We Cannot Pay Full Time Bills With Part Time Pay

March jobs figures show rise in insecure work   Sad
19 April 2018


     actu release

Labour force data released today shows that full-time work opportunities for Australians are declining, and being replaced by part-time and insecure work.   Sad



Full-time jobs decreased by 19,900 on a seasonally adjusted basis, and were replaced by 24,800 part time jobs.



With 40% of the workforce now facing one or more dimensions of insecurity in their work, the figures are further proof that the Turnbull Government has failed to deliver more secure jobs for working Australians.



The number of people unemployed has remained virtually static at 5.5%.



The numbers were released as ACTU modelling showed that a $50 increase to the minimum wage – the amount requested in the peak body’s submission to the Fair Work Commission – would create between 40,000 and 57,000 jobs in the first year of higher wages.



Quotes attributable to ACTU Secretary Sally McManus:



“Australians need more secure jobs. We cannot pay full-time bills with part-time pay.



“People who want full-time work are finding it harder than ever to get, and these figures illustrate that.



“The Turnbull Government could urge the Fair Work Commission to raise the minimum wage by $50 a week tomorrow, and create tens of thousands of jobs over the next year if they wanted to.



“The Turnbull Government is in denial. They’re focussed on their $65 billion big business tax handout, and they’re won’t acknowledge the nation-wide problem of insecure work and unfair pay.   Sad



“But we live in the real world with working people, and we know that Australia needs a pay rise, and we need more secure jobs.”

Unfortunately knight , they are appealing to a government who couldn't give two hoots about the normal working man. Donations to the liberal coffers drive their decisions and always have done.

Maybe we should monetise the $130 billion of free overtime that workers are required to work in Australia each year. That would create a lot of full time jobs.

It can't be helped that it is in the interest of coalition to keep people in insecure work.  It keeps people worrying about the day-to-day things instead of stopping coalition's major policy of transferring public money to private purses.

The Liberals care very deeply about the average working person both individually and collectivly, they have made a career out of screwing them at every opportunity.

How predictable, the GetUp! inspired gloom and doom BlackDay is obediently parroting that extremist Commo Socialist feminazi sheila who wants to bring back the extremist union chaos of the 70s.

The irrelevant redundant superfluous unions with ONLY 10% "membership" and falling daily don't represent anything other than themselves and so they are trying to exploit the low wage growth with farcical arguments that take NO account of the actual productivity of the workers and the fact that the Australian industries are in DIRECT competition with overseas suppliers who don't have to put up with this destructive union menace.

Auggie, just because you don't understand the topic then it is no excuse for you to ILLEGALLY MISQUOTE another poster.

If you were half aware you would know that ACTU sheila is authorizing the fabricated adverts on the TV which are trying to exploit the current low wages growth which is a result of the slowly recovering shattered economy caused by Labor.

If we use the ACTU logic on this a tax cut would achieve the same thing.

The minimum wage is already too high how much is unskilled labor really worth.
