The fact that the Albanese government needs to exempt small businesses from its 'same job, same pay' legislation means it’s bad for all businesses, says Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry CEO Andrew McKellar. Small Businesses will be exempt from the Labor government's 'same job, same pay' laws as the reforms are delayed by 12 months. “We think the government should rethink this legislation, we will urge the Senate to look very carefully at it and ultimately we think the Senate should reject this legislation,” Mr McKellar told Sky News Australia.
