This subject introduces the theories, issues and practices involved in the management of employment relations within an increasingly competitive global market. As well as gaining a broad understanding of the context and nature of different systems of international employment relations, students are encouraged to explore the cross-national similarities and differences between Australia and its geographical neighbours and trading partners through the completion of case studies and the research of current literature on the topic. The subject exposes students to the human resources policies and practices of multinational corporations, and explores how they are utilised for competitive advantage.
