Australia’s retail industry has developed into the country’s key economic forces. The transforming resource input of the industry has 50% of the adult population who are currently working or has worked at some time in their life in retailing. The country has more than 77,000 retailers who are operating more than 20,000 retail outlets and producing more than $200 billion in annual sales. Being the largest employer in the country, it has challenges not only from the work force and sustainability dimensions but also the federal and territory labour legislations.
