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.

A Practical Guide to the Employment Act 1955 (2nd Edition)
RM150.00About the Book
The Employment (Amendment) Act 2022 comes into force on 1st January 2023. With effect from that date, the Minister of Human Resources amended the First Schedule and increased the scope of the Act from persons earning not more than RM 2,000 to all persons engaged under a contract of service. This was indeed a quantum leap benefiting all employees in the country. The interest of employers was safeguarded by limiting entitlement to payments for overtime work on rest days and public holidays and termination benefits to those earning up to RM 4,000. One of the greatest benefits that all employees irrespective of salary will enjoy is access to the Labour Court. The entire Act and related Regulations have been presented with practical examples and relevant case law. Questions have also been provided to encourage the reader to apply the law to practical problems that usually arise in the course of the HR practitioner’s work. A brief explanation of the salient provisions of the Minimum Retirement Age Act 2012 has also been included in Chapter 11. An additional feature of this edition is the inclusion of more than 60 FAQs with answers.
