Industrial relations and public sector reform: the Victorian case - 1998 - p.60-67 - Jun

Familiar institutions have disappeared, major employment areas have been restructured, and jurisdiction for much public sector industrial relations has been transferred to the Commonwealth. Despite some industrial unrest, and occasional successes, public sector unions have been unable to fend off this ideological assault on traditional patterns of public sector employment. - Reproduced
