A debate on methods to measure and compare legally mandated employment conditions by applying a devised numerical instrument to Federal labour standards in Australia in two points in time is discussed. In order to achieve this aim, non-parametric absolute indexes are generated for 1979 and 2000 to measure the strength of labour standards and associated changes over time.
