Abstract
Dismissal of workers is directly related to their job security, human dignity and income. As such, legislation on this issue is very important. In view of Australia’s mixed economic system, labor laws are supposed to keep a balance between economic growth and labors’ rights. Using a descriptive- analytical method, this paper studies Australian law on worker dismissal and compares it to regulations of the International Labor Organization (ILO). The main question of the paper is what types of dismissal are considered unfair in Australian law and to what extent the labor regulations of this country have complied with ILO standards? In terms of compatibility with ILO standards, and based on the statistics presented by labor groups and the Fair Labor Commission, it can be concluded that Australia’s labor regulations are one of the most advanced in the world and can be a model for other legislators.
