Job-sharing for a ‘truly representative’ democracy
Manage episode 450242496 series 2420032
Bronwen Bock and Lucy Bradlow are blazing a trail as Australia’s first job-share political candidates, seeking a Senate seat in Victoria. Parliament, they say, “should be like any other workplace” and not be limited to those who can be available 24/7 for the job, as this diminishes who can represent their communities. Our political climate, the pair argues, is poorer for it. In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show, host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with Bronwen Bock and Lucy Bradlow from the Better Together Party about their respective careers and subsequent interest in running for Parliament as job-sharing candidates, how the community has responded to their job-sharing candidacy, and how our Constitution lends weight to their fight to become Australia’s first job-sharing politicians. Bock and Bradlow also delve into their party and policy positions, why their candidacy has shifted from seeking a House of Representatives seat to a Senate seat, the broader message Australians should take from their candidacy, driving forward flexible working arrangements in our national workforce, achieving gender equality, why more men need to explore job-sharing arrangements, and how others can start to explore working arrangements that better suit their needs.
