Australian workers have been getting a raw deal on wages.
Wages actually being stolen, that is, unlawful underpayment, and then there’s the terrible bargaining power that has seen real wages flat-line for the last decade.
That’s one of the issues the Labor party campaigned on to get into office, and now that they’re in office, it's proving hard to change.
Ben Schneiders has been investigating the wage problem for years, he’s an investigative journalist with The Age and author of “Hard Labour: Wage Theft in the Age of Inequality."
