There's no better rule.” Charles Dickens, Great Expectations 1 INTRODUCTION A propensity for sharp theoretical insight combined with a detailed knowledge of industrial relations (IR) institutions and practices in different countries was a defining feature of David Marsden's work.

What 'Great Australian Resignation'?
Are Australians really quitting in droves? Photo: Shutterstock In the wake of a jump in the proportion of workers quitting jobs in the United States – dubbed the “Great Resignation” – Australia’s media has been warning of a surge in resignations here. “Here comes the Great Resignation,” reads one headline; “Millions of Aussies predicted to leave jobs” reads another.
Australia's 'great resignation' is a myth — we are changing jobs less than ever before
In the wake of a jump in the proportion of workers quitting jobs in the United States – dubbed the “Great Resignation” – Australia’s media has been warning of a surge in resignations here. “Here comes the Great Resignation,” reads one headline; “Millions of Aussies predicted to leave jobs” reads another. In fact: there is no evidence of such a phenomenon here if there was, it would be no bad thing Australia’s resignation rate has fallen to an all-time low.
To abandon vaccination targets is to abandon the mantle of leadership
The Australian government has abandoned its ambitious targets to have the adult population vaccinated by the end of October. It has, in fact, abandoned having any target. We all sometimes find ourselves in tough positions and just want to call it a day. But this decision is not what we should expect from the nation’s leaders when so much is at stake. It also goes against decades of research and evidence on the importance of goal-setting.

Bringing the Leader Back in: Why, How, and When Leadership Empowerment Behavior Shapes Coworker Conflict
On average, U.S. employees spend around 2.8 hr per week dealing with workplace conflict (CPP, 2008). This estimate equates to around US$359 billion in paid hours (based on average hourly earnings of US$17.95) and 385 million working days lost per year (CPP, 2008), representing a significant loss of productivity for organizations and the national economy.
The challenge and opportunity of an ageing workforce
The UN estimates that by 2050, one in three people living in the developed world will be over 60. In Australia, one in four people is older than 55 and over the next decade this will increase to approximately one in three. As our demography continues to shift, a key imperative will be to prolong paid workforce participation and reduce the dependence of the non-working population on the working population to a manageable level.
The rise and fall of enterprise bargaining agreements in Australia - SmartCompany
1992 was landmark year in Australian industrial relations. The Keating government pushed for enterprise bargaining in the face of reluctance from the Industrial Relations Commission and employers’ concerns at the prospect of wage inflation. The 1992-93 cabinet papers—released by the National Archives of Australia this month—mark this historic major reform, in the context of a set of broader economic reforms implemented by the Hawke/Keating Labor government.

Too strong to deliver? Malcolm Turnbull’s leadership dilemma
When Malcolm Turnbull decisively ousted Tony Abbott, it seemed Australia might have the longed-for leader who would set a clear agenda and lead Australia out of a period of policy inertia. Under Abbott, it the country appeared stuck in a policy rut, frozen by fear about the future. Neither government nor opposition could communicate to a concerned electorate how the future would unfold.
How unions are changing in a bid for relevance - and survival
It is often said that necessity is the mother of invention. As Australian unions face increasingly urgent challenges to their legitimacy and influence, it comes as no surprise they are busy rethinking how best to represent their members and reverse the decline in membership they have experienced over the last 30 years. Last year, unions and their activities faced intense scrutiny from the trade union royal commission (TURC).
