The Workplace Relations Commission recommended granting a worker grade VII from 9 September 2016 in a pay-grade dispute dated 16 February 2017. The worker said she had taken on a vacant grade VII role in 2011 but remained at grade V. Her employer argued that grade VII was not appropriate for its smallest unit and that regrading required a job evaluation. The adjudication officer noted inconsistent grading and support across the employer’s units and considered the previous incumbent’s grade relevant to the rate-for-the-job claim.
