  • The Harvester Minimum Wage Case and Its Importance to Australian Society After 110 Years
    The Harvester minimum wage case and its importance to Australian society after 110 years Australian Catholic Council for Employment Relations (ACCER) Extract from ACCER submission to the Annual Wage Review 2016-17 conducted by the Fair Work Commission in Sydney on 18 May 2017 ACCER was represented by Brian Lawrence, past-chairman of ACCER, and Fr. Frank Brennan SJ AO, Chief Executive Officer of Catholic Social Services Australia. 1. We would like to introduce our submissions with a reference to the historical context of the setting of minimum wage rates in Australia, in particular the fact that this year is the 110th anniversary of the Harvester case. It is an anniversary that should be marked in this annual wage review because the Fair Work Commission is the successor to the court which decided that case. For 110 years this tribunal and its direct predecessors have had to consider the fairness of minimum wage rates. This is a history worth commemorating. There is probably no tribunal in the world that can trace its involvement in this kind of work to an earlier date. 2. Three days ago in Melbourne the Fair Work Commission marked this anniversary with a shortened re-enactment of the Harvester hearings. The publicity for that event, described as Harvester revisited stated: “2017 marks the 110th anniversary of the historic Harvester case, a key decision leading to the introduction of Australia’s first minimum wage in the 1920s. In honour of this anniversary, the Fair Work Commission is presenting a mock hearing in which the Harvester case will be revisited.

  • August 2018 Newsletter
    Carlton Community History Group NEWSLETTER Issue No. 10 August 2018 Carlton’s Squares The idea of having planned squares in residential areas first became popular in England in the early nineteenth century, open green areas in the midst of what was otherwise a densely populated area of houses. The idea was also popular in early Melbourne, and when Surveyor-General Robert Hoddle first laid out the area immediately north of the town, he made provision for squares in the area that was to become known as Carlton. (See 1855 map next page). In addition to its two large parks, Carlton Gardens and Princes Park, Carlton had initially two and eventually six small urban squares. Argyle and Lincoln Squares appeared on government plans as early as 1852 and Curtain, Macarthur, Murchison and Barry Squares appeared later. Not all of them were originally set aside as areas for public recreation. Curtain Square was originally a quarry (see article next page), and Barry Square, latter known as University Square, was originally used as a site for breaking up stones for road metal. In some squares, sporting clubs were allowed to build facilities. In 1868, the Carlton Bowling Club was given permission to construct bowling greens in Argyle Square, and seven years later Victoria Bowling Club was allowed to do the same in Barry Square. In the nineteenth century most if not all of Carlton’s squares were fenced and access by the public was restricted, as was the tradition in England with squares in cities like London. All of Carlton’s squares suffered from vandalism in those early days and many were in a sad and An aerial view taken in 1927 of Lincoln Square (centre) and Argyle Square neglected (left centre) looking south.
