Since the publication of the last edition there has been a flood of new legislation enhancing the rights of employees and imposing more duties and responsibilities on employers.

This fourth edition has been comprehensively updated and provides practical guidance on new legislation and on selected and pertinent decisions by the tribunals and courts. This includes the very latest information on:

• parental leave;
• unfair dismissal;
• disciplinary and grievance procedures;
• holidays and holiday pay;
• working time (young persons);
• the national minimum wage;
• adoption leave and pay;
• paternity leave and pay;
• new maternity rights;
• flexible working;
• fixed-term employees;
• part-time workers;
• the Tax Credits Act 2002;
• the Employment Act 2002.

Complete with useful addresses and advice about alternative sources of information (such as codes of practice and DTI guidance notes), this reference book is an essential desktop companion for UK managers and industrial relations law students.

Review

This book looks at the vast area of employment law. Legislation keeps changing. This very normal for most industrilized countries. Get on here to remember the right response, the right approach. What does the law generally state?

A very well printed and designed text makes it easy to read and remember what one has read.

This book is a hard cover with valuable information. A complete reference for managers at any time of leadership.
