Avoid the pitfalls in...age, disability, gender, race, religion, sex and sexual orientation. This practical briefing for employers and their advisers will ensure that you do not fall foul of the law on age and all the other anti-discrimination laws. Are you prepared? The new Age Discrimination Act is billed by lawyers as the most significant change in employment law since the 1970's. How prepared are you to deal with its implications? Are you fully aware of what can and cannot be said in recruitment ads - or even in the office? In addition to sex and race discrimination laws, in the last two years employers have also had to cope with sexual orientation discrimination and religious discrimination. And now from October age discrimination. David Martin, an expert on employment law and practice, analyzes the practical aspects of dealing with each of the anti-discrimination laws. He demonstrates how to ensure that paperwork and systems comply totally with the law and he provides a range of helpful case studies to illustrate the key issues and bring them to life.
All employers and their professional advisers will find David Martin's practical approach and clear analysis of how to comply with the various discrimination laws invaluable - Sex and sexual orientation discrimination; Race and religious discrimination; Disability discrimination; Age discrimination; Non-standard employees discrimination; and Human rights.
