NEWS IN BRIEF

No one can pretend that employment law is easy, so when the government produces a free handbook, it’s usually worth having. And that is definitely true of “Individual rights and responsibilities of employees. A guide for employers and employees” which has been updated to reflect the latest changes in employment law.

This guide outlines employees' and workers' individual rights and responsibilities and the corresponding obligations for employers. It covers contracts, pay, dismissal, parental legislation, other time off, anti discrimination law as well as other statutory employment rights, complaints and remedies.

It is available from the BERR Publications Orderline (0845 015 0010, quoting URN 07/1416).

Or you can order it online at www.berr.gov.uk/publications/index.html

Alternatively, you can download it for free on:www.berr.gov.uk/files/file34565.pdf.
