Episode description

Often, when commentators and journalists talk about the economy, they discuss it as though workers - the people that drive all economics - don't matter.

We here at 'On the Job' know that's daft. An economy without workers is nothing. 

That's what this weeks' podcast is all about.

We're joined in discussion by the Director of the Centre for Future Work at the Australia Institute, Dr. Jim Stanford, Dr. Fiona Macdonald, Policy Director, Social and Industrial with the Centre for Future Work, and Dr. Mark Dean, the Laurie Carmichael Distinguished Research Fellow at the Carmichael Centre, to talk about economics for workers.
