The GRIA Time BombThe Federal Court’s recent GRIA decision is arguably the biggest structural hit retailers have taken in years. The ARA argues that salaried team members earning $90,000-plus must now be treated like hourly juniors, pushing retailers away from salaried arrangements altogether. A specialist Fair Work court makes these claims cheaper and faster to run. Rulings against retailers could hit the likes of JB Hi-Fi, Harvey Norman, Winning and every appliance and CE retailer running salaried store managers. The SDA and the ACTU now have the momentum, and a specialist Fair Work court hands them a cheaper enforcement pathway.
