(2) FWA must be satisfied that: (a) a majority of the employees: (i) who are employed by the employer or employers at a time determined by FWA; and (ii) who will be covered by the agreement; want to bargain; and (b) the employer, or employers, that will be covered by the agreement have not yet agreed to bargain, or initiated bargaining, for the agreement; and (c) that the group of employees who will be covered by the agreement was fairly chosen; and (d) it is reasonable in all the circumstances to make the determination. (3) For the purposes of paragraph (2)(a), FWA may work out whether a majority of employees want to bargain using any method FWA considers appropriate. (3A) If the agreement will not cover all of the employees of the employer or employers covered by the agreement, FWA must, in deciding for the purposes of paragraph (2)(c) whether the group of employees who will be covered was fairly chosen, take into account whether the group is geographically, operationally or organisationally distinct.
