Workplace and Corporate Law Research Group
Working paper series
WCLRG invites the submission of papers for publication in its Working Paper Series.
Submissions on workplace relations and employment law, labour market regulation, corporate governance, corporate social responsibility, and the intersections between labour law and corporate law are welcomed.
Contributors may wish to submit “work in progress” papers to disseminate and obtain feedback on their work from a broad audience, prior to final submission of the paper for publication in a refereed journal. For example, conference and seminar papers, papers arising from research higher degree studies, and high quality undergraduate and postgraduate student essays will be considered for publication in the WCLRG Working Paper Series.
Paper Submission Guidelines
Please submit your papers by email to Anthony Forsyth.
