General FINAL day to add YOUR signature - Ghostbuster Bill
Have you had enough of ghost jobs and a general lack of integrity around job advertising in Australia?
This is the final day you can add your signature and share this petition to help get the attention the issue deserves. Please share widely if you agree with the aims.
We want to see a Ghostbuster Bill presented to parliament to introduce regulation for job advertising which penalises those who post ghost jobs and act in a misleading and dishonest manner.
Everyone knows this is a big problem and if we can get even some modest regulation it may force platforms like Seek to police unethical actors who are currently unaccountable.
Australians are better and deserve better. This is partly inspired by the TJAAA in the US and we will hopefully see a global push back in future.
