People looking for a job will be continually punished despite looming changes to employment services, advocates claim.
Workplace Minister Amanda Rishworth will outline a shake-up of employment services in a speech to the National Press Club on Wednesday, in an attempt to make the system fairer.
More than one million Australians - many of them on programs such as JobSeeker - are required to see privately owned employment services providers under a $2 billion-a-year scheme aimed at getting more people into paid work.
But the system has been plagued with claims of unfair suspensions from support payments.
Ms Rishworth will use the speech to outline a three-tiered system for people who are dealing with Workforce Australia as they try to find a job.
