PETROL PUMPERS
AMENDMENT TO AWARD
The Dominion Motor Mechanics' Award has been amended by the Arbitration Court in order to provide conditions for workers employed by proprietors of petrol pumps. A new clause to cover the position of those proprietors who sell oil and petrol only as a side-line in connection with some other business has been drafted. Under this provision, an employer who does not employ any worker substantially as a petrol and oil attendant ia bound only by the provisions of the award under which his principal business is carried on. This; of course, will necessitate the payment of overtime rates to workers employed outside the prescribed hours. If such an employer decides to employ a worker or workers substantially in the sale of petrol and oil he will be bound by clause 7 of the award. ' ■
