Unions are seeking a $A27-per-week increase in Australia’s minimum wage. The Federal Government’s submission to the Fair Work Commission has broadly supported the view of employers that such an increase would result in job losses. The Government also notes that 61.5 per cent of people who take up a low-paying job tend to leave such positions within one year. Instead, it favours addressing income inequality via the tax-transfer system
