Exclusive: Porter weighs legislation to address casual 'double-dipping', extra sick leave auspol | Dana_Adele

Mondelez, which is also appealing the Federal Court decision, has argued it "creates inequality between employees in the same workplace who complete the same work" on different rosters.

Employers of shift workers are concerned the Federal Court decision could expose them to wage bills up to $2 billion higher a year, but the union argues workers should be paid for every hour they would have worked while sick while remaining entitled to the standard 10 days of sick leave. Mr Porter said while it would not be "practical or useful to legislate ahead of a decision", law reform would be considered if the decision did not "clear up the casuals issue".
