Business groups are lobbying Peter Dutton and the Coalition to cut workers’ pay and conditions ahead of the federal election.
If annual wage growth had continued at the same low rate as under the last Coalition government, the average Australian worker’s wages or salary would be $4,700 less today.
Peter Dutton has already committed to turning secure jobs into casual jobs, repealing the right to disconnect and standing against minimum standards for gig workers.

In Australia, your rights as a worker can differ when it comes to your type of employment, especially when it comes to your health and safety, job security, wages and entitlements on the job.
Thanks to new laws which union members won this year, gig economy workers are entitled to the pay, rights and benefits that other workers enjoy.
