Jobs galore for workers

AUSTRALIA'S unemployable have apparently given up looking for work.
A dramatic slump in the number of Australians actually "in the jobs market" last month has helped the nation's unemployment rate to dip to a 30-year low of 4.6 per cent, 0.2 per cent lower than the September figure.

In Queensland the unemployment rate is now just 4 per cent, a figure almost unimaginable even two years ago.

Such historically low figures effectively mean nobody should be out of a job, economists said yesterday.

They speculated that the fall in the participation rate was a result of a band of "disillusioned jobseekers" having just given up.

Now this is a well orchastrated ploy by governments supported finacially by big business in this country to make it look like people don't want to work so they can import workers and lower wage rates!

I can give a clear example of how this works through my latest experience.

I went to Centrelink to ask for help getting back into the workforce becuase of my illness and employers being totally discriminating against people with an illness that require modifications to hours of work and the like.

Now Centrelink referred me to an employment agency called steps and then they set up an interview in the Steps office. But here is how corrupt they are, Centrelink staff actually conducted the interview in the Steps employment services office and making out the were Steps Employment Support Service workers but the shifty corrupt government workers undertook a reassessment of my illness possing as Steps workers when they were actually centrelink staff.

This is crap, you go and ask for help and they play games with your life.

But further, this so called support agency Steps writes to my doctor asking for evidence of my illness and dissability!

What sort of approach is that???? Certainly they could write to the doctors and ask what sort of assistance they could offer or what modifications would need to be made to assist me back into the workforce would be more supportive.

But no they just call you a liar, even after being on the pension for soooo many years and having so many doctors reports already. So now I have to get more things cut out of my body for tests, undergo more x-rays (20 odd at the one time), see specialists and the like instead of getting assistance back into the workplace.

But it's clear it's about keeping people disgruntled and not looking for work so they can lower the wage rates by importing workers from overseas.
