abstract: 'This article argues that the policy framework governing work and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
industrial relations in Australia and other liberal market economies is
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stuck in an outdated paradigm fixated on solving problems of labour that
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
have diminished or no longer exist, such as excessive union power and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
overt forms of industrial conflict. This policy framework is poorly
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
equipped for addressing increasingly urgent problems for labour, such as
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
growing inequality and workforce insecurity. Drawing upon neo-pluralist
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
ideas and the findings emerging from industrial relations research, the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
article presents recommendations for what a new industrial relations
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
policy framework would look like. It advocates for the adoption of a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
neo-pluralist policy paradigm focused on the creation of quality
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
employment, worker wellbeing, redistribution in bargaining and wage
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
determination, fairer labour immigration policies, stronger protections
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
against gender-based inequalities, and increased job security.'
