Employment Law Assignment

Hi Poppy,

Just started Employment Law too! I am struggling with the core principles of employment law. Did you found that information? I have the latest Employment Law book from CIPD but still not confident...Any ideas?

That is the book I used and found it really good. It also helped that my tutors were great as I did my L5 at College.

Hi Jules,

Thank you your feedback!
I'm afraid of missing something. Common sense tell me that some core principles are non-discrimination, employment rights, fair dismissal, minimal wage, health and safety, TUPE, family friendly employment law and GRPD.

Agree?

Thanks!

Hi Paula,

What about criminal and civil law? This is the basis of all of the ones you have suggested - it ties them altogether.

My status still says Student Member, but I now have Associate Member level.

Hi Jules... it can tale a while to filter through but I'll look into it.

Congrats for Associate Member status!

Definitely Civil and Criminal law is needed when we talk about employment law. They underpin the core principles itself, as well as the other legislation/Acts.
That's how I am approaching this topic, cover the principles by explaining what laws exists and were created to that purpose.

Thank you, much appreciated

Whilst there are common legal rules and principles that underpin all areas of law, I can’t really accept that civil and especially criminal law otherwise underpin employment law. Of course, a lot of employment law derives from contract law but those aspects of employment law are in themselves civil law and in many instances employment contract law isn’t at all the same as commercial contract law.

Personally, I know next to nothing about such as commercial contract law or tort or criminal law but that hasn’t impeded me one little bit in studying and qualifying in employment law
