Employment Law

What is it about?

It is dangerous to have managers who do not understand the basics of employment law. This course provides a clear explanation of employment law issues in a practical context, and highlights some of the potential pitfalls, which may lead to claims of discrimination or unfair dismissal. Real-life cases are used to illustrate major points, and delegates will work through cases and scenarios to reinforce their understanding of the complex issues involved.
