This casebook collects the most important decisions and other materials in employment law together. Designed to be used in conjunction with any employment law textbook, it contains extracts from over 200 British and EC cases, together with British and European legislative provisions and excerpts from Reports, Command Papers and other sources.
'Cases and Materials on Employment Law is, however, an excellent text: the materials are superbly selected and are wonderfully woven into the comments and notes. Pitt also draws on her considerable expertise of employment law by posing a number of interesting and thought-provoking questions throughout the text.'
