Where City Rail outsources a range of security services at many railway
stations on the City Rail network:
- Can the Minister give an assurance that all guards being utilised for
security duties at railway stations are:
- properly employed in the form of either an award or employment contract,
and
- provision is made by the engaged contractor for payment of taxation,
superannuation and other entitlements?
- What mechanism has City Rail in place to ensure that the above standards
apply to all those employed to do security work?

I am advised:
- (a) and (b) Any company which enters a contract with City Rail must comply
with all appropriate State and Federal laws governing employment and all
industrial awards.
- Any company which enters a contract with City Rail must provide written
assurances acknowledging the binding responsibilities as an employer to all
appropriate State and Federal laws governing employment and all industrial
awards.
