He said the chamber’s focus would be on issues around skills, participation, migration and industrial relations, noting there had to be agreement on proposals that could be implemented almost immediately and some that would form part of the October budget. “More people are wanting to work part-time; many are looking to transition to retirement and approaching their employer seeking to convert to casual contracts; others want to control their own hours and operate as sole traders; and very few employees are taking advantage of provisions that allow them to request a conversion of their casual employment contract into a permanent position,” he said.

Taylor said maintaining the Reserve Bank’s independence was pivotal to keeping inflation low and the jobs market strong.
