Show Notes
The social impacts of Australia’s housing crisis are well documented, and we’re starting to feel its effect on business.
“We know in Sydney, for example, the housing crisis costs the economy $10 billion a year. So it is not just a social crisis, it's a productivity and economic crisis as well.”
Professor Philip Oldfield, Head of School at UNSW Built Environment, explains how a lack of affordable housing near major employment hubs is impacting the people who work there, and how businesses can build better workplaces.
