The goal of this book is to explain the way in which employment relationships are legally regulated in Australia. It achieves this by providing a useful overview of Australian employment law, designed to be accessible to those not already expert in the field. This fifth edition of Professor Stewart's work has also been comprehensively updated including to explain the various changes made by the Fair Work Amendment Act 2013, part of the Abbott government's reform agenda, and to address new cases decided since the previous edition.
