Download or read book The Contract of Employment written by Alan Bogg and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 730 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The contract of employment is the central legal institution of modern English employment law. It provides the foundation upon which most statutory employment rights are constructed; it provides a conduit for the implementation of norms negotiated in collective bargaining; and it continues to provide a contractual structure for the terms and conditions of employment for a significant proportion of the working population. The Contract of Employment provides the most ambitious and comprehensive treatise on the theoretical and doctrinal aspects of the English contract of employment in the common law world. Under the general editorship of Professor Mark Freedland, the text has been produced by a team of world leading experts in employment law. Part I examines the theoretical context to the contract of employment, studying its structure and development from a wide variety of theoretical and comparative perspectives. Part II provides an exposition and analysis of the doctrinal aspects of the contract of employment. The coverage of The Contract of Employment is unrivalled in its depth, detail and sophistication. The legal analysis is always informed by a keen sense of the modern labour market context of the contract of employment, and it is sensitive to contemporary challenges such as precariousness, the interaction with migration law, the role of legislation in the contract of employment, and the decline of collective bargaining. It will be the principal reference point for the practitioners, judges, and academics concerned with the contract of employment as a legal category, both nationally and internationally.

Download or read book The New Employment Contract written by Patricia Leighton and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ground-breaking text for managers, personnel professionals and students is the first to bring together the creative detail of employment contract law with the wider agendas of modern management and EU influences. Contracts in their various forms are the key item that underpins all employment relationships and the capability to anticipate and endure change as well as avoiding disputes. If disputes arise the well crafted and well managed contract might itself provide the solution. The book analyses the way contracts are drafted and managed. It explores the way in which contracts can be used effectively to translate and reflect organizational policies and respond to external imperatives, especially often fast moving employment law itself. It deals with many of the practical issues facing managers - flexible contracts, managing employee performance, dealing with misconduct and ending contracts effectively.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been written against a background of increasing interest in the possibilities of using the traditional breach of contract action more widely in employment disputes, in spite of teh existence of the many statutory rights. This area has seen substantial developments in recent years, in both tribunals and courts. The aim of this book is to take stock of these developments and to seek to put some order and structure into them. Although the modern case law has sometimes settled contentious points, more often it has opened up new controversies and possibilities, often requiring reconsideration of some surprisingly fundamental points against the backdrop of contemporary industrial and employment practices.

Download or read book The Legal Construction of Personal Work Relations written by Mark Freedland FBA and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2011-12-15 with total page 504 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the conceptual framework of European employment law, focusing on understanding the law's construction of employment relationships. The book draws on extensive comparative research of the legal architecture of employment relations in national legal systems and EU law to analyse the traditional model of the contract of employment and the difficulties of using the traditional model to frame modern working relationships. The authors then present a new model of the foundations of employment relationships, based on the concept of a personal work nexus, and explore the potential of their model to shape the future development of employment law. Throughout the book, the authors analyse the interaction of domestic and EU employment law, and discuss the possibility of future legal harmonisation in the area. They conclude by exploring the potential for a common framework for European employment law, in the context of broader debates surrounding the harmonisation of European private law.

Download or read book The Employment Contract written by Warren Freedman and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1989-10-24 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written as a comprehensive reference for personnel managers, vice presidents in charge of human resources, and for practicing attorneys, The Employment Contract addresses both the historical development of the employer-employee relationship and current legal practice. In addition to thorough coverage of the many legal and nonlegal concepts and precedents involved, Freedman also offers in-depth analysis of such timely issues as the impact of AIDS on anti-discrimination statutes and problems of sexual harassment in the workplace. Throughout, the discussion is illustrated with ample references to applicable case law. Freedman begins by exploring the traditional master-servant relationship and its impact on beginning concepts of the employment contract. He goes on to trace the law's response to various issues affecting the rights and responsibilities of employers and employees including the termination and dismissal of employees; age, racial, sexual, and religious discrimination; the discriminatory problems of the handicapped; and other federal statutes such as unemployment compensation, the Fair Labor Standards Act, and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA). In a separate chapter devoted to workplace injuries, federal statutes such as Workmens' Compensation and the Federal Employers' Liability Act also receive thorough treatment. The volume concludes with comprehensive discussions of liability to third parties, noncompetitive covenants, unions, and migrant and alien employees.
Download or read book Regulation of Fixed term Employment Contracts written by Roger Blanpain and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades enterprises worldwide have reaped advantages of hiring employees on a contractual fixed-term basis, thus derogating from their traditional participation in the social protection of workers and insulating themselves from legal liability for unjust dismissal. A broad spectrum of effectiveness has emerged in this development, as different countries have adopted varying measures to regulate the conditions under which fixed- term employment contracts are written, applied, and interpreted. This important book --- which reprints papers submitted to the 10th Comparative Labour Law Seminar of the Japan Institute for Labour Policy and Training held in Tokyo on 8 and 9 March 2010 - details the regulatory approaches to fixed-term contracts in major industrial jurisdictions in Asia and Europe, providing an opportunity to explore normative directions for labour law and policy in the age of a diversified workforce. Nine Knowledgeable and experienced contributors describe and analyse the legal status of fixed-term employment contracts (including relevant case law) in Australia, Britain, China, France, Germany, Japan, Korea, Sweden, and Taiwan. Each author takes into account evaluations from scholars, policymakers, and stakeholders to his or her country's regulatory approach to fixed-term employment contracts, revealing an array of responses ranging from a view that such contracts enhance employment opportunities in society to advocating suppression of their use as inherently abusive and discriminatory. The combined effect of these nine essays is to greatly increase our awareness of the nature of fixed-term employment contracts, from their fundamental value as social policy instruments to their inextricable connection with the law of dismissal. The book sets the stage for deeper and more firmly grounded work that promises to elucidate the underlying pattern of a new employer-employee relationship emerging on a worldwide scale.

Download or read book What We Owe Each Other written by Minouche Shafik and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2022-08-23 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From one of the leading policy experts of our time, an urgent rethinking of how we can better support each other to thrive Whether we realize it or not, all of us participate in the social contract every day through mutual obligations among our family, community, place of work, and fellow citizens. Caring for others, paying taxes, and benefiting from public services define the social contract that supports and binds us together as a society. Today, however, our social contract has been broken by changing gender roles, technology, new models of work, aging, and the perils of climate change. Minouche Shafik takes us through stages of life we all experience—raising children, getting educated, falling ill, working, growing old—and shows how a reordering of our societies is possible. Drawing on evidence and examples from around the world, she shows how every country can provide citizens with the basics to have a decent life and be able to contribute to society. But we owe each other more than this. A more generous and inclusive society would also share more risks collectively and ask everyone to contribute for as long as they can so that everyone can fulfill their potential. What We Owe Each Other identifies the key elements of a better social contract that recognizes our interdependencies, supports and invests more in each other, and expects more of individuals in return. Powerful, hopeful, and thought-provoking, What We Owe Each Other provides practical solutions to current challenges and demonstrates how we can build a better society—together.
