Overview

Balancing Business and Labour: Global Dispute Resolution and Employee Protections in Australia tackles the complex intersection between corporate interests and workers' rights in a globalised economy. Through two insightful articles, this book explores key legal challenges impacting labour rights and employee protections. The first article, Evaluating the Impact of Investor-State Dispute Settlement for Workers' Rights, examines how ISDS clauses in trade agreements can allow corporations to challenge domestic labour protections, often prioritising corporate interests over workers' rights.The second article, The Protection of Australian Employee Entitlements Following Corporate Collapses: Grounds for Special Attention, focuses on Australia, analysing the country's legal framework for protecting employees when companies collapse. It highlights the need for stronger protections to secure workers' entitlements in cases of corporate insolvency. This book serves as a crucial resource for policymakers, scholars, and anyone interested in understanding and safeguarding the delicate balance between labour rights and corporate influence in today's interconnected world.
