This subject is designed to equip students with a set of analytical tools which can be used to study the behaviour on the labour markets and to analyse economic policy in the areas of employment and education. In the course of study students master economic concepts such as supply of and demand for labour, and learn how to use these concepts to critically evaluate policy proposals with respect to their impacts on wages and employment. Students also study key institutional features, historical trends and current policy issues in Australian labour markets.
