There's a lot of talk about 'productivity' & how if we just work harder & be more productive then wages will increase

Well, lets have a proper discussion about productivity

Employers holding workers to ransom over productivity are making record profits.

Productivity comes about when employers provide better work environments without compromising on safety.

Productivity comes about when employees feel valued.

Productivity comes about when govts invest the same amount in every child's education.

Productivity comes about when employers have integrity and promote the best ppl to the job, not promotions based on cronyism, favouritism, nepotism

Productivity comes about when workers have a living wage & don't come to work hungry or stressed about money

Productivity comes about when employees & employers are on the same page, working in unison for common goals.

Productivity comes about when employees feel respected by their employers.

Productivity comes about when wrongdoing is met with justice & consequence. When the supposed 'leaders' of society & upper echelons of business & politics continually get away with blue murder it kills productivity.

Productivity comes about when Australians don't feel every system is stacked against them.

Productivity comes about when inequality is low.

Productivity comes about when everyone can see the big picture & work together for mutual, long term benefit.

Productivity comes about when we have political, community & biz leaders with integrity who are fair, balanced, measured & who care about ppl.

Productivity comes about when Australian employers & employees work together as a community for the good of all.

Productivity is a holistic exercise that cannot be improved by putting the onus on one cohort or another, it takes all working in unison.

Productivity begins with a healthy, educated citizenry and that is the core responsibility of govt.

Productivity comes about when the rewards of increased productivity are shared by all society. When big companies pay less tax than their average employee then that kills productivity.

Workers rightfully ask: what's the point of even trying?

#auspol #Bee4Fadden

Productivity is a shared responsibility & the rewards of increased productivity must also be shared and seen to be shared.

Productivity is only achievable if we work together & not use it as a political football to demonize & divide Australians.
