Publisher's Synopsis
The Employment Relations Act 1999 is the Labour Government's flagship reform of individual and collective employment law. The Act repeals elements of the Trade Union and Labour Relations (Consolidation) Act 1992 and substitutes additional, and potentially far reaching, new trade union provisions. Additionally, at the individual level, it supplements a variety of rights provided by the Employment Rights Act 1996. This Guide provides a clear and logical explanation of this substantial and wide ranging statute. Written in a straightforward and practical style, it will prove to be an indispensable guide for the practitioner involved in all aspects of employment work. It will also be essential reading for human resources and personnel managers, trade unions and union solicitors. The book contains a copy of the Act.
