WORKPLACE REFORM IN THE HEALTHCARE INDUSTRY: THE AUSTRALIAN EXPERIENCE; ED. BY PAULINE STANTON

the long version

"This book focuses on the relationship between health sector and industrial relations reforms and their impact on employment relations in Australia since 1990. The book adds to the international literature on New Public Management with a distinctively Australian focus and synthesises the impact of health sector and industrial relations reform on health care management and work practices. It illustrates that New Public Management practices are implemented creatively at both macro and micro levels. In doing so, it provides context to the changing work practices in the health care sector."--BOOK JACKET.
