Part 3/11:
The upcoming roundtable is structured over three days, with one dedicated solely to discussions on increasing productivity and wealth creation. Interestingly, four out of the three days’ guests are from the ACTU (Australian Council of Trade Unions), which has recently shifted focus. Instead of pushing for measures that genuinely boost productivity, ACTU leaders are advocating for a four-day workweek with the same pay and fewer hours. This proposal has sparked contention among commentators who argue it risks undermining business viability and economic growth.
