Statement of main terms and conditions of employment

Employment contracts are an extremely contentious area for HR professionals. This is exacerbated by the extreme state of flux with changes to TUPE scheduled, increasing work-life balance and anti-discrimination legislation forthcoming. All of which will impact greatly on how organisations prepare employee contracts.

Furthermore, contracts are the pivot of which the employer/employee relationship hangs. Get the contract wrong and the employer is potentially liable for a costly employment tribunal or dispute procedure.

The book provides all the basic information but will go one step further by providing more detailed information in such a way that the HR professional will understand - practical and non-legalistic. A handy CD-Rom is also supplied with the handbook.
