EMPLOYMENT LAW FOR HUMAN RESOURCE PRACTICE, 4TH EDITION explains the major issues and rules of employment law and how they apply to your human resource career. Clippings of current news stories and events, hypothetical situations, and real cases help you understand how the law applies to each stage of employment--from hiring, to managing, to firing--and emphasize the application of legal concepts to future business situations. Practical advice for what to do as a manager is conveniently summarized at the end of each chapter.
