Employees Eligible for Supported Salary

20.1   Nothing in this Agreement will prevent the full operation of the 'Supported Wage System' which means the Commonwealth Government System to promote employment for people who cannot work at full award wages because of a disability, as provided in the University’s Supported Wage Scheme policy.

20.2   A staff member covered by the supported wage system will be paid the greater of either $61 per week or a percentage of the relevant base salary rate for the class of work in which the person is performing which corresponds to the assessed percentage of capacity (10-90 %). Where a person's assessed capacity is 10%, he or she will receive a high degree of assistance and support.
