Employment Law (New Horizons in International Business)

This Guide deals with the contractual and statutory issues that arise in the individual employment law setting. It covers formation and operation of the contract of employment, confidentiality, restraint of trade, transfer of businesses and discrimination, as well as the statutory rightsrelating to unfair dismissal and redundancy. It is designed for use on Legal Practice Courses, which take either a corporate or private client bias, and offers a practical and comprehensive guide to the preventative measures that can be taken and the problems most commonly presented to a solicitor. The 2001 edition provides practical guidance on recent UK and European case law. It also includes material on the extensive range of case law and the piecemeal statutory developments which have occurred during 2000. This edition discusses the impact that the commencement of the Human Rights Act 1998is likely to have on employment law.Holland, James is the author of 'Employment Law (New Horizons in International Business)' with ISBN 9781841742014 and ISBN 1841742015.
