Abstract: | This article examines the book, Australian Charter of Employment Rights. The book is an edited collection of work from a number
of prominent employment relations’ academics and practitioners across Australia. By drawing upon both Australian and international
employment rights the book allows for a critique of current and prospective legislation within Australia. This article highlights
key parts of the book that should be of interest to both Australian and international readers. A great deal of the book’s
content is based on international conventions concerned with equitable principles which the authors suggest should govern
the workplace, for example: a workplace free of discrimination; dignity at work; fair minimum standards and effective dispute
resolution. This author contends that the book should be considered by policymakers when drafting new Australian industrial
relations policy. It is a welcome addition to scholarship in this field. |
