Long description
This guide to the law of unfair dismissal, explains the law with authority and in plain language. It is a practical title, for trade unionists and employer representatives (and their legal representatives), HR practitioners and law students. Thoroughly updated, this refers more fully than before to key judgments by the Labour Courts to illustrate important interpretations of the legislation. The author (a practising lawyer, and specialist on the topic), answers the following questions: Who is an employee?; What is a dismissal?; What are the requirements for a fair dismissal?; What are employers' and employees’ respective rights and obligations? If I have been unfairly dismissed what procedures do I follow, and what are my remedies?
