Written by: parisalexandra - Posted in: Job Articles

Retailers Association stated that, with the new Fair Work rules and regulations it might perhaps be the reason of more than 3000 retail jobs lost in New South Wales, Queensland, the ACT and South Australia reported through Herald Sun. The system is recently started through Federal Government, also the first execution of the country’s primary nationwide workplace relations system.

However Tony Abbot, leader of the opposition with his spokesman Bruce Billson came together with The Retailers Association in Sydney to speak out the concerns and questions in regards with the new system.

“The new cost burdens on small businesses via the Rudd IR laws will cost over 3,000 retail jobs in NSW, Queensland, ACT and South Australia alone,” The Retailers Association national executive director Scott Driscoll said.

Unfortunately, Mr Abbott called for a suspension on trials in opposition to small businesses for unintentional violation on the new administrative centre.
