## Assumptions and Limitations

### Assumptions

* Dayworker - Other Sectors (clause 13.2(a)): ordinary span Monday to Friday 6:00 am to 6:00 pm (BASE).
* No Saturday ordinary hours, so Saturday is whole-day overtime for full-time and part-time employees under clause 25.2(a)(i) (150% first 2 hours, 200% after).
* Sunday has no ordinary hours, so full-time and part-time Sunday work is overtime at 200%.
* Casual hours outside the Monday to Friday span are MULTIPLE 1.0 at the loaded ordinary rate (not overtime).
* Casual Saturday and Sunday use clause 26.1(b) 175% of the unloaded minimum for all time worked (1.4 against the loaded casual base).
* Daily overtime after 10 hours applies Monday to Friday for full-time and part-time employees, and EVERY for casuals, at clause 25.2/25.3 multiples (1.5/2.0 against the applicable base).
* Weekly overtime after 38 hours uses EVERY first-2 / after-2 tiers.
* Private Medical, Dental & Pathology (clause 13.2(b)): ordinary span Monday to Friday 7:30 am to 9:00 pm (BASE) and Saturday 8:00 am to 4:30 pm at clause 26.1(a) weekend ordinary 150%.
* Sunday has no ordinary hours under 13.2(b), so all Sunday work is overtime at clause 25.2(a)(ii) 200% for full-time and part-time employees.
* Work outside the ordinary span on Monday to Saturday is overtime under clause 25.1(a)/(b) at 150% for the first 2 hours then 200%.
* Daily overtime after the clause 13.1(b) 10-hour cap and weekly overtime after 38 hours use the same Mon-Sat tiers, with Sunday and public holiday weekly/daily lines at the day overtime rate.
* Casual hours outside the Monday to Friday span are MULTIPLE 1.0; Saturday and Sunday casual use clause 26.1(b) 1.4 against the loaded casual base, with daily overtime after 10 hours and weekly overtime after 38 hours under clause 25.3.
* Private Medical Imaging - 5.5 Day (clause 13.2(c)): ordinary span Monday to Friday 7:00 am to 9:00 pm (BASE) and Saturday 8:00 am to 1:00 pm at 150% for full-time and part-time employees.
* Sunday and casual weekend/outside-span patterns follow the same approach as the private medical/dental/pathology variant, with span times adjusted to 13.2(c).
* Private Medical Imaging - 7 Day (clause 13.2(d)): ordinary span Monday to Friday 7:00 am to 9:00 pm (BASE), with Saturday and Sunday ordinary hours 7:00 am to 9:00 pm at clause 26.1(a) 150% for full-time and part-time employees.
* Outside-span work Monday to Saturday uses clause 25.2(a)(i) first-2 / after-2 tiers; Sunday outside-span overtime is 200%.
* Daily overtime after 10 hours is Monday to Saturday at 150%/200% for full-time and part-time employees, Sunday daily overtime at 200%, and casual daily overtime EVERY at 1.5/2.0 against the loaded base.
* Casual Saturday and Sunday remain clause 26.1(b) 1.4 all day.
* Shiftworker (clause 26.3): ordinary hours may be worked across the week (BASE all-day EVERY).
* Shift penalty 115% (casual 140% of the unloaded minimum → 1.12 against the loaded casual base) applies Monday to Friday where the shift finishes between 6:00 pm and 8:00 am (END\_ONLY windows) or commences between 6:00 pm and 6:00 am (START\_ONLY windows).
* Shift penalty does not apply on Saturday, Sunday or public holidays where clause 26.1/33 rates apply; weekend ordinary is 150% full-time/part-time and 1.4 casual.
* Daily overtime after 10 hours and weekly overtime after 38 hours use EVERY (with Sunday daily overtime at 200% for full-time and part-time employees).
* Shared across variants: public holidays use clause 33.2 at 250% full-time/part-time and MAPD 275% → 2.2 against the loaded casual base; public holiday daily overtime is 250%; casual minimum engagement is 3 hours (clause 11.2) day-scoped at the applicable day multiple; clause 25.4 rest period after overtime is a single 10-hour GAP at 200%.
* CASUAL base rates already include clause 11.4(b) 25% loading; casual overtime multiples under clause 25.3 are 1.5/2.0 against the loaded casual base.
