The Council currently has six Senior Executive

total salary package of $160,000 or more. These officers
are employed as permanent full-time officers with the
following allowances and benefits:
• provision of a fully maintained vehicle;

• statutory superannuation.
No bonuses are payable.
In terms of remuneration the profile of the
workforce is as follows:
Enterprise Bargaining
The Workplace Agreements outline the working
conditions for all staff. Both agreements are based on
flexibility within the workplace, with a strong
commitment to a high standard of customer service.
The two current Workplace Agreements have been in
effect from 1 January 2012 and operate for a period of
3 years. These Agreements provide a high degree of
security for staff while providing industrial stability for
Council.
Occupational Health and Safety
The Occupational Health and Safety function was
transferred to the Corporate Services Department
during the past 12 months to incorporate into a newly
formed Corporate Advisory Team encompassing the
whole of Corporate Risk.
The Risk Management framework was developed,
endorsed by the Management Executive Team, and
is now in place with a focus on Corporate Risk
and includes the OHS programs for the ensuing
twelve months.
Council continued its participation in the industry wide
Healthy Lifestyle program. This involved employee skin
screening, fitness assessments and seminars on health
and nutrition. Training for all staff has been provided
on a wide range of occupational health and safety
issues including:
• Confined Spaces
• Hazardous Management and Identification
• First Aid
• Workzone Traffic Management
• Hazardous Substances
• Safe lifting practices
Equal Employment Opportunity
The Equal Opportunity (EO) Committee has a 3 year
EO Plan to ensure EO is at the forefront of the
organisation. The annual EO Muffin Day was held to
remind staff of the importance of Equal Opportunity,
and was again well received. The committee intends to
undertake other events annually.
