For some employers, wage theft has become part of their business model, and it costs workers an estimated $1.35 billion every year.
It happens across industries – from construction to health care, from retail to accommodation – and disproportionately affects vulnerable workers like women, young people and migrants.
Across Australia, a worker who steals from the till is committing a crime - but in most states and territories an employer who steals their workers’ wages is not.This is completely unfair.

Has Abbott the 'economic rationalist' discussed this with his Pope? Guess "foreign aid" is equally an irrational waste of time along with global efforts to vaccinate people in a pandemic. Lets "the economic dice roll" on climate change and keep selling coal because that is profit.
How Much is Life Worth when Abbott's god no Abbott determines how the cards on Inequality. Dr Mengele asked himself the same question when confronted with all those Jews and Gypsies and decided they'd be of some utilitarian use if experimented on. Life is precious but Abbott's more so than many others. What is the cut off point that determines non intervention Mr Abbott?
