\n\tThe Full Bench of the Fair Work Commission (Commission<\/strong>) today issued its decision setting out the transitional arrangements that will apply to the reductions in Sunday and Public Holiday penalty rates announced on 23 February 2017. <\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n


\n\t

\n\tThe Commission determined that Sunday penalty rates will be reduced via a four (4) stage transition for permanent staff, and a three (3) stage transition for casual staff in the Retail industry.  The Commission has also confirmed that Take Home Pay Orders are not available to employees impacted by the reductions, and that there will be no “red-circling” or “grandfathering” of existing employees.

\n\t 

\n\tThe table below sets out the way the Sunday penalty rate reduction will transition:
