    Key Note Address by Maxine McKew

    "I am delighted to support the 20th MacquarieUniversity Women, Management and Employment Relations Conference, which is the leading workplace relations conference for women in Australia.  In 2008 the conference will coincide with a fresh push to increase participation by women in the Australian workforce. The leadership shown by MacquarieUniversity on this issue has always been critical.”
