Business Council of Australia

Authorised by W. Black, Business Council of Australia, Melbourne.

We work to ensure Australia is economically strong to support a fair, free and inclusive society for all Australians. Achieving this requires successful, well-run businesses that create meaningful jobs and inclusive work environments which reflect and are accountable to the broader Australian community. The Business Council champions the role that responsible businesses play in generating sustaina

ble economic growth and advocates for policy settings that are in the national interest. We believe the role of business is to generate returns for shareholders over the medium to long term, and that doing this requires businesses to be good corporate citizens, and for big and small business to work together across our cities and regions. This means to act in good faith, have products and services that are fit for market, represent those products fairly and balance the needs of all stakeholders and interests including employees, shareholders, customers, suppliers, the community and the environment. The Business Council will actively collaborate with other community and business groups, political leaders at all levels of government and engage directly with the community to achieve our vision and purpose.

New polling shows NSW voters are sending a clear signal on the Digital Work Systems Bill, with strong concerns about data security, workplace privacy and who should be trusted with access to sensitive systems.

Key findings from the CT Group poll of more than 1,000 NSW voters:
- 75% are worried about data breaches and personal information being exposed
- 61% believe that role should sit with government regulators
- Only 5% prefer unions to investigate workplace technology

Workers and employees expect their personal and workplace data to be protected, not opened up to broad union access.

We’re urging the NSW Government to listen to the public and amend the Bill to put clear guardrails around data access, protect privacy, and avoid unintended consequences for jobs and investment.
