Hopefully, companies will have to hire more online moderators as a result of the legislation coming into force. We know all about how difficult it is to work in the moderating environment. Does Ms Quill think that the Department or we, as legislators, can look at ways to ensure the safety of workers in that field, given that, hopefully, the knock-on effect of the Bill will be that more moderators will be hired by big companies?
