Among the numerous specific topics covered are the following: - awards, Australian workplace agreements, and certified agreements; - the role of the Australian Industrial Relations Commission and other institutions, both state and federal; - matters that may be determined by tribunals; - application of a national wages policy; - the award simplification programme; - collective agreements; - rights and duties of employees and employers; - legal controls of trade unions; - legal forms of industrial action; - the role of employers' organizations; - workers' participation in enterprises; and, - criteria for tribunal decisions.
