Government unveils new plan to tackle unemployment | ABC NEWS
The federal government has proposed changes to Australia’s $2 billion employment services system to make it “more responsive, effective and dignified” and could change the way 1 million Australians access the JobSeeker payment.
The biggest is the creation of three distinct service streams, with different levels of assistance depending on an individual’s readiness to work, to replace the current “one-size-fits-all” approach.
Minister for Employment and Workplace Relations Amanda Rishworth said this included an “effective, fair and proportionate” mutual obligations system.
