Partnerships often face unique issues which more general works on employment law do not cover. The law governing the rights of equity partners differs significantly from that which applies to employees, but there is also an overlap, most importantly with discrimination laws. Drawing on real-life experiences within the partnership environment, the authors provide practical guidance on how to deal with a wide range of human resource issues.
The book focuses on case studies to illustrate the points, and gives advice and hints on dealing with the legislation on issues such as partnership deeds, partners' duties, discrimination and terms of employment. This title is a comprehensive, yet succinct guide to employment law, which is highly recommended to all professional partnerships.
