I have a few friends in America, and they tell me all the time they get treated like crap by their employers. Time off is very hard, even when sick. These things in the video are pretty much all illegal in Australia. Not because we have "benefits" but because we have RIGHTS. We are country with strong unions for most industries. 👍 Ian my friend, it's not good enough to say "not every case is like that, some places are pretty good". ALL places/workers should have the bare basic employee rights met, it's should be mandatory under the law as it is in most other countries.

@joandsarah77 exactly. That's the point. We have rights here thanks to laws and unions. Over there they call these things "benefits"...if you're one of the lucky ones to have decent employer. I've had to contact the union at an old job on a couple of occasions. And they always came through for me.
