Sunday and public holiday penalty rates will be reduced for hospitality, retail staff, Fair Work Commission rules

Sunday and public holiday penalty rates will be reduced for hospitality, retail and fast food workers, the Fair Work Commission has ruled.
However, Saturday penalties will not be changed.
The commission said the cuts would lead to increased services and trading hours on public holidays and Sundays.
Sunday pay rates for full-time and part-time hospitality workers will be cut from 175 per cent of their standard wage to 150 per cent.
In retail, Sunday wages will be reduced from 200 per cent of the standard rate to 150 per cent for full-time and part-time staff.
For fast food workers, Sunday pay for some full-time and part-time employees — classed as "level one" workers — will be cut from 150 per cent to 125 per cent.
Casual workers in retail and fast food will also see their pay cut.
The commission reviewed Saturday rates but decided against any reductions.
More to come.

mmmmm...

Absolutely outrageous, if they cut Sundays rates then it should apply to absolutely EVERYONE who works on a Sunday.
Call out fee for emergency situations when staff are called up, (they are probably on standby allowance anyway).
