This subject introduces students to the importance of employee relations in the workplace
and how they contribute to integrate employers and employees' interests in a way that
promotes and balances efficiency, equity and fairness. It concerns the relationship
between management and employees and assists students in realising and understanding
the importance of institutions and processes of employee relations, including laws,
and social and political processes. Through this, students will gain knowledge and
understanding of the organisation and behaviour of people at work, in particular the
role of key players and institutional parties such as government, employer associations
and unions upon management and employees. In addition, students will develop awareness
of the implications of change in the workforce, the nature of the workforce, collective
and individual bargaining and assess how these affect management and employees.

- explain the role, function and influence of key players in employment relations;
