$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

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.
