It’s unfortunately this simple.
If a workplace agreement includes stood down provisions, those provisions apply, not the FWA. Not one stood down legislation in the FWA is relevant. The only thing that matters are those EA stood down clauses.
In most QF agreements I’ve read, the stood down provisions include that annual leave may be offered. There is no mention of personal leave or sick leave. So it’s not payable. It’s one of the few instances where our agreements are worse than the FWA legislation.
I expect Qantas will win.
