Description
Employment Law has been developed primarily for students taking an elective module in employment law on the LPC and is suitable for courses with either a corporate or private client focus. The 2015 edition continues to provide a practical and comprehensive guide to the subject and has been fully updated to include recent UK and European case law and developments in employment law practice. Examples and sample documents are included throughout the book to help students understand the practical application of the law, preparing them for the situations they may encounter once qualified. Detailed information is presented clearly and concisely, with the use of flowcharts and diagrams to provide a visual overview of complex processes and areas of common difficulty. End of chapter summaries and self-test questions are also used throughout the book, to help students consolidate their learning and identify areas for further study. This book is also accompanied by a free Online Resource Centre (www.oxfordtextbooks.co.uk/orc/employment2015/) which includes updates to the law post-publication, self-test questions with instant feedback, outline answers to the questions in the book, and electronic versions of flowcharts and diagrams to assist with notes and revision.
