00:00Importantly, the Federal Court has today sent a powerful message to Corporate Australia
00:06that if you engage in this sort of behaviour, you will be held to account.
00:10You will be ordered to compensate people.
00:12And most importantly, you will be ordered to compensate people for the hardship,
00:18for the distress, for the suffering that you have caused.
00:21Can we say it like this?
00:23Now is the time to show whether or not you have turned a new leaf.
00:29Are you going to put the last four years of pain and suffering you have put these workers through behind you
00:35and say, alright, enough is enough is enough.
00:38Let's work with the union, let's work with these workers
00:42to get as quickly and as efficiently and as cost-effectively justice and fairness
00:49into the back pockets of these people.
