Questions without Notice: Wages (3 Feb 2026)

“While it's vital that Australian workers are being paid what they deserve for their days at work, it's even more vital that they have a job in the first place. Minister, can you outline how many more Australians are in work now under the Albanese government and why the dignity of having a job is so important?”

Questions without Notice: Wages (3 Feb 2026)

“Thank you, Minister; that's making a real difference. Minister, wage increases are of top priority for the Albanese Labor government in supporting Australian families. How important is it for wages to continue to keep pace with rising costs, and what would be at risk if wages were cut?”

Questions without Notice: Wages (3 Feb 2026)

“My question is to the Minister representing the Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations, Senator Watt. It's been more than three years since the government's Secure Jobs, Better Pay reform passed the parliament. How much have wages risen since these reforms came into effect? And how is it helping everyday Australians with the cost-of-living challenges?”
