A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

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, family friendly legislation and provides an introduction to health and safety law. 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 in the context of agency workers, taking into account the Court of Appeal decisions in Enfield Technical Services Ltd v Payne and Others (on individuals who characterise themselves as self-employed for tax purposes), James v Greenwich Borough Council (on whether agency workers are employees) and the Agency Workers Directive. The Court of Appeal decision in Harlow v Artemis International Corporation Ltd (on whether redundancy policies are contractual) is included. The book has also been updated to take account of a number of important EAT decisions on the interpretation of the statutory dispute resolution procedures and procedural fairness, including Towergate London Market Ltd v Harris, Davies v Farnborough College of Technology, McAdie v RBS, Claridge v Daler Rowney Ltd, and Yorkshire Housing v Swanson and the important Court of Appeal decisions in Airbus v Webb, GAB Robbins (UK) Ltd v Triggs, Wilmot v Selvarajan and Kuzel v Roche Products Ltd. The book also includes an update on the new draft Acas Code of Practice on discipline and grievance. The chapter on TUPE has been updated to include a number of recent EAT decisions including Hollis Metal Industries v GMB, Kimberley Group Housing Ltd (the first EAT decision on the new service change provisions) and Capital Health Solutions v BBC as well as the Court of Appeal decision in Regent Security Services v Power.
