Marketised models of social care provision in Australia are placing pressures on service providers and driving changes in work organisation and employer practices, with potential to degrade social care jobs. While international experience of marketised social care has demonstrated the vulnerability of social care workers to wage theft and other vio...
The progress in Australia towards the full industrial recognition of home care work as ‘work’ has stalled. This paper draws on International Labour Organization (ILO) Convention 189 on Decent Work for Domestic Workers 2011 to argue for a re-imaging of decent minimum standards for home care workers in Australia. While to date Australia has not ratif...
This article examines the quality of part-time employment for solicitors in private practice in Australia. Although full-time jobs based on long hours are dominant in the legal profession, part-time jobs, primarily taken by women, have attracted attention in recent years. The article seeks to answer fundamental questions about the extent and qualit...

... The final theme relates to the idea that the disability support workforce has been largely forgotten about in the COVID-19 response, and this was unsurprising given that the terms and conditions for this group have been progressively reduced over recent years (Macdonald et al., 2018).

... In particular, there are limited national data on the conditions under which the people doing the work are employed, and even less information on the nature of the work itself and the way in which care is provided. In Australia, there is little national evidence on the precarity of permanent part-time work in residential aged care, although there are indications from the community care sector (Charlesworth & Malone, 2017), and Charlesworth and Heap (2020) have argued that casualized work practices may emerge within permanent part-time work. ...

... Gender inequality in the legal and justice workforce is reflected in high prevalence of sexual harassment and workplace bullying, structural and indirect discrimination (particularly in relation to parenting and caregiving), and poor career progression for women, despite women outnumbering men as law graduates (Campbell and Charlesworth, 2011 Research also suggests the culture of the legal profession is steeped in traditional masculine stereotypes, with the model lawyer commonly associated with "masculine traits", such as assertiveness, strength, ruthlessness, resilience, confidence, and rationality (Bartlett, 2008;Campbell and Charlesworth, 2011;Bishop, 2013;Friedman, 2017). The valorisation of these qualities results in exclusion and harm such as high rates of burnout, and hostility to women and other minorities in the profession (Brady, 2019, Women's Legal Service Victoria, 2019). ...
... Doctors work with the unpredict- able timing of patients needs (Briscoe, 2007); stockbrokers service an unpredictable financial market (Blair-Loy, 2009). Solicitors' work is also project-based and variable (Campbell et al., 2008). In these professions, we also see employer-led pressures to create emergency time. ...
