Review
The fifth edition of Australia's IR bible, Labour Law, by Professors Breen Creighton and Andrew Stewart, is now available. The 1,000-page book, published by Federation Press, has been substantially restructured and updated to deal with the abolition of Work Choices and the introduction of federal Labor's Fair Work laws, as well as the other significant changes to labour regulation in Australia over recent years. It includes a detailed analysis of the NES, modern awards, the new enterprise bargaining regime, general protections against discriminatory or wrongful treatment at work, and the revamped unfair dismissal system.
Workplace Express, October 2010
This edition makes significant modifications to the 2000 edition to take fuller account of of the issues arising from the changing industrial relations environment and the growing importance of enterprise bargaining and AWAs. ..[T]he book also looks ahead to the likely changes arising from the foreshadowed workplace reforms.
The authors are unduly modest in their claims. [Provide an overview and general background, a concise but sophisticated account of the major legal principles, commentary and references] they certainly do and more, with great clarity and in language intelligible to the lay person. The arrangement of the subject matter in each chapter adds to the ease of its comprehension, while the treatment of the historical and contemporary context gives life to the law. The authors do not impose their values on the reader on many controversial issues but leave the reader with ample material to form their own judgment one way or another. This edition more than its predecessor will be an invaluable source as a text or reference not only to law students but also to practitioners and those studying industrial relations who lack a legal background. Welcome to the Fourth EditionLabour & Industry, Vol 16(3), April-May 2006
This is a unique and comprehensive review of industrial relations in Australia to date. The chapters with practical application are welcome as is the consideration given to other topical issues such as securioty of employee entitlements. It is well worth updating your personal or institutional library to include the fourth edition of Labour Law.
Journal of Industrial Relations, Vol 47(4), December 2005
The latest edition of Labour Law provides a thorough overview of Australia's industrial system as well as examining a number of contemporary issues relating to the world of work. This edition provides a useful overview of recent developments relating to protection of employee entitlements in the case of corporate insolvency, the type of matters that can now be included in enterprise bargaining agreements, a more detailed discussion of the intricacies associated with the bargaining process itself as well as emerging statutory remedies for unfair employment practices.
Labour Law remains an enormously valuable tool that provides a clear analysis of Australia's industrial system as well as providing information on the emerging trends and challenges in regulating the modern day employment relationship.Worksite, May 2005
