NSW Government shields staff from IR laws

The NSW Government has launched a defense against the Howard Government's workplace laws, bringing almost 200,000 employees back into its own workforce.

The move prevents the workers, employed by about 50 state-owned companies, such as energy utilities and area health services, being swallowed into the draconian national workplace system the Howard Government has devised using its power to regulate corporations.
