Employment Law in Practice

Published in conjunction with The City Law School, the Bar Manuals are written specifically for students on the Bar Professional Training Course by expert teams of practising barristers and current or former tutors. Each manual provides a practical guide to the law, practice, and procedure of the individual subject, and offers clear explanations of the relevant substantive and procedural law. Where appropriate, the manuals contain worked examples, sample documentation, and exercises. Employment Law in Practice provides full coverage of the substantive areas of employment law likely to be encountered by a lawyer in the early years of practice.Topics covered include unfair dismissal, breach of contract, discrimination, equal pay, and family friendly provisions.This manual also employs sample cases to illustrate how to complete relevant forms, deal with interlocutory stages, and use special procedures and record settlements to encourage students to develop and practise their legal skills in an employment law context.
