At a guess... the minimum wage rise will eventually flow through to every other award/EBA. At a time we arent increasing our productivity, but arguably, going backwards in that regard. Look at the amount of office workers resisting calls to return to the office, workers 'quiet quitting' etc. People at the bottom are getting smashed by inflation, but ultimately, they're the ones whose job security is most sensitive to labour rates, so I suspect they'll be the ones thrown first on the scrap heap when business begins tightening its belt. Something tells me 2023 won't be a merry xmas...
