Dismissal, discrimination & Unfair Labour Practices

This second edition of Dismissal, Discrimination and Unfair Labour Practices provides a detailed overview of the law relating to the relationship between individuals and their employers from the commencement of that relationship to its termination. First published in 2005, this work incorporates sections on unfair labour practices and discrimination, both areas of the law which are developing at an exponential rate. In the past two years, there have also been significant developments in the law relating to dismissal, both in labour forums and in the civil courts. This volume incorporates these developments and, with its companion Collective Labour Law, covers all aspects of this complicated but fascinating area of the law. As in the previous edition, the text is enlivened with discussion of decided cases, to identify the principles laid down and to illustrate how they are applied. Written in the clear and entertaining style, for which its author is acclaimed, this work will be an indispensable part of any labour law library.
