Employment Law: The Essential HR Desk Reference di Lisa Guerin J.D.
Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.A dictionary of basic employment law jargon. I would say it would be most useful to small business owners who do not have an HR department. The only thing I would have liked to see in this book is more legal references and court cases.
Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.Put it under the tree or in a stocking for your favorite HR person or manager.
I approached this book by reviewing seven different HR situations I encountered in the last five years. In all but one case there was a clear answer or guidance that could have saved the employer both consternation and money.
You don't tell a fifty-four year old licensed part-time employee that they are too old to work full time. Don't tell a three week new hire that an eyebrow piercing is cause for termination when a) it isn't covered in the contract, and b) 10% of your fourteen hundred employees have facial piercings. It is bad from for a government agency to pay a Per Diem employee for only four of the five days worked because, "we have always done it that way."
In each of those cases, and the others I researched, Mangers and HR staff would have received the guidance they needed.
This book is what it says it is. The Essential HR (Quick) Desk Reference to Employment Law. If nothing else, it helps the reader formulate the questions they ask counsel.… (altro)

Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.good attempt at breaking down the legalese - handy book to have for reference.
Questa recensione è stata scritta per Recensori in anteprima di LibraryThing.A useful addition to the bookshelf of anyone who is responsible for keeping an eye on a company's legal obligations to its work force. It provides the answers to many questions that arise frequently and would also be helpful in making the decision as to when the lawyers should become involved. The parts that I've sampled appear very user friendly.
