The law has changed significantly since the last edition of this title. At a time when employers are faced with a maze of legislation and potential penalties this publication provides fully up to date, comprehensive and practical guidance on personnel law and practice. It is filled with up-to- date information in over 80 subject-specific user-friendly sections, and offers: detailed and practical advice on what to do in regards to employment, rather than just why; and instant access to expert guidance in an A to Z format. Each subject covered individually and also cross-referenced to related topics. This title also offers checklists, examples, pitfall warnings and helpful tribunal decision case studies.
