There's a deepening divide in Australia's workforce, with some workers enjoying generous conditions, while others like gig workers get less than the minimum requirement.
Experts say employee conditions are vastly underestimated in the worth of a job.
Casual loading gives non-permanent staff an extra 25% of their hourly rate to compensate for a lack of conditions, like paid sick leave holidays.
But now, UK research suggests it should be at least 33 per cent.
Workers in the 'gig economy' will soon enjoy new protections that may boost competition for workers and push better wages and conditions.
