Good morning and welcome 3 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:19,880 Speaker 1: to the Daily OS. It's Monday, the twenty sixth of August. 4 00:00:20,040 --> 00:00:24,120 Speaker 1: I'm Harry, I'm Zara. Starting today, you have a legal 5 00:00:24,200 --> 00:00:28,320 Speaker 1: right to ignore your boss. Legislation over concerns about modern 6 00:00:28,400 --> 00:00:32,640 Speaker 1: workplaces and smartphones invading personal lives is now in effect 7 00:00:33,040 --> 00:00:35,959 Speaker 1: giving workers the right to switch off. You can now 8 00:00:36,040 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 1: legally refuse a call or text from your boss, although 9 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:43,320 Speaker 1: there are some limitations and exceptions. In today's deep dive, 10 00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,040 Speaker 1: we'll take a closer look at what's changing, what this 11 00:00:46,159 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: law means for workers and employers, and what the TDA 12 00:00:49,840 --> 00:00:52,800 Speaker 1: audience told us they think about the right to disconnect. 13 00:00:53,120 --> 00:00:55,040 Speaker 1: But first, Sarah, what's making happ lights. 14 00:00:58,680 --> 00:01:01,520 Speaker 2: The Northern Territory will have its fourth leader in two 15 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 2: years after the Labour government lost this weekend's election. The 16 00:01:05,400 --> 00:01:09,880 Speaker 2: Country Liberal Party defeated Labour in a decisive victory. CLP 17 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:14,480 Speaker 2: leader Leofanochiaro will become the territory's next Chief Minister. In 18 00:01:14,520 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 2: her victory speech, she said, and I quote, the territory 19 00:01:17,520 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 2: of tomorrow will be better than the territory of today. 20 00:01:23,080 --> 00:01:26,160 Speaker 1: Health officials in Queensland have issued a warning amid what 21 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:30,399 Speaker 1: it's called a significant surge in hooping cough cases. The 22 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,720 Speaker 1: state has recorded more than seven thousand confirmed cases so 23 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:37,039 Speaker 1: far this year, compared to one hundred cases this time 24 00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:41,240 Speaker 1: last year. Queensland Health Minister Shannon Fentman is urging the 25 00:01:41,280 --> 00:01:46,760 Speaker 1: community to get vaccinated, especially pregnant people. Vaccination during pregnancy 26 00:01:46,880 --> 00:01:50,840 Speaker 1: also protects the unborn. Baby, infants and older people are 27 00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,559 Speaker 1: among the most at risk of serious illness from hooping cough. 28 00:01:55,040 --> 00:01:58,240 Speaker 1: Fnaman noted there has been a steady decline in childhood 29 00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:02,360 Speaker 1: vaccination rates in recent years. 30 00:02:03,720 --> 00:02:06,440 Speaker 2: There are renewed fears of a regional escalation in the 31 00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,720 Speaker 2: Middle East after Israel and Hesbola exchanged fire over the weekend. 32 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:15,000 Speaker 2: On Sunday, Israel said it preemptively struck quote terror targets 33 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 2: in Lebanon, from which Hesbola was planning to launch their 34 00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:22,360 Speaker 2: attacks on Israeli civilians after the US and Israel received 35 00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 2: intelligence about an imminent attack. Hesbala confirmed on Sunday it 36 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:30,360 Speaker 2: had fired more than three hundred and twenty rockets and 37 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:34,120 Speaker 2: a large number of drones aimed at multiple sites in Israel. 38 00:02:34,680 --> 00:02:37,359 Speaker 2: The Iran backed group based in the south of Lebanon 39 00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:40,240 Speaker 2: claimed the attack was in retaliation for the killing of 40 00:02:40,280 --> 00:02:41,840 Speaker 2: one of its commanders last month. 41 00:02:44,960 --> 00:02:48,000 Speaker 1: And today's good news, the last captive elephant at South 42 00:02:48,040 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 1: Africa's National Zoo has been released back into the wild. Charlie, 43 00:02:52,919 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: the African elephant, was captured in Zimbabwe as a two 44 00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: year old in nineteen eighty four. After forty years in captivos, 45 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,840 Speaker 1: Charlie has now been moved to a ten thousand hectare reserve. 46 00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 1: It follows lengthy negotiations between advocates and the South African 47 00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:12,880 Speaker 1: government after concerns were raised over the elephant's health. Charlie 48 00:03:12,919 --> 00:03:15,919 Speaker 1: will be supported by veterry experts as he gets used 49 00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,960 Speaker 1: to his new home before his planned integration into an 50 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: existing elephant community. 