"This paper examines the emerging debate on workplace privacy regulation in Australia by reference to related developments in the United States, the United Kingdom and selected European countries. Exploring the theoretical underpinnings and practical outcomes of the different approaches, the authors argue that Australia should reject the market-friendly model exemplified by the United States approach and adopt the more comprehensive and integrated approach found in Europe."
