    Introduction to Employment Law is a clear, accessible and jargon-free guide to UK employment law and its application in the workplace.

    Written specifically for HR and business students, this book provides a thorough grounding in the essentials of employment law. All areas of employment law are addressed, including employment contracts, discrimination, redundancy and the legal duties of both the employer and the employee. This new edition has been updated throughout to cover the latest case law and legal developments including changes to annual leave, areas of family leave including Carer's Leave and developments in discrimination legislation. Assuming no prior knowledge of the UK legal system, this is ideal reading for all those studying the specialist employment law module on the CIPD Associate Diploma. It is also an accessible introduction for Advanced Diploma students and those on general business degrees who need an introduction to UK employment law.

    This book is packed with pedagogical features to help consolidate learning including tasks, examples, explore further sections, key learning points and a dedicated study skills chapter. Online resources include lecture slides, case studies, weblinks, multiple choice questions and an instructor's manual.
