Introduction to Employment Relations by R Loudon,R McPhail,A Wilkinson Pdf
The second edition of Introduction to Employment Relations takes a broad-based approach to the subject of workplace relations in Australia. Employment relations encompasses all aspects of people at work whereas, historically, industrial relations (IR) and human resource management (HRM) have focused on distinct aspects. The focus of IR is on collective approaches to employment, while for HRM, the emphasis is on more individual approaches. In keeping with its broad-based approach, the book covers the organisation of work, unions and employer associations, awards and agreements, staffing and development, managing performance and rewards, in addition to identifying and explaining the major changes in employment relations in recent years. This book is suitable for introductory courses at undergraduate and postgraduate levels.
Australian Industrial Relations Systems by Kenneth Frederick Walker Pdf
Kenneth Walker's 1956 publication, Industrial Relations in Australia, was acclaimed as the first full-scale analysis of the factors shaping Australian industrial relations. Significant developments during the ensuing years, however, necessitated a thorough reevaluation of the field. In his revised book Walker examines these extensive developments, reorganizes his approach, incorporates much additional material, and, in general, provides a more comprehensive view of Australian industrial relations. The organizing theme of this new work is John T. Dunlop's concept of the industrial relations system, which the author applies to the Australian situation, distinguishing among national, state, industry, and plant systems.
The new edition of this classic textbook contains the most up to date analysis of the processes and practices of industrial relations in Australia. The result is a stronger text than ever before.
The Transformation of Australian Industrial Relations by Mark Wooden,Robert William Drago,Anne Hawke Pdf
The past decade has seen the decline in importance of the tribunal-based systems of conciliation and arbitration that have shaped relationships between labour and management in this country since the turn of the century.The remaining systems of industrial awards struggle to retain a place on centre stage and there has been a clear shift in the level at which wages and employment conditions are determined. An almost exclusive focus on industry and economy-wide considerations has given way to a hybrid system which places greater emphasis on the enterprise and the workplace.This book analyses these changes and provides an understanding of their impact on Australian workplaces. describes the changing nature of Australian industrial relations and the forces behind that change provides an understanding of the nature of the 'new' agreements, both collective and individual, that are being negotiated analyses how trade unions have reacted to, and have been affected by, changes in bargaining structures discusses the possible implications of changing industrial relations arrangements for the nature of work and for individuals performing that work examines whether changes in bargaining structures have had any impact on business performance, especially through enhanced worker productivity; and considers likely future trends in industrial relations arrangements. This book ... "makes an important contribution to the study of Australian industrial relations arrangements and can be expected to have a significant impact on both policy and research in the years ahead".
New Employment Actors by Grant Michelson,Suzanne Jamieson,John Burgess Pdf
This volume contains a selection of papers which go back to a conference on new employment actors, held at the University of Sydney in November 2006. The book contends that employment relations must be broadened to examine the new actors and processes and the role these play in the regulation and experience of work. It demonstrates this in the context of recent developments in Australia. In addition, the contributions evaluate the extent to which new employment actors either reinforce or replace the activities of the more established trade union, management, and state-based actors. It is argued that an inclusion of these new actors and processes is a more comprehensive way of understanding and explaining industrial society in the 21st century.
