Pressure mounts on labor to push forward PTSD work reforms

Pressure mounts on labor to push forward PTSD work reforms
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

Labor finds itself in the throes of intensifying pressure to swiftly push through pivotal segments of its proposed workplace reform package.

A surprising collaboration between the crossbench and the coalition is compelling the government to take action.

The proposed legislation encompasses a sweeping overhaul of workplace laws, addressing a critical issue—the closure of a loophole that currently allows companies to negotiate pay rates with their employees, subsequently undermining the remuneration for labor hire workers. This legislation also seeks to provide enhanced safeguards for gig economy workers and create more viable pathways for certain casual workers to transition into permanent roles.

Originally, Labor had aimed to secure the passage of the legislation by year’s end. However, the Senate, in a joint move, has opted to defer an inquiry into the laws until early next year. This development has stirred opposition from both the opposition and several business interest groups.

Nevertheless, four aspects of the reforms have garnered broad support. Foremost among these provisions is the simplification of the process for frontline responders to file claims related to post-traumatic stress disorder, effectively eliminating the need to prove its origin in the workplace.

Other elements encompass bolstered protections for workers enduring domestic violence and small businesses, along with the classification of deadly silica dust in the same category as asbestos, thereby subjecting it to more rigorous regulation and enhancing support for affected workers. It’s worth noting that exposure to silica dust can lead to the incurable ailment known as silicosis.

Independent Senators David Pocock and Jacqui Lambie are poised to introduce private bills aimed at ushering Labor’s less contentious propositions into the parliamentary arena. Senator Pocock underscored the necessity for a comprehensive examination of the intricate legislation, a need highlighted by the testimonies provided during the inquiry. Simultaneously, he emphasized the urgency of addressing presumptive legislation for first responders seeking access to Comcare for PTSD, a measure that can be promptly implemented.

While Shadow Attorney-General Michaelia Cash voiced the opposition’s support for this course of action, the coalition remains steadfast in its resistance to the broader reforms. The coalition contends that the proposed changes, especially the revised definition of casual employment, will exacerbate the challenges faced by small businesses already grappling with operational costs, potentially causing significant harm to productivity and employment.

Conversely, the Australian Industry Group maintains that these changes would impede investment and fail to create jobs, as they would impose additional regulatory and compliance burdens on employers. The government and labor unions vehemently dispute this claim, asserting that enabling certain casual workers to transition to permanent positions and ensuring equitable pay rates for gig workers will ultimately uplift wage levels and job security.

Senator Lambie has decried the government’s strategy of bundling the widely accepted reforms with the more contentious elements to pressure the crossbench into passing the entire legislative package.

In response, Employment Minister Tony Burke has firmly rejected the idea of separating the package, arguing that the comprehensive set of measures is indispensable for bolstering both wage levels and worker protections.
