More often than not, it will feature a manufacturing company, but this isn’t always necessary as long as the message is a pertinent one.   As well as a recap of the basics of the law in the relevant area, Casebook deals with the employer’s actions in dealing with the matter right through to the Employment Tribunal’s findings, and even the Employment Appeal Tribunal’s findings   In a Verdict piece, questions are asked of the reader, based on what they have read on the first page, and these are answered on the second. These include whether the company have acted better in some way in its handling of the case, was one particular point in the proceedings crucial to the outcome?   Filter:  --- All Items --- Case Book Verdict   Showing 1 to 25 out of 28 results   Keep an eye on IT Employers who monitor their employees’ internet use must ensure the appropriate policies are in place  15/04/2008    Altered Image What constitutes a ‘reasonable adjustment’ when it comes to accommodating employees with disabilities?
