Publisher's Synopsis
This handbook provides a comprehensive analysis for managers and personnel professionals of the far-reaching 1993 Trade Union Reform and Employment Rights Act, as well giving an important up date on previous employment statutes.;Marking a watershed in UK legislation by complying with EC law, the act reflects a significant qualitative change towards a more flexible employment system. Joan Henderson argues these policies need to be understood by all practitioners since they have a real effect on workplace policies and practices.;Organized according to subject, with comments on the application of the law, the book forms the first step towards a more contructive law-at-work policy. The emphasis in the guide is on a practical approach and accessible presentation with extensive commentary alongside relevant extracts from the acts to enable readers to understand their rights and obligations.
