Document background
This document template addresses the specific requirements for creating a Greenfields Agreement under Australian employment law. A Greenfields Agreement is utilized when establishing employment terms and conditions for a genuine new enterprise where no employees have yet been hired. The agreement must be negotiated with one or more relevant unions and requires approval from the Fair Work Commission before it can take effect. It includes comprehensive details about wages, working conditions, leave entitlements, dispute resolution procedures, and other employment terms that comply with the Fair Work Act 2009 and National Employment Standards. This type of agreement is particularly valuable for new projects, businesses, or undertakings where standardized employment conditions need to be established from the outset.
