Details

If you are a Human Resources professional or an Industrial Relation practitioner, it is vital to have a relevant understanding of the Workplace Relations Act 1996 (Cth). Building on the success of the market leading first edition, the second edition not only encompasses important developments that have arisen in case law but also highlights legislative amendments.

This book avoids legal jargon, providing the reader with a current, authoritative resource that summarises the effects of the provisions in the Workplace Relations Act 1996 (Cth) and lessons taught from case law. In particular, the publication focuses on the main features of the legislation: enterprise bargaining and unfair dismissals. It also provides succinct explanations of the employment awards, the enforcement of these awards and agreements, and independent contractors.
