Tim Gurner: Australian tycoon calls for layoffs to fix worker attitudes
By Tiffanie Turnbull and Natalie Shermanin Sydney and New York
One of Australia's richest men has sparked a global backlash after saying unemployment should double to remind arrogant workers of their place.
" We need to see pain in the economy, " gym-owner-turned-real-estate-mogul Tim Gurner said.
He has previously suggested Young People cannot afford homes because they spend too much on Avocado Toast .
Video of his comments has gone viral, attracting over 23 million views and strong criticism online.
Speaking during a property summit This Week , the 41-year-old said the Covid-19 pandemic had changed employees' attitudes and work ethics for the worse - singling out builders as an example.
He claimed that shift is impacting productivity in the sector, which - combined with tougher regulations - is fuelling Australia's housing shortage.
He proposed the country's current unemployment rate of 3. 7% should rise by 40-50% to reduce " arrogance in The Employment market". That would see More Than 200,000 people lose their jobs.
" There's been a systematic change where employees feel The Employer is extremely lucky to have them, " Mr Gurner said.
" We need to remind people they work for The Employer , not The Other way around. "
His remarks come at a time when many companies are tussling with staff over issues such as remote work and pay.
Shifting attitudes toward employment are also a matter of widespread discussion on Social Media , giving rise to hashtags Like " quiet quitting" a term meant to capture the decision to stop going above and beyond for bosses; and " lazy-girl jobs" which refers to well paying, flexible positions that offer greater work-life balance.
Mr Gurner's comments, which were shared by the Australian Financial Review (AFR) which hosted The Summit , have drawn criticism on Social Media platforms Like X (formerly Twitter), TikTok and LinkedIn.
They have also been condemned by Australian MPs from across the political divide. Labor MP Jerome Laxale said they were " comments you'd associate with a cartoon supervillain" while Liberal MP Keith Wolahan said they " could not be more out of touch".
" The Loss of a job is not A Number . It sees people on The Streets and dependent upon food banks, " Mr Wolahan told the AFR.
US lawmaker Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez also criticised the property mogul.
" Reminder that major CEOs have skyrocketed their own pay so much that the ratio of CEO-to-worker pay is now at some of the highest levels ever recorded, " she wrote on X.
But Others - Like Minerals Council of Australia chairman Andrew Michelmore - have defended him.
" Employees have got used to earning the same amount of money but not putting in the same hours, " Mr Michelmore told the AFR.
Gurner is The Ceo and founder of Gurner Group and has an estimated worth of A$929 million (£479m; $598m).
He has previously spoken about how loans from his grandfather and former boss helped him get his start as a business owner.
