Sydney University senior lecturer and prominent police academic researcher Giuseppe Carabetta from the Sydney University Faculty of Economics and Business has been awarded a citation in the 2008 Australian Learning and Teaching Council awards. Carabetta has done considerable work with the Police Federation of Australia (PFA) writing and researching various issues particularly in relation to police employment matters.
His paper in the Melbourne University Law Review, “Employment Status of Police In Australia”, has been regularly cited as an authoritive piece on police employment. Carabetta also worked closely with the PFA when it made submissions to the previous Federal Government about its concerns over WorkChoices and its potential impact on police. The PFA is planning to partner with Carabetta in an application for an Australian Research Council Linkage Grant for a project to examine Employment and the Law in Australian Policing: Options for a new Employment Law Model for Police .
The PFA wishes to congratulate Mr Carabetta for this honour and looks forward to continuing to work with him on behalf of Australia’s police.
