"INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS REFORMS PUT MONEY AHEAD OF HUMANITY"
Concerns that the level of disadvantage to many Australians will increase if the proposed changes to the Industrial Relations legislation are adopted, continue to be expressed by a variety of church and welfare agencies.
Seeing the reforms as an attempt to put money ahead of humanity, the Social Action Office, a body sponsored by the leaders of Religious Congregations in Queensland, has launched a campaign to raise awareness and promote discussion about the effects of the changes.
The SAO is concerned that the proposed changes will impact heavily on the rights of the most vulnerable workers and their families - especially those on low-incomes, those who work part-time and casual hours. The SAO expresses particular concern regarding the vulnerable situation outworkers may find themselves in.
All information relating to the campaign can be found at the Social Action Office website where several lobbying strategies are suggested including an online petition to the Senate and postcards to Senators.
