It should have been there from the beginning. The whole reason for awards in the beginning were that they would provide security for low paid workers who do not have bargaining power as individuals, because they are replaceable. These people always require some protection from exploitation and if the Howard government couldnt see that from the beginning then how many other economic policies did they really get wrong
