IR laws
ok A) Do you know anyone PERSONALLY that has been disadvantaged by these laws?
B) Have you read the legislation in its entirety?
C) Do you do understand economics and/or law?
If you can't establish these 3 things please go and do them before making a comment on Howard's IR reforms.
The fairness test was a very good test for ensuring the balance between flexibility and fairness between employers and employees. As you can see with our amazingly low unemployment rates the new IR reforms have worked nicely . Not looking forward to Rudd's roll back (which generally seems to be the labor government's policy when its not copying Howard...) which will most likely increase unemployment .
A- yes
B- no, but i understand the basics of it.
C - yes a bit
The IR laws were good to a few people,like the mining industry but to the minority it was bad. Are you telling me that firing a woker and then offering there job back with lower pay is good? Are you telling me taking away a workers holidays ect and making them work longer for less pay is good?
