24.01.2022 Proposed Reforms for State Industrial Relations As a former Industrial Relations Inspector, I believe the decision to include piece rate workers, those paid solely by commission and domestic workers in private homes under the definition of employee is a step in the right direction. Cleaners, gardeners and babysitters will then have a right to be paid at least the Minimum wage. The Final Report of the Ministerial Review of the State Industrial Relations System (the Review) w...as tabled in State Parliament on 11 April 2019. The Final Report makes a total of 85 recommendations for reform of the State industrial relations system to ensure it is modern, fair and accessible. The McGowan Government is taking action to reform the State industrial relations system, and implement many of the recommendations of the Final Report of the Review. The first round of legislative reforms will focus on increased protection for workers. The key reforms are: The Industrial Relations Act 1979 (IR Act) will be amended to introduce an entitlement for workers to seek an order from the Western Australian Industrial Relations Commission (WAIRC) to stop bullying at work. These provisions will be based on those in the Commonwealth Fair Work Act 2009 (FW Act). A legislative equal remuneration framework will be provided for the WAIRC to deal with applications for equal remuneration orders and requiring it to develop an equal remuneration principle. These provisions will be based on those in the Queensland Industrial Relations Act 2016. The definitions of employee in State industrial laws will be amended to remove the following existing exclusions: persons engaged in domestic service in a private home (IR Act and Minimum Conditions of Employment Act 1993 (MCE Act)); persons remunerated wholly by commission, percentage reward or piece rates (MCE Act and Minimum Conditions of Employment Regulations 1993 (Regulations)); persons with a disability in supported employment (MCE Act and Regulations); and persons appointed under the National Trust of Australia (WA) Act 1964 to carry out the duties of wardens (MCE Act and Regulations).
