OM DETTA AVSNITT
Right now a federal parliamentary inquiry is looking into national employment standards across Australia.
One of the key issues being considered is whether or not Australian workers should be entitled to paid reproductive leave, on top of existing sick leave entitlements.
Unions want workers to have access to at least 10 days of leave, which could be used for things like IVF, menstrual pain, vasectomies, endometriosis and other chronic conditions.
So how would that work? What impact would it have? And can businesses afford it?In this week's deep dive we break down how reproductive leave could work in Australia and the latest push to have it legislated.
Guests:
- Michelle O'Shea, Senior lecturer, School of Business at Western Sydney University
