Employment law: an adviser's handbook provides up to date coverage of UK and European employment and discrimination law. There is clear and succinct commentary on case-law and thorough consideration of the relevant domestic legislation, EU treaties and directives. There is step-by-step guidance for advisers running unfair dismissal and discrimination cases with as much space devoted to evidence, precedents and checklists as to setting out the law. Each chapter starts with a useful summary of key points and there is extensive cross-referencing throughout. The main text is supported by practical resources including sample case papers, a glossary and signposts to other sources of information. This new edition sets out the current position following the abolition of employment tribunal fees, new case-law on the ACAS Early Conciliation procedure, the latest on discrimination compensation, including updating of the Vento guidelines, and the substantial case-law that has developed on the definition of disability discrimination under the Equality Act. Employment law: an adviser's handbook is the essential guide to employment law for all claimant advisers, trade union representatives, lawyers and any individual looking for a comprehensive, yet accessible, guide to employment law.
