Employment law is a potential minefield for the inexperienced and uninitiated. It is one area of law that is probably in the most constant state of change, often because of European Community legislation. It is vital that employers stay abreast of developments and be fully and properly advised about relevant law and procedures, and that employees are too aware of their rights.
