Duggan Press has been established to publish high quality practitioners' Textbooks in the field of Law and Human Resources. The books form the core of the employment library and new editions will be published on a phased basis, and regularly thereafter, so that they remain up to date.
This work should be on the desk of every lawyer and Human Resources person who advises on employment issues, and will be invaluable to business people who deal with employment contracts.
In this article from ELA Briefing I consider the issue of when grief becomes a disability under the Equality Act 2010. This is of particular relevance given the current pandemic.
Briefing 23 considers a recent case, Duchy Farm Kennels v Steels,[2020] EWHC 1208 (QB) , which deals with the effect of breach of a confidentiality clause on a Settlement Agreement and makes practical suggestions as to what to include in such a clause.
This note contains a comprehensive look at the spate of cases on the definition of disability, unfavourable treatment and reasonable adjustments that have been decided so far in 2020.
There is a lengthy chapter in Duggan QC on Contracts of Employment (4th Ed) which considers all these issues in depth as well as providing practical tips and precedents.
