BILL NO.

21 OF 2015 A BILL FOR AN ACT TO AMEND THE EMPLOYMENT RELATIONS PROMULGATION 2007 ENACTED by the Parliament of the Republic of Fiji— Short title and commencement 1.—(1) This Act may be cited as the Employment Relations (Amendment) (No.

2) Act 2015.

(2) This Act shall come into force on the date of its publication in the Gazette.

Section 64 amended 2.


The Employment Relations Promulgation 2007 is amended by deleting section 64 and substituting the following new section— 64.—(1) The following days must be kept as public holidays in all working places— “Declared public holidays (a) New Years Day; (b) Good Friday; (c) Easter Saturday; 2 (d) Easter Monday; (e) Prophet Mohammed’s Birthday; (f) National Sports Day; (g) Constitution Day; (h) Fiji Day; (i) Diwali; (j) Christmas Day; and (k) Boxing Day.

2)— of 2015 3 Office of the Attorney-General Suvavou House Suva August 2015 EMPLOYMENT RELATIONS (AMENDMENT) (NO.
2) BILL 2015 ________ EXPLANATORY NOTE (This note is not part of the Bill and is only intended to indicate its general effect) 1.0 1.1 1.2 1.3 1.4 2.0 2.1 2.2 2.3 BACKGROUND The Employment Relations Promulgation 2007 (‘Promulgation’) makes provision for public holidays in Fiji, and since 2010, the Government has progressively reduced the number of public holidays.

For the first time in 2015, a public holiday was declared for the purpose of recognising sports and sporting development as a whole in Fiji.
In furthering Government’s commitment in building a new and all inclusive Fiji and to commemorate our achievements as a nation, it is proposed that there be an additional public holiday on 7 September to be declared as ‘Constitution Day’.

This is to give more prominence to our Constitution and to create awareness on the essential constitutional provisions afforded to all Fijians.

The Employment Relations (Amendment) (No.


2) Bill 2015 (‘Bill’) seeks to amend the Promulgation to ensure that the National Sports Day and the Constitution Day are public holidays under the Promulgation.

CLAUSES Clause 1 provides for the short title and the commencement date.

Clause 2 amends section 64 of the Promulgation by deleting the current list of public holidays and substituting a new list of public holidays which includes National Sports Day and Constitution Day.
Clause 2 also empowers the Minister, following the approval of the Prime Minister, to amend the list of declared holidays by notice in the Gazette.

4 3.0 3.1 MINISTERIAL ASSIGNMENT The Promulgation comes under the responsibility of the Minister responsible for Employment, Productivity and Industrial Relations.

YEAR 2015 Chairman of the Board Mr. Shaik Baksh (Jan-May 2015); Professor Clive Thomas (Jul-Dec 2015) CEO Dr. Rajendra Singh (Jan-May 2015); Mr. Errol Hanoman (Jun-Dec 2015) Auditors Auditor General; Subcontracted: Parmesar Chartered Accountants Auditors’ Opinion  Unqualified audit opinion was issued stating that the financial statements had presented fairly, in all material aspects, the financial position of the Corporation at the end of each year, and that the financial performance and cash flows for each year were in conformity with the International Financial Reporting Standards and the Companies Act 1991.
 The concern of GuySuCo’s debt of G$2.3Billion to the Guyana Revenue Authority for which there is no formal agreement for the waiver of penalties and interest was highlighted.

 Also highlighted were the issues of GUYSUCO’s total liabilities, the issued share capital being depleted by the losses incurred and the validity of the going concern basis on which the financials are prepared depended on the Government’s continued support.
Total Sugar Production 231,071 tonnes – 7% increase from 2014 Farmers’ Contribution 24,453 tonnes (11%) Cane Yields Total – 57.93 TCH – 4% increase from 2014  The improve cane yields mainly stemming from favourable weather conditions and improved applications of principals and standards by the workforce, positively impacted the production level.
Factory Recoveries Total – 12.19 tcts – 7% increase from 2014  Factory performance increased due to the improved quality of cane and cane supply resulting from favourable weather conditions.

 Skeldon Factory produced 39,157 tonnes of sugar, the highest production level in history, although a far cry from its intended potential.
Revenue and Average Price  The depressed world market prices negatively impacted our largest market – the EU – resulting in an average price realized of USc16/lb, a 20% decrease from 2014 prices.

In spite of the increased production level, the depressed market prices resulted in reduced revenues of 7% to G$21.5Billion.

 Employment Cost  Employment cost reduced marginally by 3% to G$21.7Billion in 2015.

No wage increase was awarded for 2015.


 Employment cost amounted to 101% of total revenues and accounted for 53% of total costs.

 In 2015 there were 193 strikes resulting in 70,129 mandays lost.

Capital Additions G$1.767Billion Resultant Net Profit/(Loss) before Subsidy (G$18.128Billion) Subsidy G$12Billion Resultant Net Profit/(Loss) after Subsidy (G$1.904Billion)
