This unit examines the broad macro issues related to managing people at work. The scope of inquiry extends to the macroeconomic environment including the economic, political, social, and institutional context. The unit is approached from a stakeholder perspective, emphasising the way that management, labour and the state, along with other key stakeholders, act, both separately and together, to structure the employment relationship. Topics include the regulatory framework, bargaining structures and processes, conflict and co-operation, and the impact of change and reform directions. -- Course Website
