Maritime Offshore Oil and Gas Award
Industry award covering 60+ classifications across 8 vessel-type schedules (Facilities, Support Div 1/2, Supply, Stand-by-utility, Self-propelled drilling, Seismic survey, NW shelf coastal). Distinctive features: 8 vessel schedules with same role names but different rates (D1); aggregate annual salary = min salary + OT component (D2); 1.153 leave factor combines all NES leave types into a single multiplier (D3); 84/105-day max accrual (D4); swing-off-day extra pay (D5); 18h continuous duty + 10h rest (D6); $167,749 death-accident insurance + 65% personal illness insurance (D7); FT/Relief-only — no PT or casual (D8). All 60+ classification rates, all aggregate breakdowns, all 12 allowances cross-checked line-by-line — zero drift on any figure.
Fully built. Rates, allowances, penalties and any required apprentice / junior rates are all wired to the rate resolver and have been verified against the consolidated award text and the latest pay guide.
What's built
- 60+ classifications across 8 vessel schedules with same role names at different rates (D1).
- Aggregate annual salary = minimum salary + overtime component (D2).
- 1.153 leave factor combining all NES leave types into a single multiplier (D3).
- 84/105-day max leave accrual cap (D4) — substitute for the typical 8-week excessive-direction provision (cl 19 has NO excessive-direction provisions).
- Swing-off-day extra pay (D5).
- 18h continuous duty + 10h rest period rule (D6) — `min_rest_period_hours=10` fires ONLY after 18h continuous duty, not as a generic shift-to-shift rule.
- $167,749 death-accident insurance + 65% personal illness insurance (D7).
- FT and Relief employment ONLY — no part-time or casual (D8).
- Cl 11A right to disconnect, cl 24A workplace delegates, cl 5.11(b) IFA pre-Dec-2013 split.
- Cl 28 employee-to-employer notice 1/2/3/4 weeks + 1-week max deduction (≥18). Award is SILENT on job search (cl 28 + cl 29) — `termination_job_search_award_silent=true`.
- 12 allowances + 6 leave entitlements + ~110 configuration entries.
Known limitations
- 1.153 leave factor (D3) is fully-absorbed — resolver must NOT apply additional NES leave entitlements on top.
- Cl 11.2(b) 10-hour rest fires ONLY after 18h continuous duty — NOT generic. `min_rest_period_trigger_clause=11.2(b)` ensures correct gating.
- Award is SILENT on job-search entitlements (cl 28 + cl 29). Resolver must NOT apply generic 1-day-per-week rule.
- No PT or casual employment — only FT and Relief (D8).
