Flexicurity and Australia roundtable report
'Flexicurity' can be understood as a policy framework to balance flexibility for employers on the one hand with improved unemployment benefits, training and assistance in regaining employment for workers on the other.
At this roundtable, participants from the Business Council of Australia, the Australian Council of Trade Unions, the federal government, universities and the community sector discussed the relevance of flexicurity – a framework well developed in Europe – to the Australian context.
