NAPSA

NAPSA (Notional Agreement Preserving State Award) is a federal agreement that preserved the conditions of certain state awards and/or state legislation from New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, or Tasmania, created on March 27, 2006. These agreements were replaced by modern awards on January 1, 2010.

NAPSA, standing for Notional Agreement Preserving State Award, was a transitional arrangement. It protected specific employment conditions from state awards and legislation in NSW, Queensland, South Australia, and Tasmania, ensuring continuity until the introduction of modern awards. Established in 2006, NAPSA served as a bridge, preserving existing workplace rights and conditions until they were replaced by the more comprehensive modern awards system in 2010.
