Confidence in Fair Work dropping: Survey by Business

The resources sector says workplace relations have become substantially more difficult under Labor's Fair Work Act, with unions having an increased influence, according to a recent survey of employers.

"It is clear from our latest survey findings increased union activity both in negotiations, as well as in the workplace itself, are having a major impact on levels of confidence in workplace relations arrangements under the Fair Work Act."

Do you think the new Fair Work Act has made workplace relations environments more or less acceptable in the last few months? Are there any other areas where the Fair Work Act has had an impact for either good or bad?
