LABOUR LAW ( AN INTRODUCTION ) SECOND EDITION ( IN FAIR CONDITION )
RM90.00
The four-and-a-half years since the publication of the first edition of this book have witnessed momentous changes in the field of labour law and labour relations in Australia. These changes have necessitated a complete rewrite of almost the entire book.
So Breen Creighton and Andrew Stewart start the second edition of their enormously successful book. Amongst these major changes are :
- the major alterations to the federal industrial relations system introduced by the Industrial Relations Reform Act 1993, including new laws on enterprise bargaining, unfair dismissal and the right to strike;
- substantial reforms in each of the State systems, particularly Victoria;
- the emerging role of international standards and obligations, to which a new chapter is devoted; and
- the growth and impact of ”marginal” forms of employment, such as casual and contract labour.
