Synopsis

Employment Law introduces the issues involved in the regulation of employees and their relations with their employers. It explains the framework governing employment contracts, dismissal procedures and redundancy payments. The book also covers TUPE, discrimination law and family friendly legislation. This fully updated and revised edition includes an updated section on the relationship of employer and employee and how status is being determined by courts and tribunals, including the Court of Appeal decision in Secretary of State for BERR v Neufield (on whether a shareholder can be an employee). Flowcharts at the end of chapters have been updated to take account of all recent changes. The book is up to date as at 31 October 2009.
