A Practical Guide to Labour Law is a practical student work which aims to simplify the study of labour law and encourage independent thinking and greater understanding of the subject among labour law students. It is also used extensively by labour relations/IR practitioners in training and in their everyday practical work. This new edition includes the recent amendments to the Basic Conditions of Employment Act and Labour Relations Act which came into effect in August 2002 and the new Unemployment Insurance Act and Unemployment Insurance Contributions Act, which took effect on 1 April 2002, making this work completely up-to-date in terms of the labour legislation contained in it.
