Employment Law for Business
Author: Dawn Bennett-Alexander
ISBN-10: 0073377635
ISBN-13: 9780073377636
Published: 2008-11-11
Publisher: McGraw-Hill/Irwin

Book Description:
Bennett-Alexander and Hartman's Employment Law for Business, 6/e addresses law and employment decisions from a managerial perspective. It is intended to instruct students on how to manage effectively and efficiently with full comprehension of the legal ramifications of their decisions. Students are shown how to analyze employment law facts using concrete examples of management-related legal dilemmas that do not present clear-cut solutions. The methods of arriving at resolutions are emphasized, so that when the facts of the workplace problem are not quite the same, the student can still reach a good decision based on the legal considerations required by law, which remain relevant.
