If it is QF that is directing its DMMs to work 12 hour shifts when no extended hours agreement exists, I would think that it would be QF that should be copping any fines. Or at least the AIRC should make orders that QF must not direct any of its staff to work in contravention of the existing agreements.
My point is that since QF withdrew from the extended hours shift agreement, there is now no current extended hours agreement in place. When there is no extended hours agreement in place, all staff affected must work 8 hour shifts until a mutually agreeable extended hours agreement is made. QF should not be able pick and choose who continues to work 12 hours and who should have to work 8 hours.
Is there any benefit to QF by them directing DMMs to work 12 hour shifts?
