The federal government’s jobs and skills summit wrapped up on Friday afternoon, after two days of meetings, panels and negotiation between employers, industry and business groups, unions and politicians.
While many of the outcomes of the summit were neatly tied up before the event, the prime minister, Anthony Albanese, and the treasurer, Jim Chalmers, have trumpeted “36 concrete areas of action that will happen this year”, and a similar number of areas of further work.
