Working Papers
The Centre for Employment and Labour Relations Law publishes the work of Centre Members, Associates and others in the field of employment and labour relations law in a periodic working paper series. Paper topics cover diverse aspects of the broad field of labour law and labour market regulation, including the regulation of individual work relationships, discrimination in the labour market, the operation of courts and other dispute resolution institutions, the regulation of occupational health and safety, collective labour relations, comparative labour law, international labour standards, and unemployment law and policy. The working paper series also reflects the Centre's ongoing research on the constitution and regulation of labour markets, both in Australia and abroad, with papers on labour law in the Asia-Pacific region, Southern Africa and Europe.
The second working paper series - the CELRL Student Working Paper Series - publishes the work of students in subjects taught as part of the labour relations law program of the Melbourne Law Masters, and employment and labour relations law subjects in the JD and LLB programs. This series commenced in 2009.
Both working paper series are edited by Anna Chapman and Beth Gaze. Please contact them with any queries, or if you would like to submit your work for publication. A full list of titles can be viewed below. In addition, selected working papers are available in pdf format and can be downloaded by clicking on the title of the paper.
