An introduction to the concepts and principles that govern the world of work.
Labour Law is an introductory, principles textbook into the world of work in Australia. It offers a concise, thematic structure to understanding the relationships under which people perform work in a contemporary society.
Written specifically to suit a one-semester subject, this book aims to develop students’ critical understanding of labour law regulation in a social and economic context. It takes the unique approach of explaining the underlying broad themes of labour and employment law. Rather than focusing on the constantly changing technical details of labour law, it provides students with a solid conceptual framework they can take into practice and apply to future labour laws as they arise.
Key Features:
A unique focus on the concepts and themes of labour law, rather than the technical and historical detail.
Abstracts at the start of each chapter aid student learning by providing a summary of the key messages.
Case extracts and reading recommendations support further learning and development.
Discussion questions at the end of each chapter encourage critical reflection on the adequacy of labour laws, and proposals for reform.
