full penalty rates and casual loading for the first time. The enterprise agreement had the support of the Shop, Distributive & Allied Employees’ Association, although the Retail & Fast Food Workers Union was against some aspects of the new pay deal.

Domino’s Pizza Enterprises will have to provide its 22,000-strong workforce with penalty rates after the Fair Work Commission terminated more than 20 enterprise agreements. The Retail & Fast Food Workers Union has estimated that Domino’s was saving between $A35m and $A50m a year by continuing to employ staff under the agreements, which had expired in 2005 and 2009. The FWC has given Domino’s until late January to shift employees to the industry award, but the fast-food chained has advised that it will introduce penalty rates in December.
