    From Awards to Work Choices in Retail and Hospitality Collective Agreements

    ‘Lowering the standards’: From Awards to Work Choices in Retail and Hospitality Collective Agreements Synthesis Report September 2007 Justine Evesson, John Buchanan, Larissa Bamberry, Betty Frino and Damian Oliver Prepared for the Queensland, New South Wales and Victorian Governments Acknowledgements This project has been an intense and large scale undertaking to which many people have contributed. The project was only possible because of funding provided by the Governments of Queensland, NSW and Victoria. The staff responsible for overseeing the work were Simon Blackwood and Andrew Dungan from the Queensland Department of Employment and Industrial Relations, Sharon Winocur and Matthew Waite of Industrial Relations Victoria and Lolita Kepars and John Stockler from the NSW Office of Industrial Relations. These staff, while completely supportive of the project, at no stage attempted to direct the conduct or findings of the research. What was particularly generous was their understanding as the project unfolded. An analysis of industrial agreements of this depth and complexity has not, to our knowledge, been attempted before. We inevitably experienced major problems, primarily associated with devising specialised computer software, to undertake this analysis. These problems were always accepted as real and we were given the space to overcome them and thereby generate new understandings. This feature of the project has been integral to its success. The Workplace Authority was helpful in providing the agreements analysed here. While we would have preferred to have got them in machine readable form, we accept that the authority is flat our processing the agreements in their current form. The fact they made the information that was potentially available freely available to us in time to do this study is greatly appreciated.
