SALARIED MEDICAL OFFICERS ENTERPRISE AGREEMENT

122 Mr HAMILTON-SMITH (Waite) (17 July 2012). With respect to 2012-13 Budget Paper 4, vol. 3, p. 38—

When do the next round of doctors and nurses wage enterprise agreement negotiations take place and what provision has been budgeted?

The Hon. J.D. HILL (Kaurna—Minister for Health and Ageing, Minister for Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Minister for the Arts): I am advised:

Formal negotiations for a new Salaried Medical Officers Enterprise Agreement commenced on 24 May 2011. The parties are still having extensive discussions to reach agreement.

On 12 October 2011, an offer was made to the South Australian Salaried Medical Officers Association. The package included a salary offer of:

Annual salary increases of 2.5 per cent per annum, operative on the first full pay period on or after 14 April in 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014;

Conditional on reaching agreement, an additional salary increase of 0.5 per cent to apply following approval by the Industrial Relations Commission of South Australia; and

0.5 per cent operative on the first full pay period on or after each 12-month anniversary of the date of approval.

This provides for a compounded salary outcome over the life of the proposed Agreement of 12.61 per cent. It should be noted that the offer has not yet been agreed between the parties.

Negotiations for a new nursing and midwifery enterprise agreement are to commence no later than January 2013.
