Safety Net The Future of Welfare in Australia

In Safety Net, Federal MP and economist Daniel Mulino provides a deep dive into the architecture of Australia’s social security system. Moving beyond partisan rhetoric, Mulino explores how the welfare state can be redesigned to provide security in an era of rapid technological change, precarious work, and an aging population.

Drawing on extensive research and his own experience in policy development, the author argues for a system that not only catches people when they fall but empowers them to thrive. This book is a crucial contribution to the national conversation on inequality, social mobility, and the role of government in fostering a fair society.
