Talk about selective quoting FSM! You've completely changed the context of what I wrote.

If you have a situation where you need to make a worker redundant and Worker A is an ASM whereas Worker B is a minority female on a 457 visa, both of whom have the same written legal rights, why would you make B redundant when they also have the options of placing the racist card, the sexist card and the harshness test cited previously? Add the fact you've paid for their visa and once they are redundant the odds are they will have to leave the country whereas the local will usually be available to rehire if things pick up and the case for keeping Worker B gets quite a bit of backup. So why would you make B redundant?

In short, you wouldn't, it makes no sense.
