What is the Purpose of This Template?

This Individual Flexibility Arrangement (IFA) template is designed for employers whose employees are covered by a modern award. It enables a tailored variation of specific award terms for individual employees.


Who Can Use This Template?

This template must only be used for employees covered by a modern award. It is **not** applicable to employees who are award-free or covered by an enterprise agreement.

What Can Be Varied?

This template may vary award terms relating to:

  • When work is performed
  • Overtime rates
  • Penalty rates
  • Allowances
  • Annual leave loading

Note: Not all modern awards include every variation above.

Important Legal Considerations

For an IFA to be legally effective, the employee must be better off overall under the IFA than under the relevant modern award.
