STOLEN! - Wage Theft as a Crime

Wednesday, 28 February 2018 - 8:30am to 9:00am

This week on the show we look at wage theft. In the throes of an election, the SA Premier Jay Weatherill has announced that if re-elected, his government will introduce a new criminal offence for bosses who deliberately or recklessly underpay their workers. We learn more about the announcement from SA Unions Secretary Joe Szakacs. We also speak with Victorian hospitality worker and union activist Kim about her personal story of wage theft and what workers are doing to fight back.
