Labor has called on the federal government to reveal its plan of assistance for some 2500 Toyota workers who will be jobless when the car maker ceases manufacturing in Australia.
More than a week after Toyota announced it would stop building cars by the end of 2017, Opposition Leader Bill Shorten said workers had been forgotten by the government.
"Despite the promise of a transitional package from the government, nothing has been forthcoming," Mr Shorten said.
Some supply-chain component manufacturers have already started laying off workers, the Labor leader added.
"These workers and their families are in limbo - they need certainty and they're not getting it from this government," Mr Shorten said.
He called on Prime Minister Tony Abbott to visit Toyota workers and explain what assistance they can expect to receive.
Toyota workers impacted by the company's announcement will benefit from an expanded $60 million assistance package already established for Holden workers, Mr Abbott said in the days following the company's announcement.
