No WorkChoices in WA
Troy Buswell and the State Government have appointed a former Howard Government industrial relations advocate to review Western Australian workplace laws and will soon announce changes that could affect up to 300,000 Western Australian workers.
The last State Liberal Government introduced individual contracts and cut minimum standards for Western Australian workers and the Howard Government abolished the award safety net with its unfair WorkChoices laws.
Troy Buswell is on record as saying he supports individual contracts and Colin Barnett said he supported WorkChoices.
There is a real danger that Mr Buswell and Mr Barnett will implement WorkChoices style changes in Western Australia that will see minimum standards cut for up to 300,000 Western Australian workers.
There is also a very real danger that the introduction of WorkChoices style changes and the cutting of minimum standards for more than 120,000 public sector workers in Western Australia could make it harder to recruit people in the new Gorgon-led boom and could impact adversely on important public services, including health, education, policing, child protection, mine safety and environmental protection.
