The ALP's eight-point plan to modernise Australia’s Industrial Relations laws was an “attack on Labour hire” according to Australian Industry Group Chief Executive Innes Willox. Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese unveiled a strategy for an Industrial Relations overhaul on Wednesday night, saying the next election will not be a referendum on the pandemic but on jobs.
However, Mr Willox said “it’s an eight-point plan that sadly wasn’t unveiled with consultation … and sends us backwards when it comes to the ability to create jobs”. “It sadly demonstrated a lack of understanding of where our economy is at and what is needed to drive jobs growth”. Mr Willox said the reaction from business was mostly negative, pointing out “there wasn’t a lot here for business to like”.

Entitlements pushed by Labor IR reform ‘amounts to a tax’ on business | Sky News AustraliaAustralian Industry Group Chief Executive Innes Willox says the eight-point IR reform plan unveiled by Opposition Leader Anthony Albanese could be a “major disincentive” for hiring and would introduce “rigidity” into the workforce. \n\nOpposition Leader Anthony Albanese unveiled a strategy for an Industrial Relations overhaul on Wednesday night, saying the next election will not be a referendum on the pandemic but on jobs.\n\nIt included a promise to let contractors who move between jobs transfer their annual and sick leave entitlements and would also give government contracts to companies which offer secure work options.\n\n“In many ways it does amount to a tax” Mr Willox said, adding the IR measures pushed by Labor could ultimately “drive us backwards” in terms of economic and employment growth.\n\nHe said the ‘same job, same pay’ proposal was “essentially an attempt to wind back labour hire” which is covered by the fair work commission needed in various sectors for seasonal work and to fix skills shortages.\n\nMr Willox said the IR reform package developed by the government “wasn’t perfect,” it was the product of six months of consultation with business and unions and “an advance” on the Labor option. \n AlboMP
