澳大利亚反对党联盟党发言人简·休姆于本周四发表演讲，批评工党的工作场所关系改革政策1。休姆宣布，若联盟党重新执政，将恢复澳大利亚建筑和建设委员会，并废除允许政府在采购中优先选择工会企业协议的法律1。这些宣布针对工党政府向工会倾斜的政策立场，包括零工经济保护和断开权等措施1。
尽管联盟党做出了这些宣示，但分析指出该党在工作场所关系改革上的总体立场仍保持谨慎1。这种保守态度反映了党内对2028年大选是否采取强硬改革立场存在的分歧1。这一谨慎姿态与20年前约翰·霍华德政府推行的工作选择政策（WorkChoices）的历史教训密切相关，该政策曾引发广泛争议，并最终助力霍华德政府下台1。对自由党而言，这段历史构成了一种持久的警示1。
Australia's opposition Coalition party outlined its stance on industrial relations reform this week through spokesperson Jane Hume, who announced plans to restore the Australian Building and Construction Commission and repeal legislation allowing government procurement preferences for unionised enterprises 1. However, the Coalition's overall approach to workplace relations remains measured, with internal divisions evident regarding the strength of reform measures the party will pursue heading into the 2028 election 1.
The Labor government has tilted significantly toward unions through policies including gig economy protections and right-of-entry provisions 1. The Coalition's hesitancy reflects the enduring political shadow of former Prime Minister John Howard's WorkChoices policy from two decades ago, which proved controversial enough to contribute to his electoral defeat and continues to serve as a cautionary precedent within the Liberal Party 1. Hume herself recently triggered a political controversy by announcing a policy requiring Canberra public servants to return to offices before the 2025 election, illustrating the sensitivity surrounding workplace-related announcements 1.
