PSA and the Parliamentary Officers have negotiated a consent award for new salaries and allowances for electorate officers. (Electorate officers work for members of NSW Parliament.)
Their proposal is being put to a ballot of members before being lodged with the IRC for ratification.
They will get a 4% salary rise backdated to July 96. This will bring them into line with the public service rises.
They will get new all-purpose allowances, which incorporate previous allowances and give them a rise.
The new allowance will be treated as salary for all purposes, eg superannuation, leave, etc.
The new allowances are:
The other feature is that acting up allowances will apply for one day or more (in the public service it's 5 days or more).
- EO1 - $2,500 p.a.
- EO1 Special - $3,000 p.a.
- EO2 - $4,000 p.a.
