“Activism in the Fair Work Commission: A Wake-Up Call for Employers”

In this firecracker episode, we take the gloves off and call out an alarming trend: ideological activism embedded in the Fair Work Commission and Fair Work Ombudsman.

With a controversial decision just handed down, targeting modern awards through the lens of gender-based undervaluation, we ask the tough questions no one else is willing to:

  • Is the Commission becoming a political weapon?

  • Are employers being punished in the name of “equality”?

  • Who really ends up paying for 30–64% award wage hikes? (Spoiler: it’s you.)

From pharmacy and childcare to aged care and health services, this episode exposes how well-meaning social agendas can destroy small business viability, and why this kind of economic activism is completely misplaced.

🔥 Expect bold takes, raw truth, and the kind of HR commentary that actually defends employers.

If you’re tired of being the one paying the price for other people’s ideologies, this one is for you.
