I have a slight variation of that question. If an employer were to say to an employee, 'If you want me to sign you up for the jobseeker scheme, I'll expect you to work the equivalent hours of a $1,500 a fortnight payment,' would that employee would be able to go to the Fair Work Commission and complain? Where would they take that situation?
