Provided also that when the employer is a contractor shearing or crutching sheep under contract with an owner or the owner’s agent,the failure of the owner or agent to keep the contractor supplied with sheep for shearing (or crutching) will not be deemed to be a cause unavoidable by the contractor unless the owner or agent is prevented from supplying sheep because of any unavoidable cause.
49.9 Yarding sheep for shearing
(a) At shearing operations the employer will,unless prevented by any cause unavoidable by the employer,yard the sheep for shearing at least four hours before the time of their being shorn so as to overcome any fullness or sweat in such sheep and the employee will shear such sheep without delay.
