The entitlement is governed by **Victorian State law**: the **Long Service Leave Act 2018 (Vic)**, because the employment is in Victoria.

The employee’s status as an employee of a national-system employer under the **Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth)** does not create a single Commonwealth long service leave entitlement. Section 113 of the Fair Work Act preserves the operation of State and Territory long service leave laws.

Accordingly, subject to any applicable Victorian portable long service leave scheme or more beneficial applicable industrial entitlement, the entitlement is worked out under the Victorian Act. Broadly, the Act provides long service leave based on continuous employment with the same employer, at **1/60 of the employee’s continuous employment** once the employee has completed at least seven years’ continuous service.
