.mdThe employee's long service leave entitlement is governed by the **State law of Victoria**, specifically the *Long Service Leave Act 2018* (Vic). Although the employee works for a national‑system employer covered by the *Fair Work Act 2009* (Cth), long service leave is not part of the National Employment Standards. The Fair Work Act preserves the operation of State and Territory long service leave laws for national‑system employees (see s.27 of the Fair Work Act). Therefore, the applicable jurisdiction is the **Victorian State Government**.
