THIS IS ASSIGNMENT QUESTION:

In your research essay, you should show that you can analyse your selected topic, and make your own argument supported by evidence. You may even choose to evaluate existing arguments from other theorists in the field.

A good research essay will demonstrate critical analysis of the topic and show that you are familiar with arguments both in favour of and against a particular viewpoint.

You will be marked based upon the depth of your analysis and research, the quality of your argument (i.e your effective use of evidence to support your theories) and the originality of your work.

Question 1

Professor Joellen Riley said the following in relation to modern employment contract law:

Despite the adoption of the notion of ‘contract’ – a liberal conception of a freely entered bargain between autonomous actors – an expectation of subservience is still embedded in legal understandings of … [employment] relationships. … The status based ‘master servant’ relationship has had a profound influence on modern employment contract law.  It explains the persistence of the “control” test … and many of the implied duties in the employment relationship, notably the employee’s duties of obedience and loyalty to the employer.

Critically analyse this statement.  To what extent (if at all) does the law regarding the contract of employment entrench the subordinate status of employees?

Question 2

As part of its submission to the 2015 Productivity Commission Inquiry into the Workplace Relations Framework, the ACTU considered the two High Court of Australia decisions in Board of Bendigo Regional Institute of Technology and Further Education v Barclay (‘Barclay’)  and Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union v BHP Coal Pty Ltd (‘BHP’).  The ACTU, following Barclay and BHP, described the law in the following terms:

[T]he current state of the law … is unsatisfactory and uncertain and appears to allow for the essential purpose of the general protections provisions to be undermined by artificial and semantic descriptions of the reasons for employer conduct that belie objective reality.

Evaluate these criticisms. In your answer, you should discuss Barclay and BHP and cases decided since, together with jurisprudence interpreting the predecessors to part 3-1 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth).

Question 3

In its submission to the Productivity Commission’s review of the workplace relations framework, the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry said the following in relation to the current system of enterprise bargaining:

Collective bargaining has traditionally served to address a perceived power imbalance between employers and employees when negotiating wages and terms and conditions of employment. However imbalances in the FW Act bargaining framework give unions the upper hand in bargaining negotiations.

Do you agree with the ACCI? In answering this question, analyse the law in relation to the making and negotiation of single-enterprise agreements. Note: You can confine your analysis to particular issues, but if you do this you must also justify the choices you make.

Question 4

Critically analyse an employer’s capacity to discipline or dismiss an employee in relation to conduct occurring outside of working hours. Have an employer’s powers in such situations intruded impermissibly into the private lives of employees? In your answer confine your discussion to the obligations existing at common law, and the manner in which these obligations have been interpreted by courts and tribunals in related contexts such as unfair dismissal proceedings.
