ONEX Shipyards signs agreement with for eco vessels

ONEX Shipyards and Technologies Group has announced a strategic agreement with Antipollution, a member of the V Group, for the design and construction of four state-of-the-art ecological vessels with an option for four additional units. The agreement was signed at the Posidonia 2026 international exhibition in the presence of Greece’s Minister of Shipping and Island Policy, Vasilis Kikilias, underscoring the project’s significance for the national economy and international shipping. The vessels will be designed and built entirely in Greece, utilising the combined capabilities of ONEX’s Elefsina Shipyards and the historic Syros Shipyards at Neorio. Classification will be provided by ABS, guaranteeing quality, safety and environmental excellence. The new eco vessels will incorporate advanced technologies for the collection of ship-generated waste and its transport to land-based facilities in compliance with the strictest international MARPOL convention standards, while their design also prepares them for operations in conditions of marine pollution and maritime emergencies.

$3.2 billion lost: ABNs are being used to underpay migrant workers — time for an urgent fix

Recent reporting shows employers are increasingly using Australian Business Numbers (ABNs) to misclassify and short-change workers, costing a cohort of employees about $3.2 billion a year. Many bosses are perpetrating underpayment through 11‑digit ABNs, exposing cracks in enforcement and labour protections.

Community angle

Local communities rely on fair workplaces. When migrant workers are underpaid through ABN misclassification it not only harms those individuals and their families, it also corrodes wages and conditions for everyone in sectors that depend on migrant labour. Ordinary Australians should care because wage theft distorts competition, pressures services and undermines social cohesion.

One Nation's super plan: risky short-term relief that could hollow out retirements

One Nation proposes letting renters and mortgage holders divert part of their superannuation into take-home pay for up to three years. It looks like a quick fix for cost-of-living pressures, but risks long-term harm to retirement savings and shifts responsibility from governments to individuals.

Community angle

Many Australians juggling rent or mortgage payments will understand the immediate appeal of extra cash now. But ordinary savers should also be warned that draining super balances to pay living costs transfers future hardship to older Australians and increases pressure on the public purse. This affects tenants, homeowners, retirees and taxpayers alike.
