%X This report outlines core areas of Labor's Fair Work Act (2009) to identify the implications of key changes, particularly for women workers.

It provides an analysis of the Act's potential to bring about a shift in the structure of gender relations, or the 'gender order', away from the existing male-breadwinner/part time female-carer model towards a more equitable dual breadwinner/dual-carer model.
