(Australia, New-Zealand, qualifier:industrial relations) A negotiated set of employment conditions and minimum wages for a particular trade or industry; an industrial award.
The AMIEU^([Australasian Meat Industry Employees Union]) first developed into a powerful organisation in the early years of the twentieth century, and after the first industry-wide collective agreement was made in 1911, collective bargaining prevailed in the industry until 1917, when the employers sought an award from the Queensland Industrial Court. The first award was issued on March 12, 1918.
1970, Kenneth Frederick Walker, Australian Industrial Relations Systems, page 242:A further 17 per cent responded that the agreement replaced ‘most’ aspects of the award, leaving the large majority (67 per cent) claiming that the agreement replaced only ‘some’ aspects of the award.
2000, Mark Wooden, The Transformation of Australian Industrial Relations, page 42:Employees whose pay is set by ‘award only’ are those who have their pay set by an award, and who are not paid more than the award rate of pay.
2007, Australian Bureau of Statistics, 2007 Year book, Australia, page 182:
