With the advent of our new Federal Government, the time is ripe for change. Labor is promising a raft of changes, ranging from cutting red tape for small business, to restoring unfair dismissal protection, introducing an entitlement of up to 24 months parental leave on the birth of a child and encouraging small business to gain a greater share of the annual $26 billion government procurement market. What do you think the change in government means for SMEs? Will Labor’s promised changes eventuate? If so, what will be the key impacts; and how should business owners adapt to the new government? Please share your thoughts by submitting a comment to this blog post OR email us at policy@abn.org.au with your thoughts.
