with new concessions on casual employment, prompting a fresh warning from miner BHP that the plan would add to inflationary pressure and undermine international competitiveness.
However, employers raised concerns that new casual misrepresentation laws also in the bill would mean businesses could not engage casuals on a regular basis, even if the workers chose not to convert, due to the risk of back pay and fines.The misrepresentation law requires the courts to have regard to the reality of a casuals’ work in deciding if they are really permanent and whether they have a firm advance commitment of continuing work.
BHP’s vice president for government relations, Nick Park, told a Senate committee scrutinising Labor’s plans that Mr Burke was “amending the bill via the media”. “We don’t want Australian mines to be the first ones turned off when there’s a downturn in the coal price,” he said. “We want them to be the last.”
