A Workplace Agreement (Australian AWA) is an individual written agreement of terms & conditions of employment between an employer & worker & or employees. Except for Occupational Health & safety, Workers' Compensation or training arrangements an Workplace Agreement can override employment conditions in state or territory laws, but an Australian Workplace Agreement must meet the Australian Fair Pay & Conditions Standard.
Australian Workplace Agreements which fail the check may still be registered if it is in the public interest to do so. A workplace may be covered by an existing enterprise agreement specifying conditions above the award, which may mean that the Workplace Agreement is a reduction in standard workplace conditions.
On March 27th 2006 new arrangements for a workplace agreements came in to effect which meant that different workplace agreement procedures had to followed.
