AB  - Aims to subject to empirical scrutiny the claim that peripheral
work is characterized by a range of undesirable characteristics. The
analysis of data from the Australian Workplace Industrial Relations
Survey (AWIRS) clearly shows that there is a link between peripheral
forms of employment and undesirable working conditions in Australian
workplaces. Further, the negative features of peripheral employment
apply regardless of workplace size, sector or industry. In conjunction
with the evidence of the growth of a peripheral workforce and the marked
over‐representation of women in such jobs, supports the argument that
peripheral work contributes to inequality in Australian workplaces.
