Reserved judgment in 1961 basic wage case in Australia
The Full Bench of the Commonwealth Conciliation and Arbitration Commission reserved judgment on the 1961 basic wage case. Union claims seek a 52 shilling wage rise with cost of living adjustments, while employers demand a 42 hour week and higher rates to boost production. The hearing focused on productivity, imports and exports, and Australia’s position as a paying trading nation.
