With regards the IR laws (this is becoming an interesting thread!)
The fairness test:
The best fairness test is the employee. Why not let them decide if they would like to give up benefit X for reward Y? That's what the old system was.
I disagree with the employee "fairness test". How can something be fair if its decided by one of the two parties which obviously has a bias towards decisions benefiting themselves? There has to be a "test" or at least an approach to deciding whats fair - the IR system has to be fair on both employers and employees offering both incentives for employers to employ workers and offering employees some flexibility in the process as well.
It has to be made by both people concerned, and both people will have an interest in benefiting themselves. They should be able to decide what's fair on their own, however an external review can help employees recieve more consideration.
Verte, under the old system employees were not allowed to give up certain benefits for other rewards.
