The Coalition have abandoned their plan to stop public servants working from home, but have they abandoned their views on this flexible work practice? Were these views based on the evidence? See our WFH briefing paper by Fiona Macdonald for the facts on WFH

We led the world to the 8 hour day. Private profit 🆙 by 97% in the last decade while wages 🆙 just 50%. Time to share the results of our sweat more fairly. Time to reduce working hours. Let’s trial the 4 day week.
After a century of Monday to Friday, could the 4-day week finally be coming to Australia?
A four-day working week would be trialled in certain industries, under an election policy from the Greens, who could share the balance of power in a hung parliament.

House prices are rising faster than people can save.
If you earn the average male full time income (more than 80% of people) and started saving 10 years ago, you'd be no closer to buying a house today.
It's past time to fix this. @grogsgamut.bsky.social explains. #auspol

For too long, we've been working too hard without enjoying the real returns. Let's pave the way and make the four day work week a reality!
If you want change, you have to vote for it 💚

🚨 Time for a 4-day work week! 🚨
Aussies have been working hard for decades & not seeing a fair share of the results. The Greens will pave the way for a 4-day week through Aus-wide trials by a new National Institute for the Four Day Work Week. If you want change, vote for it!💚

Private providers have rorted the employment services system while job seekers have faced poverty & homelessness. The Greens will bring back the CES, abolish mutual obligations & hire more Centrelink staff to bring phone wait times to under 5 mins - putting people first.

Not McKinsey’s first corruption rodeo. But coming back from this? ‘McKinsey will pay $US650 million (A$$1 billion) to end a criminal probe by the US Justice Department into the company's role in bolstering sales of addictive pain pills’
