Mr. David Joyce:

We believe the involvement of unions at the earliest stage possible in developing initiatives around this is key to addressing the concerns Dr. Bambrick outlined in our statement. The challenges can only be properly approached if the right stakeholders are around the table. Because of the challenges, it is key that workers and their representatives are represented in any forum that is making decisions that will fundamentally impact the world of work. As Dr. Bambrick finished our statement with, this has to be seen in a broader context. We have aims and objectives for the world of work outlined in international instruments, the sustainable development goals, etc. How will this development impact those? How do we harness it in such a way that it coalesces with them rather than working against them? It is key to have unions and other stakeholders around the table.
