It will free up the labour market, but it's going to hurt a lot of base level workers.
It shows who the current government's allegiences are to.
The electorate is just a vast herd of tax revenue generating drones to be grazed on without a second thought.
There is more unhappiness to come.

i think they stink, the pain will happen when everyones existing contracts or employment changes then they are under the new laws. in my case my company has just been sold so our exsisting agreements expired so we come under the new laws. so i am currently reading the laws to determin hat i have lost.
I do agree that small business should have the right to hire and fire but i dont agree to achive this the goverment has the right to take away my basic rights
and excluded themself fro these laws.
I also belive the unions had the power to stop this before they went through parliment but they sat on their arses and did nothing so the net result of that is the labour party can claim they will remove the laws when they get voted in but since the liberals have contrill of the senate they cant change nothing
for 6 years unless they force a double disalution and win the election with controll of both houses.
thats my 2 cents worth

Personally i think the Unions are trying to scare their members, while the new laws will i'm sure cause some people to be sacked, most employers are not going to get rid of good workers
Workers have now been made more responsible for their own work ethics...something i'm sure will weed out the ''appearance money" worker
While i've seen some cases where the employers have mass sacked and then re-employed their workers on lower wages, etc. There has not been the predicted amount that the Unions and Labour party said would happen. Now the goverment is saying they cant do that anyway. As in the case of the meatworks, they were made to reinstate the workers as they were employed originally.
I'm a Union member...but i just get the feeling there's a bit of scare tactics going on here
