EMPLOYMENT LAW
Introduction to employment law - A one day course for HR professionals and line managers
This course is designed to provide a basic introduction to the key areas of UK employment law. It focuses on those areas on which an employer is most likely to be challenged in an employment tribunal and on exploring commercial and practical solutions to common employment law problems.
