The Government has asked for submissions to remove the red tape involved with government regulations.

It is important to understand that the paperwork involved with the regulations and not the regulations are the problem.

The paperwork involved with complying with employment regulations are not going to be corrected by some trimming around the edges.

The employer related paperwork can be removed completely without affecting the regulations by one simple step.

The majority of workers have their pay paid directly into a bank account.

Consider a situation where a grossed up hourly rate is paid into a computer bank, linked to or operated by Centrelink.

The taxation, super, workcover, etc. etc. is calculated and credited to the right account, any Centrelink benefit is adjusted with the balance credited to the employees bank account. 
The employee can work for one employer for all his life, or several employers in one day and all employee related costs and benefits will be allotted to the right account.

An employer does not even need the employees name for this system to operate and has no further obligation. 
All the associated reconciliation processes are no longer required it will replace the present cumbersome system which discourages a person to employ or be employed.

Any costs involved in the implementation of this system will be overshadowed by an increased taxation revenue and a decrease in Centrelink benifits.

I have been considering this plan for many years and cannot find a problem with it.

If you find a problem with it I would appreciate your comments.
