Bulk grain handling facilities at the Port of Fremantle and the development of a work culture 1933 - 1977 / Geoff Harcourt [thesis]

DESCRIPTION

AuthorHarcourt, GeoffDescriptionThis study looks in some detail at the development of CBH's North Fremantle grain terminal and identifies the growth of a separate work culture more in tune with the waterside workers at the port of Fremantle. It is argued that grain handlers, like waterside workers, had a degree of self-determination despite the seasonal nature of their employment. The study also argues that, while the North Fremantle work culture became well established, it was not constant and underwent change as the industry changedImprint[Perth, W.A. : Murdoch University], 1991Collationiii, 77 p. ; 30 cm.LanguageEnglishNotesThesis (Honours) - Murdoch University, 1991.
