Cool QF & the word HEAVY!!!

Lately on the airwaves QF international (76s/A330s and above) have been using the word "HEAVY" on initial contact with tower/centre or approach!!......is this just a QF thing or is it a ATC requirement now in Australia that you use the word heavy for large A/C??........the only country where this was the norm was the ol US of A!!.......any answers??