51 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:29,520 Speaker 2: Harry, we are talking about the right to disconnect today 52 00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:32,639 Speaker 2: because these new laws have come into effect that are 53 00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 2: aimed at protecting workers from being contacted by their bosses 54 00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 2: after hours. I do think it would be remissive me 55 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:41,760 Speaker 2: not to acknowledge that this is a funny chat for 56 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,800 Speaker 2: us to have. I am an employer, you are an employee, 57 00:03:44,960 --> 00:03:47,760 Speaker 2: and so you know there might be some difference of 58 00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 2: opinion when it comes to how this might work in reality, 59 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:53,119 Speaker 2: but I'm very keen to jump into it and hear 60 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,200 Speaker 2: all about it. So where did this story all come from? 61 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,520 Speaker 1: So I think before we get stuck into it, I 62 00:03:58,640 --> 00:04:01,000 Speaker 1: just wanted to share some results from a poll we 63 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: did on tda's Instagram stories because we wanted to get 64 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:07,240 Speaker 1: a bit of a sense of what the current situation 65 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: is for workers right around Australia. How often are they 66 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:12,160 Speaker 1: getting contacted by their bosses? 67 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,800 Speaker 2: Did you answer that question, Harry, I did not. 68 00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: I decided to remain impartial being a really good journalist. 69 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,840 Speaker 1: But we asked our followers how often does your boss 70 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:25,680 Speaker 1: contact you out of work? And a huge shout out 71 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,560 Speaker 1: if you're one of the seven thousand, four hundred and 72 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:32,360 Speaker 1: forty people who responded in those twenty four hours that 73 00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,520 Speaker 1: we had our story up. So we love hearing from you, 74 00:04:35,600 --> 00:04:38,479 Speaker 1: so thank you so much. So here's just a quick 75 00:04:38,760 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 1: rundown of how you responded. Two thirds of you said 76 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: you're contacted by your boss outside of work at least sometimes. 77 00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:50,640 Speaker 1: Within that group, sixteen percent said it happens weekly and 78 00:04:50,800 --> 00:04:53,120 Speaker 1: six percent said it happens daily. 79 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 2: Okay, so that is you know fairly quantitative research with 80 00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 2: understanding the scale of I guess the problem that the 81 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:04,479 Speaker 2: federal government has tried to find a solution to. Did 82 00:05:04,520 --> 00:05:07,200 Speaker 2: we have any kind of anecdotal stories, because this, I 83 00:05:07,240 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 2: mean doesn't tell us those sorts of stories from firsthand 84 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,480 Speaker 2: experience what it's like to be contacted by your boss 85 00:05:13,480 --> 00:05:14,120 Speaker 2: out of ours. 86 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,080 Speaker 1: We also had an option for people to share their 87 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,479 Speaker 1: stories with us in the poll, so we heard from 88 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:24,039 Speaker 1: workers across a range of industries, but we especially heard 89 00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:28,960 Speaker 1: from teachers, nurses, and hospitality staff. Lots of nurses and 90 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:32,640 Speaker 1: hospital workers told us that they get messages right through 91 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,479 Speaker 1: the night about shift work, and teachers told us about 92 00:05:35,520 --> 00:05:39,240 Speaker 1: having to be available to speak with parents outside of 93 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,160 Speaker 1: their work hours or they might get a call from 94 00:05:42,240 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: the principal or the head of department, whoever it may be. 95 00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,720 Speaker 1: And there were so many stories to choose from when 96 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:52,080 Speaker 1: it came to a standout, but the winner officially goes 97 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:55,600 Speaker 1: to one of our audience members, Laura, a teacher, and 98 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:59,119 Speaker 1: so Laura told us when she was pregnant and entering 99 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:03,920 Speaker 1: labor literally giving birth, she got a call from her 100 00:06:04,040 --> 00:06:07,240 Speaker 1: boss to ask about whether she'd marked some exams for 101 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 1: a class and wait for it. It wasn't even her class. 