Annual leave forms part of the National Employment Standards (NES). The NES apply to all employees covered by the national workplace relations system. An award, employment contract, enterprise agreement or other registered agreement can't provide for conditions that are less than the NES or exclude the NES. The NES establish the minimum entitlements to annual leave, how and when annual leave can be taken, and the pay rate employees should receive. The NES also set out what happens with annual leave when there is a transfer of employment, and the arrangements that apply to the cashing out of annual leave.
