Abstract

The year 2021 has been momentous for women at work in Australia. Two key themes loom large: first, the highly gendered impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on paid and unpaid work, and second, the ongoing crisis of persistent gender-based disrespect and violence in Australian workplaces. Both have prompted escalating demands for change to provide women with better jobs, improve the balance between work and care, and ensure more respect at work. This article examines these issues, briefly analyses the 2021–22 Federal Budget and parental leave policy in Australia a decade after a national scheme commenced, and foreshadows several issues on women and work to watch in 2022.

2021年澳大利亚妇女、工作和劳资关系

2021年对澳大利亚的职场女性来说意义重大。两个关键主题迫在眉睫:首先，2019冠状病毒病大流行对有偿和无偿工作的高度性别化影响;其次，澳大利亚工作场所持续存在的基于性别的不尊重和暴力危机。这两件事都促使人们不断要求变革，为女性提供更好的工作，改善工作与护理之间的平衡，并确保在工作中得到更多尊重。本文探讨了这些问题，简要分析了2021-22年联邦预算和澳大利亚在国家计划启动十年后的育婴假政策，并预示了2022年妇女和工作方面的几个问题。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Industrial Relations takes a broad interdisciplinary approach to the subject of the world of work. It welcomes contributions which examine the way individuals, groups, organisations and institutions shape the employment relationship. The Journal takes the view that comprehensive understanding of industrial relations must take into account economic, political and social influences on the power of capital and labour, and the interactions between employers, workers, their collective organisations and the state.
