@gemcarey A brave article, thank you for sharing. Australia’s maternity (and extended health) system is both wonderful and woefully and blatantly wrong in many ways.
A 🧵 on a piece of @MonashUni research that ought to make us all weep, retch, explode with white rage & demand better.
'Between 2001-2018 middle-aged women have gone from a place of relative mental calm, to reporting the highest level of serious mental distress.'
@EconomistAnge Research into, diagnosis of, and treatment for is alarmingly built on the male-default. It is a terrifying thought as a woman who has a clear family history of heart disease.
@LiveFinancy Absolutely (I can’t yet speak from experience with aged care). Making childcare accessible to families AND making it an attractive sector to work and develop talent is critical for our futures.
I wholeheartedly believe the work that I and my husband do is valuable to the community (like just about everyone else). To do that, childcare is essential. This sector needs reform.
Today we delivered on our promise to remove a discriminatory, inequitable relic - the $450 threshold to receive super. From July, some 300,000 Australians will receive superannuation for the first time- around 200,000 of whom are women. It will make a real difference. #auspol
AIST welcomes the removal of the $450 monthly salary threshold for super contributions. 300,000 lower-paid Australians, mostly women, will now get super payments from 1 Jul. A positive step toward achieving better retirement savings for low paid workers