102 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 2: Dear God, that one's fairly indefensible. I reckon that. 103 00:06:16,640 --> 00:06:19,159 Speaker 1: Is, so thank you for sharing that with us. Laura. 104 00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:19,680 Speaker 3: Wow. 105 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:22,720 Speaker 2: Okay, so yeah, you're right that one does take the cake. 106 00:06:22,800 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 2: But let's go back to the legislation itself. So it's 107 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,800 Speaker 2: come into effect today, But what's the background here? When 108 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:33,320 Speaker 2: were these reforms formalized in the first place. 109 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: The way we work in twenty twenty four is such 110 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: a different environment compared to workplaces twenty years ago. So 111 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 1: think we didn't have smartphones at the start of this century, 112 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 1: but we're all online now, We're a lot more contactable. 113 00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:53,200 Speaker 1: In fact, in theory, we're kind of at the fingertips 114 00:06:53,240 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: of our bosses twenty four to seven. So basically, the 115 00:06:56,000 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: government tabled some workplace reforms last year, which included a 116 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:04,919 Speaker 1: proposal to address some of the concerns about employee expectations 117 00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: outside of work hours, given that we live in such 118 00:07:07,240 --> 00:07:12,840 Speaker 1: an intrusive modern technology age, and a Senate committee had 119 00:07:12,880 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: examined the draft law and found that some workers were 120 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:20,440 Speaker 1: being driven to exhaustion from some of the pressures about 121 00:07:20,480 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: being available at all hours of the day outside their 122 00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:26,520 Speaker 1: usual hours and the Committee handed down a report in 123 00:07:26,520 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 1: February that said that the right to disconnect was an 124 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:33,840 Speaker 1: aspect of work life balance that needed to be protected legally, 125 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,920 Speaker 1: and so the legislation was passed in that same month. 126 00:07:38,360 --> 00:07:41,520 Speaker 2: Okay, and you said that the government worked with unions 127 00:07:41,560 --> 00:07:43,680 Speaker 2: on this. What did they have to say about it. 128 00:07:44,320 --> 00:07:47,120 Speaker 1: Unions in particular said there was a need to ensure 129 00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:51,520 Speaker 1: work life balance was protected for Australians. I spoke with 130 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:54,960 Speaker 1: Michelle O'Neill, who is the president of the Australian Council 131 00:07:55,000 --> 00:07:58,520 Speaker 1: of Trade Unions, who pointed to some research from the 132 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 1: Australia Institute that found the average employee works two hundred 133 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: and eighty hours of unpaid over time in a single year. 134 00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,120 Speaker 1: The government drafted a law to give work is the 135 00:08:10,200 --> 00:08:14,240 Speaker 1: legal power to quote refuse to monitor, to read or 136 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:18,080 Speaker 1: respond to work related stuff once they've clocked off. 137 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 2: Okay, and I mean I feel like it's sometimes being 138 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,200 Speaker 2: positioned as a fairly black and white issue and that 139 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:29,080 Speaker 2: like you should never contact your colleagues or your employees 140 00:08:29,240 --> 00:08:32,199 Speaker 2: outside of work hours. But what about, say the scenario 141 00:08:32,320 --> 00:08:35,040 Speaker 2: when someone calls in sick at a cafe and the 142 00:08:35,080 --> 00:08:37,840 Speaker 2: manager has to call around to fill that shift, Like, 143 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 2: is that sort of thing covered by the law. 144 00:08:40,000 --> 00:08:43,640 Speaker 1: It's a really good question and definitely one that's worth asking, 145 00:08:43,720 --> 00:08:46,400 Speaker 1: because you're right, it's not necessarily black and white. Things 146 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:50,000 Speaker 1: do change, and so the law states there needs to 147 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:54,920 Speaker 1: be this common sense test of whether contact is reasonable. Okay, 148 00:08:55,280 --> 00:08:57,559 Speaker 1: but what does that mean? Will a cafe owner get 149 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:00,480 Speaker 1: sued for just asking some of their staff to backfill shift? 