Written specifically for HR and business students, Introduction to Employment Law is a clear, accessible and jargon-free guide to UK employment law and how it applies in practice. This book covers all the essentials of employment law including employment contracts, discrimination, redundancy and employment tribunals. There is also expert guidance on key issues including shared parental leave, flexible working policies and protected characteristics. Fully revised with the latest cases and legal developments, this new edition includes coverage of the rights of agency workers, bereavement leave, furlough practices and the legal implications of Brexit. This textbook doesn't assume any prior knowledge of the UK legal system and equips students with the knowledge and skills that they need to take forward into the workplace. Packed with pedagogical features to consolidate learning including tasks, examples, explore further sections and key learning points as well as a dedicated study skills chapter covering employment law assignments and exams, Introduction to Employment Law is essential reading for all students studying the CIPD Level 5 Intermediate module in employment law. It is also an accessible introduction for Level 7 students and those on undergraduate and postgraduate business courses needing a thorough grounding in employment law. Online resources include lecture slides, case studies, annotated weblinks and an instructor's manual.

Industry Reviews
"A great introduction to what is arguably the most important aspect of people management, given we can neither manage people fairly nor well if we can't as a minimum do it lawfully. A clear, easy-to-read book which is a veritable page-turner in this genre! Highly recommended not just for HR students but for anyone managing people in the UK." * Keith F Watson, LL.M, Chartered FCIPD FCMI FLPI, FITOL Director 360 HR Solutions and Tutor on CIPD Qualifications *
"An excellent text for those studying law, HR, business, or those who simply want to understand employment law in the workplace. In this fully up to date sixth Edition, Professor Daniels has provided a clear, concise and accessible text of this often complicated area of law." * Neil Pritchard, Senior Lecturer, Glyndwr University *
"This new edition continues to provide a comprehensive guide to all aspects of employment law. With its practical focus and clearly explained case law, it is such a user-friendly text for both business and HRM students, and in particular those studying a CIPD qualification." * Helen Bessant, CIPD Chief Moderator and Online Tutor for ICS Learn *
"I highly recommend Kathy Daniels' book. She is able to take key concepts and distill them into a form that is readily understood by students ranging from those just beginning their studies of employment law to competent professionals seeking an up-to-date reference text. It provides a valuable resource for all those needing an understanding of UK employment law." * Suzanne Alexander, Commercial Pathway Lead for the CILEX Law School *

Now in its 6th Edition, with her combined academic and professional background, Kathy brings an informed, contemporary and applied approach to this often complex but important area of the law and HR practice." * Carole Parkes, Emeritus Professor of Responsible Management & Leadership, University of Winchester *
"I have recommended this textbook as essential reading on CIPD courses, particularly as a key text for Level 5 and as a thorough introduction to employment law at Level 7. Learners appreciate the book's practical focus and study skills chapter for writing assessments. The sixth edition has been fully revised, addressing key contemporary developments including Brexit and furlough. Accessible and clearly written with the latest case law, this excellent, 'go-to' textbook is ideal for independent learners and learners studying online or in the classroom." * Adelaide Shone, CIPD Lecturer, Cheshire College - South & West *
