I don’t think it will increase jobs as much people are predicting. If businesses employ more people it means more costs such as Workcover, Payroll Tax ad compulsory superannuation contributions.

Apparently this will lead to more jobs and I do hope there is truth in the statement. Time will tell.

Yep. And apparently now it’s been approved for some work sectors, they say to expect it to pop up in a lot more. It would be hard fir the workers. I just hope the employers do what they say they’ll do with the money they’ll save from this and create more jobs

  It will indeed be hard for workers to readjust their budgets with the loss of income/wages. Interesting – I cannot recall recent cuts to politicians wages?
