A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Employment law is a complex and ever changing subject, which is particularly influenced by European law. This new edition provides students with fifty questions, answer plans and sample answers that highlight how best to approach the subject in preparation for an exam. Fully revised and updated, it also contains several new questions on the most topical subjects within employment law.

Material covered in the new edition includes:

• recent decisions of both domestic courts and the European Court of Justice
• changes introduced by the implementation of European Directives, such as the Employment Equality (Sexual Orientation) Regulations 2003 and the Employment Equality (Religion or Belief) Regulations 2003
• changes made by the Employment Act 2004 and the Employment Act 2002 (Dispute Resolution) Regulations 2004.

For undergraduate students taking an employment law option, this book encourages students to gain the confidence they need for exam success by introducing each subject before looking at several possible exam questions and answers. Students studying for professional qualifications, such as CIPD, will also find this a useful and helpful tool.
