Workers would be given the power to bargain collectively over everything from the sustainability of workplaces to a better deal for women, under industrial relations changes proposed by the Greens.
The NSW Senate candidate Lee Rhiannon yesterday announced a series of industrial relations proposals. They include:
Increasing from two weeks to three the amount of time sacked workers have to claim unfair dismissal.
Abolishing the controversial building industry watchdog, the Australian Building and Construction Commission.
Dumping the national occupational health and safety laws proposed by the Gillard government for a tougher model or one that exempts NSW.
Allowing unions to enter workplaces to recruit members and investigate alleged breaches of wage agreements.