150 00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,280 Speaker 1: Or well, I get sued because I forgot my loggie 151 00:09:03,280 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: in over the weekend and I need to ask one 152 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:08,600 Speaker 1: of my coworkers for it and I might be interrupting 153 00:09:08,640 --> 00:09:11,160 Speaker 1: their time at the beach. Or will use Zara get 154 00:09:11,200 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: in trouble for sending me an email on a Sunday night. 155 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:17,319 Speaker 1: It's all very valid to us. So I asked the 156 00:09:17,440 --> 00:09:21,560 Speaker 1: Workplace Relations Minister Murray Wat what that could mean in 157 00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: these types of scenarios. 158 00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:26,640 Speaker 3: Most people would say that it's reasonable for an employer 159 00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:29,480 Speaker 3: to call someone to see if they're available for a 160 00:09:29,520 --> 00:09:32,040 Speaker 3: shift when someone has just called in sick or something 161 00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 3: like that. But it's not reasonable for someone to be 162 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 3: contacting someone when they're about to give birth and they 163 00:09:37,440 --> 00:09:40,600 Speaker 3: know that. And equally it's not reasonable I think for 164 00:09:40,679 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 3: an employer to be bombarding people with text messages and 165 00:09:43,720 --> 00:09:47,200 Speaker 3: emails well after their hours when they're not being paid. 166 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 3: That's what this comes down to, is that people work 167 00:09:50,840 --> 00:09:53,440 Speaker 3: when they're paid to work. I think everyone's prepared to 168 00:09:53,480 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 3: accept the odd phone call outside of working hours, but 169 00:09:56,400 --> 00:09:59,960 Speaker 3: if it becomes a pattern, and if it becomes really intrusive, 170 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:03,520 Speaker 3: we say that people shouldn't be expected to put up 171 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:04,920 Speaker 3: with that when they're not being paid. 172 00:10:05,040 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 2: And so I guess the other part of this is 173 00:10:07,040 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 2: the enforcement that so often this communication is happening between 174 00:10:11,880 --> 00:10:15,360 Speaker 2: an employer and an employee and it can be very 175 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 2: difficult to have the transparency or for the employee to 176 00:10:18,480 --> 00:10:22,040 Speaker 2: understand what avenues are available to them if this does 177 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:26,480 Speaker 2: become an issue. So does the law actually set out 178 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,360 Speaker 2: what to do if someone wants to make a complaint 179 00:10:29,360 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 2: about being contacted outside of work hours. 180 00:10:31,640 --> 00:10:34,600 Speaker 1: Yes, it does. So if someone feels like they're being 181 00:10:34,880 --> 00:10:39,040 Speaker 1: unnecessarily asked to do extra work and field calls from 182 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,560 Speaker 1: their bosses, they can bring a complaint to the Fair 183 00:10:41,559 --> 00:10:45,280 Speaker 1: Work Commission. So that's basically the one stop shop for 184 00:10:45,440 --> 00:10:48,920 Speaker 1: workplace disputes around the country. The law can also work 185 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,240 Speaker 1: in the opposite direction if a boss thinks their employee 186 00:10:52,280 --> 00:10:56,720 Speaker 1: is refusing to answer reasonable calls or take requests, they 187 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: can also take that matter to fair work. 188 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:02,600 Speaker 2: Interesting and so, I mean we've spoken a lot about 189 00:11:02,880 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 2: the government and unions and their view on this matter. 190 00:11:06,320 --> 00:11:08,400 Speaker 2: What about the other side of the coin. How have 191 00:11:08,920 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 2: business industry groups, for example, responded to this new legislation 192 00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:14,400 Speaker 2: that is in effect from today. 193 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:18,960 Speaker 1: Some business groups, the Australian Industry Group for example, have 194 00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:22,880 Speaker 1: warned there could be some unintended consequences as a result 195 00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: of this law. Basically they're worried about bosses being overburdened 196 00:11:27,320 --> 00:11:30,000 Speaker 1: with more work or who are going to be too 197 00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:34,160 Speaker 1: scared to call their employees because of this new legislated right. 