Unfortunately, there remains a vocal minority in the Australian TCF sector who are unwilling to accept the provisions in legislation protecting outworkers, many of which have existed in law since the 1980’s. They seek to blame all the woes of the TCF sector on the ECA accreditation program and the law. However, ECA exists to ensure some of Australia’s most vulnerable workers receive their legal pay and entitlements by making sure TCF businesses simply comply with the law!
