CORRECTIONS ASSOCIATION OF NEW ZEALAND INCORPORATED v CHIEF EXCUTIVE OF THE DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS [2018] NZCA 268

- Court of Appeal
The Court held the abolition of the senior case manager title did not amount to a variation requiring agreement because the collective agreement did not refer to detailed job duties or the existence of specific positions as contractual employment conditions; clause 2.2.5 only applies to changes to employment conditions expressly referred to in the agreement; clauses 2.2.4 and 10 permitted organisational restructuring subject to consultation which was complied with; therefore no further agreement was required.
