  • Agency Workers As Threatening Moles Undermining Unionism Or Welcome Agents of Change in Irish and Norwegian Unions?
    Creative destructor / destructive creator: agency workers as threatening moles undermining unionism or welcome agents of change in Irish and Norwegian unions? Ann Cecilie Bergene, Arbeidsforskningsinstituttet/Work Research Institute, Oslo Draft, please do not cite Introduction According to Müller-Jentsch (ref. Hyman 1992) unions faced three crises during the 1980s, one of interest aggregation, one of employee loyalty and one of representativeness. Although it can be argued that labour, as a political discourse as well as a movement, has been pushed on the defensive after the crisis of Fordism, unions are still important actors in the regulation of the labour markets. Unions may thus be regarded as a formative institutional presence, along with employers, their associations, and governments. The Fordist model of socio-economic development rested on the articulation of productivity and wage increases, which meant that national-level negotiations between unions, employers’ associations and government were a key regulatory mechanism. As such a regulatory mechanism, unions were also pivotal in the generalisation of the so-called standard employment relationship (SER), and also the construction of welfare states. This legacy may act both as token of relevance and strength on the one hand, and, as we shall see in this paper, as an exclusionary practice on the other. Union policies and strategies are not formulated in a vacuum, rather they must be analysed in relation to the socio-political context, and maybe most importantly in relation to the policies and strategies of the employers’ associations and the state. This is particularly important when drawing international comparisons, as this paper will do through analysing union strategies toward temporary agency work in Norway and Ireland.

  • 2021 ALP National Platform
    Welcome to Labor’s 2021 National Platform In March 2021, delegates to the Australian Labor Party’s Special Platform Conference gathered to debate and adopt our National Platform. Our online Special Platform Conference was an event like nothing Labor – or any other Australian political party – had attempted before. Over two days, delegates, branch members and observers joined from home, from work and from community spaces in every corner of the country. The coronavirus pandemic may have prevented our movement from coming together as we traditionally have, but it did not prevent Labor from updating and renewing our National Platform. As Anthony Albanese notes in the foreword to the National Platform, Labor’s historic task is to advance an agenda of fairness that creates a better society, a better nation and a better world. The 2021 National Platform sets out the contemporary policy agenda that an Albanese Labor Government will implement to progress that great task. It is the product of countless hours of debate, discussion, and deliberation by Labor members in the 18 months leading up to the Special Platform Conference. I want to particularly acknowledge the work of the National Policy Forum, particularly the Forum’s office bearers led by our National President, Wayne Swan; Senators Jenny McAllister and Deborah O’Neill; and our NPF Secretary, Misha Zelinsky. I commend the 2021 National Platform to the Party and the people of Australia. Paul Erickson ALP National Secretary Conference resolution relating to the ALP National Platform That

  • The ALP National Platform 2018
    Welcome to Labor’s National Platform I am proud to introduce Labor’s 48th ALP National Platform. This National Platform outlines Labor’s key policy priorities as we head into an election year. These policies were developed and articulated through the work of our Shadow Ministry and the National Policy Forum (NPF). I congratulate our NPF office bearers – particularly, Senator Deborah O’Neill and Senator Jennifer McAllister – and all of the members of the NPF elected from the branch membership, our affiliated unions and the FPLP. This Platform is about showcasing Labor’s preparedness for government and restoring Australians faith in the political process. Bill Shorten and the Labor team are more than ready, they are a rare stable force in today’s political climate. As the Leader said in his opening speech to National Conference: “…these gatherings witness a real passion, genuine debate and the decisions that we make here, define our party, they reflect our values.” Bill and the Labor team are ready to take on the challenges Australia faces, and are ready to implement a National Platform. I would like to acknowledge and thank every rank and file member and union who contributed to the development of this platform, and commend it to the Party and to all Australians.
