Industrial law, or the law of employment, is the body of law that regulates the relationship between employers and employees, employers and trade unions, and trade unions and employees. The Industrial Law course is a general introduction to industrial law, having the primary objective of introducing students to the system of conciliation and arbitration and collective bargaining which operates in Australia, and the common law contract of employment. A secondary objective of the course is to introduce students to the law (both common law and statute) governing industrial organisations, in particular to trade unions and industrial action. These objectives will be attained by an analysis of decisions of the relevant courts and tribunals, and statutory provisions. Students will also be expected to consult the academic literature referred to in the course outline. ASSESSMENT To be eligible to sit for the Board’s examinations, all students must complete the LEC teaching and learning program, the first step of which is to ensure that you have registered online with the LEC in each subject for which you have enrolled with the Board. This gives you access to the full range of learning resources offered by the LEC. Then, students must achieve a satisfactory result in a compulsory assignment of at least 1500 words or as prescribed. |
