My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations, Senator Watt. Last year's Secure Jobs, Better Pay reforms were passed to get wages moving again for Australian workers and to reinvigorate Australia's enterprise bargaining system. Despite wages increasing, worker wages and conditions are still being undermined by some employers who rely on loopholes within the Fair Work Act. What are the loopholes that some employers are using to undercut worker pay and conditions? And how is the Albanese government acting to close those loopholes?
