In the past few weeks there have been an increasing number of stories of workers who, to maintain their job, have been forced away from collective agreements onto AWAs, where fixed hours of work, penalty rates, annual leave, leave loading, and even sick leave in some instances, has been traded away with the only benefit being a small increase in the hourly rate of pay--an increase that if calculated out, comes nowhere near to compensating for the conditions lost. While these tactics offer a degree of security, it comes nowhere near the high level of certainty that digitally signed electronic documents provide. Already, there are fears of the kind of "stagflation" of the oil-shocked 1970s, although inflation comes nowhere near the double-digit levels that were seen then. |