198 00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: Innis Willis, the CEO of the Australian Industry Group, told 199 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:43,280 Speaker 1: TDA in a statement there's no clear guidance around how 200 00:11:43,320 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 1: the law will potentially be interpreted by regulators and courts, 201 00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:51,640 Speaker 1: and the Coalition aren't exactly cheerleaders for the right to 202 00:11:51,679 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 1: disconnect either. In fact, Peter Dutton, the leader of the Opposition, 203 00:11:55,520 --> 00:11:58,200 Speaker 1: promised to get rid of it altogether if he wins 204 00:11:58,280 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 1: the next federal election. 205 00:12:00,600 --> 00:12:02,359 Speaker 2: I mean that would be a bit of a confusing 206 00:12:02,520 --> 00:12:06,000 Speaker 2: situation to be in for both the boss and the employee. 207 00:12:06,040 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 2: If the election changes and that legislation is repealed, it 208 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,199 Speaker 2: will be fairly difficult to navigate. 209 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 1: I think so. And also what's worth noting is that 210 00:12:16,000 --> 00:12:19,679 Speaker 1: small businesses won't be affected until this time next year, 211 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:25,520 Speaker 1: so anyone the lead there, Harry, so anyone who employees 212 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 1: fifteen or fewer people won't be impacted until August twenty 213 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:35,360 Speaker 1: twenty five. But if the coalition does win government at 214 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: the next federal election, which is due by May next year, 215 00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:41,600 Speaker 1: then we could see a complete reshuffle. We could see 216 00:12:41,920 --> 00:12:45,439 Speaker 1: them not have to even consider this new law altogether. 217 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:48,440 Speaker 1: It depends how the cards fall at the election, and 218 00:12:48,480 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 1: it depends how people vote at the ballot box. 219 00:12:50,559 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, it's just a fascinating story. I'm really 220 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:57,200 Speaker 2: keen to understand the enforcement mechanism and how it will 221 00:12:57,240 --> 00:12:59,960 Speaker 2: actually work in practice, because I think many people agree 222 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:02,440 Speaker 2: with the notion of it that there needs to be 223 00:13:02,520 --> 00:13:05,920 Speaker 2: this work life balance. But understanding and seeing over time 224 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:09,079 Speaker 2: how it plays out, and certainly how many of these 225 00:13:09,080 --> 00:13:11,360 Speaker 2: cases actually do end up with a fair work commission 226 00:13:11,559 --> 00:13:12,960 Speaker 2: I think will be interesting to see. 227 00:13:13,000 --> 00:13:15,960 Speaker 1: And these employee groups will definitely be keeping it close 228 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:18,240 Speaker 1: eye on that as well to see what happens on 229 00:13:18,280 --> 00:13:22,240 Speaker 1: a case by case basis when these different matters go 230 00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:24,600 Speaker 1: into fair work and what fair work does have to say. 231 00:13:24,640 --> 00:13:26,200 Speaker 1: At the end of the day, it'll kind of be 232 00:13:26,400 --> 00:13:26,920 Speaker 1: up to them. 233 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, HARRYT. Look, I promise that I for one will 234 00:13:30,000 --> 00:13:34,280 Speaker 2: not be contacting you post five pm today, so you 235 00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:35,840 Speaker 2: enjoy your evening well. 236 00:13:35,880 --> 00:13:38,080 Speaker 1: From six pm I do have a date with the 237 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:41,360 Speaker 1: Pilate studio, so good luck trying to reach me while 238 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,160 Speaker 1: Bronte is teaching me all things stretching my own legs. 239 00:13:45,240 --> 00:13:46,400 Speaker 1: I need a lot of work on it. 240 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,839 Speaker 2: So oh, look at that. Fair enough, What a good 241 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:51,280 Speaker 2: reason not to respond to me. Thank you so much 242 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:54,000 Speaker 2: for joining us today on the Daily OS. What do 243 00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:56,480 Speaker 2: you think about this piece of legislation? Do you think 244 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,120 Speaker 2: that it is fair? Do you think that it's unfair? 245 00:13:59,360 --> 00:14:01,800 Speaker 2: We want to hear you so you can respond in 246 00:14:01,880 --> 00:14:05,079 Speaker 2: the Spotify notes, but until tomorrow, have a great day. 247 00:14:05,200 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 2: Hope your boss doesn't contact you.
