I'd love to hear of any employee-employer negotiation that started from a position of no redundancy provision, no unjustified dismissal that ended up with those in the contract.

I guess if you're in the $180k+ range the the employee has some power as they are hard to find. This law is intended to shift power back to the employer.

Oh absolutely that's the intent - Act are all about employers doing whatever they want, whenever despite the clear power differential. My point is more that $180k isn't actually that high level anymore, its pretty close to middle management in a lot of white collar companies.

That also illustrates how there's bigger gaps between the bottom and middle, as well as an even larger gap from the middle to the top.
