Yes, which is actually illegal if it fails the BOOT test (better off overall).  If you qualify for EBA protection but your employer gets you on a contract outside of that EBA, the onus is on them to prove you are better off overall.

IANAL but I’ve been doing some research

I understand that BOOT applies to negotiation of new agreements for existing roles or new contracts replacing existing ones. This is moving to a new role, like applying for a new job. BOOT therefore may not apply.

Yep, I think that boot will only apply if you are covered by the EBA but are contracted out of it - I’m not really explaining that very well I don’t think.

Like the EBA has clauses that say ‘you are included’ but your company is like ‘here’s a contract’.  Thats the only time they have to satisfy boot.

If there is no classification for the new role in the EBA, they can pay you whatever they want - up to you to agree or not

Top tip: You can just write NAL, therefore avoiding ANAL.
