Another good policy announcement from Labor today, via The Australian:
Ripped-off workers will be able to make individual claims for up to $100,000 in unpaid wages to a new small claims jurisdiction under a federal Labor plan to crack down on wage theft and avoid costly court action.
In the latest policy pledge designed to make Saturday’s election a “referendum on wages”, Labor will today announce plans to set up a small claims jurisdiction to give workers an efficient and effective avenue to reclaim unpaid wages.
