About the course
Work and Employment Relations examines how workplaces are governed and how employment relationships shape organisations and society. You’ll explore the rules, institutions and policies that influence employers and employees, drawing on perspectives from politics, law, sociology, economics and history. The major builds insight into contemporary workplace issues and how to analyse and challenge employment practices in a changing economy as part of an undergraduate business-focused study pathway.
Career outcome
Graduates can pursue roles connected to workplace policy and practice across public, private and not-for-profit sectors. The major supports careers in human resources and industrial/employee relations, policy and compliance, union or employer advocacy, workplace mediation and advisory roles, and broader organisational consulting. It also provides a platform for further study in related areas such as law, public policy and management, aligned to an undergraduate pathway in work and employment relations.
