What is the scope and scale of corporatisation and privatisation in
Australia in the past two decades and what are their implications
for management, labour and industrial relations? This book
documents the extensive scale of this process of state
restructuring and the increasing variation in the arrangements for
providing public goods and services, often accompanied by
uncertainty. It shows many sectors of the community to be
increasingly distrustful of their impact and consequences, and the
way in which policy makers find themselves caught between promoting
the reforms, predominantly for economic reasons, and answering to
this suspicious community. It shows that it is those who actually
provide public services who feel the changes most acutely, as they
face questions about ownership, find their arrangements for work
patterns and organization recast, and suffer increasing insecurity
about work and employment futures. The book grapples with these
issues through a series of case studies on Qantas, Telstra, the
electricity industries in NSW and Victoria, Job Network, Local
government and the Gas & Fuel Corporation of Victoria. These
seven case studies, three of privatisations by the Australian
Federal Government, and four of change initiated by State
Governments, provide a detailed analysis of the resulting changes
in employment and industrial relations.
