10-hour break following overtime at LDK Greenway
Wednesday 27 May, 2026
Dear member,
HSU members at LDK Greenway have raised concerns about not receiving the full 10-hour break after working overtime.
The Aged Care Award clearly outlines your entitlement to overtime payments when your employer requires you to start your next shift after overtime without receiving the full ten-hour break.
Have you worked a double shift (overtime) and then worked morning shift the next day?
- Check your payslips to make sure you were paid overtime rates for the whole of the morning shift.
- Email payroll requesting an audit of your time sheets to identify the backpay owed including the applicable superannuation contributions. Include your Organiser lisa.bourke@hsu.asn.au in this email.
- Keep records/screenshots of your shifts and regularly check payslips to identify any potential underpayment.
For any questions or to find out more, please reach out to your HSU Organiser Lisa Bourke at lisa.bourke@hsu.asn.au or 0409 744 165 or your Member Services Division on 1300 478 679.
Do you know someone who isn’t an HSU member? Encourage them to join our Union today and have a say at work. We are always stronger when we stand together.
