The Fair Work Commission has agreed to grant an extension of the modified Vehicle Services Award, following a member application to do so initiated on 18 September. The modified award provides all eligible Dealers with greater flexibility in their employment arrangements with staff and helps them keep their workforce employed.
Details of the modified award, which now remain in effect until 30 November 2020, are available on the Fair Work Ombudsman’s website.
With the move to JobKeeper 2.0 rendering many members ineligible for further Federal Government assistance under this program, the modified award provides important concessions that we would encourage all members to be aware of and utilise if required.
