Download or read book The Australian Charter of Employment Rights written by Mordy Bromberg and published by Hardie Grant Publishing. This book was released on 2007-09-01 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt:

The Australian Charter of Employment Rights is a blueprint for the future of industrial relations in Australia.

The Charter is a back-to-basics attempt to define the rights of workers and employers. It is a simply expressed contemporary document that draws upon international as well as uniquely Australian rights and values to create a set of rights and obligations which all workplaces are encouraged to adopt and observe. The Charter enables a critique of current labour laws and any proposals for change.

The Australian Charter of Employment Rights is the collaborative effort of seventeen of Australia’s leading IR practitioners, lawyers and economists, edited by Mordy Bromberg and Mark Irving. It is the initiative of the Australian Institute of Employment Rights, an independent tripartite body representing workers, employers and the public interest.

“The Charter of Australian Employment Rights leads the way for industrial relations in Australia – a way towards greater harmony and greater prosperity. It is a worthy objective, which can be achieved by employers and workers adopting a template for workplace fairness.”

Bob Hawke

Especially in Germany the Australian approach is often unknown and consequently neglected. This essay does not give a political statement in favour or disfavour of minimum wages in Australia, but the author focuses on the legal underpinnings of the Australian minimum wage system.

Book excerpt: The world of work is rapidly changing. Now, more than ever, there is a need for a principles-based approach to providing fair and decent workplaces.Eight years after drawing up the Australian Charter of Employment Rights and advocating for a rights-based approach to creating fair workplaces, the Australian Institute of Employment Rights once again brings together reflections on Australia's workplace relations system.Written by some of Australia's preeminent industrial relations academics and practitioners, this publication considers the current state of Australia's industrial relations system as measured against the AIER's Australian Charter of Employment Rights, first published in 2007, and with reference to the AIER's Australian Standard of Employment Rights, published in 2009.Preceded by an exploration of the relationship between employment rights and human rights, ten chapters focus respectively on each of the principles of the Charter and their ongoing relevance and relationship to contemporary Australian workplace relations issues.'Never more than now has there been a need for a framework promoting productive interaction about policy, compromise and effective implementation. To be effective, such a framework needs to bring together and promote dialogue between civil society institutions, unions and the diverse representatives of employer, community and human rights interests. The contributors to this book provide further steps toward engaging with the framework established by the Charter and Standard.' - The Hon Paul Munro AM

Download or read book Australia s Engagement with Economic and Social Rights written by Russell Solomon and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-04-01 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a contemporary socio-legal study of Australia’s protection of economic and social rights. Despite Australia’s hortatory language of compliance with international rights standards, its translation of these standards into domestic law and policy has been found wanting. In considering Australia’s compliance across the policy areas of health, housing, labour and social security, it is argued that Australia’s failings can be understood in terms of its institutional framework. This framework provides incomplete legal protection for rights and leaves that protection almost exclusively in the realm of politics and policymaking, an arena still dominated by neoliberalism and a political culture averse to the protection and promotion of economic and social rights.
