Suitable Duties. 1.13.2.1 Suitable duties are duties (which may also be described as a role or position) which an excess employee could reasonably be expected to perform to a reasonable standard, within a reasonable period of time and with a reasonable level of training, education and/or other support. 1.13.2.2 Unless the employee agrees, or requests otherwise, duties which require some a variation to the excess employee’s full time or part time hours of work per week will not be considered to be suitable. 1.13.2.3 Consideration for assignment of an excess employee to suitable duties will include the following: i. due consideration to the employee’s personal circumstances; ii. the distance from home to the workplace(s) (providing every effort is made so as not to require relocation of the employee’s household); iii. any potential variation to existing starting and finishing times. 1.13.2.4 While the transfer of an excess employee to suitable duties does not require the agreement of the employee, every effort will be made to assign an excess employee to suitable duties by agreement. 1.13.2.5 A suitable role, duties or position may be at a lower classification/remuneration level than an employee’s current substantive classification level, providing the classification does not provide a salary of less than 75% of the employee’s substantive salary. Transfer of excess employees to duties, roles or positions with a lower classification/remuneration level should only be considered when other options provided for in the Public Sector Act and this Appendix have been exhausted.
