Fruit and vegetable pickers will no longer be legally allowed to be paid below award wages if a claim by the Australian Workers Union to put a floor under piecework rates is approved.
Many workers in the horticulture industry are paid by the amount of fruit or vegetables they pick, which can result in some legally earning less than the national minimum wage if they pick slowly or rates are set too low.
