THE Fair Work Commission has inserted a new "Casual Conversion" clause into the Pharmacy Industry Award 2010, as part of its Modern Award Review.
The new provision explains the conditions under which it is an employee's right to seek conversion from casual status to continue to perform as a full-time employee or part-time employee.
The key essential elements require the employee to have worked in their casual capacity for 12 months or more, and they must seek the conversion from their employer in writing.
