Labor will stop unfair labour hire practices
There are too many workers in Australia subject to unfair labour hire practices, often treated like second class citizens with lower wages, worse conditions and no job security.
The precarious nature of work makes it much harder for many workers to plan ahead – to pay the bills, to apply for a home loan, or even to secure a rental property.
That is why Labor today announced legislative reforms to crack down on dodgy labour hire companies that rip off and exploit workers across the country.
A Shorten Labor Government will implement legislation to ensure that workers employed through a labour hire company will receive the same pay and conditions as people employed directly.
Two people working side by side with the same skills and experiences doing the same job should be paid the same. It’s not fair to pay workers less just because they’re labour hire
