Australian Mines & Metals Association CEO Steve Knott has called for Employment Minister Michaelia Cash to implement an independent review of the Fair Work Commission. Knott has accused the FWC of being "highly dysfunctional" and politicised, and says several senior members of the FWC have told him that they intend to retire early for these reasons. Knott has also urged the Federal Government to pursue industrial relations reforms such as changes to unfair dismissal laws and restricting unions’ right to access workplaces.
