Description

This is a practical guidebook on the rights and duties of company directors. In a clear style, which includes a glossary of legal terms for the benefit of non-lawyers, the author has encapsulated both common law and case law relating to company directors. It employs a practical approach by using charts, checklists, step-by-step procedures and precedents. It also includes coverage of the increasing demands of the Cadbury and Greenbury Committee proposals. Directors' duties under legislation such as health and safety and environmental law are dealt with.
