22  Variation of designated work groups at initiative of operator

Consultations
 (1) If the operator of a facility believes the designated work groups should be varied, the operator may, at any time, enter into consultations about the variations with:
 (a) the health and safety representative of each of the designated work groups affected by the proposed variation; and
 (b) if a member of a designated work group affected by the proposed variation requests that the operator enter into consultations with a workforce representative in relation to the group—that workforce representative; and
 (c) each work group employer (if any) in relation to each designated work group affected by the proposed variation.

Variation
 (2) If:
 (a) consultations take place about the variation of designated work groups that have already been established; and
 (b) as a result of the consultations, it has been determined that the variation of some or all of those designated work groups is justified;
then, within 14 days after the completion of the consultations, the operator must, by notifying the members of the workforce who are affected by the variation, vary the designated work groups in accordance with the outcome of the consultations.
