The federal government’s Work Choices legislation has taken over much of the jurisdiction of state governments to regulate labour practices in the conventional manner. There are already indications that the states are considering more creative forms of labour regulation, including ‘soft’ or ‘light touch’ regulation, as a response to Work Choices. This article presents findings from a study of light touch labour regulation in New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria. The article also makes some preliminary observations on the use of this regulatory technique by the three states, drawing upon a normative model of ‘responsive regulation’. This preliminary assessment of light touch labour regulation suggests that there is considerable scope for improvement, as many of the approaches discussed are relatively weak informational strategies. The article identifies a number of possible regulatory improvements.
