   While modern awards will generally operate from 1 January 2010, a number of modern awards include a model phasing schedule under which pay rates and some related entitlements will be phased in progressively to assist affected employers and employees in the move to the modern award system.
   Under the model phasing schedule, any increases or decreases in wages, loadings, penalty rates and shift allowances will be phased in over 5 equal instalments from 1 July 2010 to 1 July 2014. Where there was no existing loading or penalty applying under the existing instrument then the new loading or penalty in the modern award is also progressively introduced.
   Subject to other specific transitional provisions which may be contained in certain modern awards, all other entitlements under modern awards apply from 1 January 2010.
   
   Foreign student in Australia has to consult with his relevant modern award for specific transitional arrangements.
