There is still much to learn about fundamental aspects of employment discrimination law as a social system. What drives the growing demand for litigation? To what extent does discrimination persist in subtle but pervasive forms and what explains how it varies by organizational and market context? How do different groups of workers perceive the extent to which they are discriminated against and what, if anything, do they do about it? How have employers responded to discrimination law? How is employment discrimination law affected by broader political and legal currents? What is the relationship between anti-discrimination law and patterns of social inequality?The chapters in this unique collection grapple with many of these issues. Questions of this scope require interdisciplinary scholarship; and this volume includes original contributions from many of the legal scholars, economists, psychologists, sociologists, political scientists, and historians who are at the forefront of new research on discrimination and law. The Handbook of Employment Discrimination Research encompasses critical discussions across different social science disciplines, as well as between legal scholars and social scientists. As a collection, the chapters suggest a broad reconsideration of employment discrimination and its treatment in law.

"Termination can be a costly exercise and it is essential that policies and procedures are in place to ensure that the law is complied with, the outcome is fair to all parties, and there are no repercussions at a later date. This second edition of Termination of Employment is a best practice guide to terminating the employment of an employee for a range of reasons, including poor performance, misconduct, redundancy and restructuring. It examines the new test for justifiability (introduced in 2011) and explains when and how an employer can justifiably dismiss an employee. It discusses appropriate policies that might be adopted and procedures that ought to be followed. It also provides clear case examples of good and bad practice in various employment termination scenarios"--Publisher information."Termination can be a costly exercise and it is essential that policies and procedures are in place to ensure that the law is complied with, the outcome is fair to all parties, and there are no repercussions at a later date.
