Sky News host Jaimee Rogers discusses negotiations for a new enterprise agreement covering almost 200,000 federal public servants. “The average Australian doesn’t get to negotiate a four-day working week while expecting the same pay,” Ms Rogers said. “Australia has a productivity problem; the Reserve Bank has warned about it, business groups have warned about it, and so have economists. “Yet instead of talking about lifting productivity, we’re talking about working fewer days.”
