....but wouldn't be surpassed if there was behind the scenes pressure/influence on FWA to lean to the worker's side of the claims, simply because of Government anger at the tricks played by Joyce & Qantas WRT the grounding, and the lack of communication to the Government.
Especially as the Victorian medical authority are considering the same flaw in the FWA legislation to hobble the Victorian nurses!
The majority of Australia's ordinary workers were covered (and many still are) by the award system. State or federal.
Jarse. It was fundamental to Australia's pre AWA industrial legislation that every worker in Australia was covered by an Award. All workers are still covered by an Award except those exempt by virtue of a
registered EBA, which must pass the no disadvantage test.
