What is employment law?
Employment law involves a complex combination of Commonwealth legislation, State legislation and the common
law. Primarily, the rights and duties of both employees and
employers come under the
Workplace Relations Act 1996. Other legislation affecting work-place practices include the Commonwealth
Sex Discrimination Act 1994, the
Racial Discrimination Act 1975, and the
Disability Discrimination Act 1992. In addition, at a Victorian level, there is the
Equal Opportunity Act 1995 and the
Occupational Health and Safety Act 1985.
