Power of Scottish Agricultural Wages Board to fix rates of wages and holidays.E+W+S

3(1)Subject to and in accordance with the provisions of this section, the Board shall have power to make an order in accordance with the provisions of Schedule 3 to this Act—

(a)fixing minimum rates of wages ;

(b)directing holidays to be allowed ;

(c)fixing any other terms and conditions of employment

for workers employed in agriculture.

(2)The power of the Board to make an order under subsection (1)(a) of this section fixing minimum rates of wages is a power to make an order—

(a)fixing minimum rates for time work ;

(b)fixing minimum rates for piece work ;

(c)fixing minimum rates for time work, to apply in the case of workers employed on piece work, for the purpose of securing to such workers a minimum rate of remuneration on a time work basis ; or

(d)fixing separate minimum rates by way of pay in respect of holidays:

Provided that the minimum time rate for piece-work shall not in any case be higher than the minimum rate which, if the work were time work, would be applicable thereto by virtue of paragraph (a) of this subsection.

(2A)It shall be the duty of the Board to make an order under this section fixing such minimum rates of wages for time work as are referred to in paragraph (a) of the last preceding subsection.

(3)An order under paragraph (b) of subsection (1) of this section directing that a worker shall be allowed a holiday—

(a)shall not be made unless both minimum rates of wages in respect of the period of the holiday and minimum rates of wages otherwise than in respect of the holiday have been or are being fixed under this section for that worker ;

(b)shall provide for the duration of the holiday being related to the duration of the period for which the worker has been employed or engaged to be employed by the employer who is to allow the holiday ; and

(c)subject as aforesaid, may make provisions as to the times at which or the periods within which, and the circumstances in which, the holiday shall be allowed.

(3A)An order under this section fixing separate minimum rates of wages in respect of holiday may make provision—

(a)with respect to the times at which, and the conditions subject to which, those wages shall accrue and shall become payable, and

(b)for securing that any such wages which have accrued to a worker during his employment by any employer shall, in the event of his ceasing to be employed by that employer before he becomes entitled to be allowed a holiday by him, nevertheless become payable by the employer to the worker.

(4)Any such minimum rates of wages as are mentioned in subsection(2) of this section may be fixed so as to vary according as the employment is for a day, week, month or other period, or according to the number of working hours, or the conditions of the employment or so as to provide for a differential rate in the case of employment defined by the Board as being overtime employment, whether that employment is remunerated on a time work or a piece work basis.

In the exercise of their powers under this subsection, the Board shall, so far as is reasonably practicable, secure a weekly half-holiday for workers.

(5)An order under this section shall have effect as regards any terms as to remuneration from a date specified in the order, which may be a date earlier than the date of the order but not earlier than the date on which the Board agreed on those terms prior to publishing (in accordance with Schedule 3 to this Act) the original proposals to which effect is given, with or without modifications, by the order.

(6)Any increase of wages payable by virtue of an order under this section in respect of any time before the date of the order (hereafter in this Act referred to as arrears of wages) shall be paid by the employer within a period specified in the order being—

(a)in the case of a worker who is in the employment of the employer on that date, a period beginning with that date;

(b)in the case of a worker who is no longer in the employment of the employer on that date a period beginning with that date or the date on which the employer receives from the worker or a person acting on his behalf a request in writing for those wages, whichever is the later.

(7)Nothing in this section shall be construed as preventing the Board fixing a minimum rate of wages so as to secure that workers employed in agriculture receive remuneration calculated by reference to periods during the currency of their employment.

Part IIE+W+S Minor and Consequential Amendments

1E+W+SIn section 4(1) (enforcement), after paragraph (c) there shall be inserted the words “or

3(1)If there is no personal representative of a deceased employee, tribunal proceedings arising under any of the relevant provisions (or proceedings to enforce a tribunal award made in any such proceedings) may be instituted or continued on behalf of the estate of the deceased employee by such other person as the industrial tribunal may appoint being either—

(a)a person authorised by the employee to act in connection with the proceedings before the employee’s death; or

(b)the widower, widow, child, father, mother, brother or sister of the deceased employee,

Death during protected periodE+W+S

7Where an industrial tribunal makes a protective award under section 101 above and an employee of a description to which the award relates dies during the protected period, the award shall be treated in his case as if it specified a protected period of such length as to end on the date of his death.
