Ms Patricia Byron:

Worker participation is not only confined to a unionised environment. I would start with workplace culture and worker participation, whether it is unionised or not. Based on the Senator's previous question, I will see if there is any evidence that there are more or fewer accidents or fatalities in unionised or non-unionised environments. That would be an evidence-based approach to identifying whether we need to respond in that way. That is not a way to address issues in an environment. It is really more about a safe and healthy working place for all, done in a collaborative way.
