Description
The 8th edition of this acclaimed textbook provides a comprehensive analysis of current British labour law and addresses the most recent developments in the field.
Deakin and Morris' Labour Law, a work cited as authoritative in the higher appellate courts of several jurisdictions, explains the role of different legal and extra-legal sources in the evolution of British labour law, including collective bargaining, international labour standards, and human rights.
The new edition, while following the broad pattern of previous ones, highlights important new developments in the content of the law, and in its wider social, economic and political context. There is full coverage of the changes made by the Employment Rights Act 2025 and detailed analysis of the developing case law, including the Supreme Court decisions in PGMOL, Tesco, and For Women Scotland. There is extensive discussion of legal responses to algorithmic management and the use of AI in the workplace.
The book examines in detail the law governing individual employment relations, with chapters covering the definition of the employment relationship; the sources and regulation of terms and conditions of employment; discipline and termination of employment; and equality of treatment. This is followed by an analysis of the elements of collective labour law, including the forms of collective organisation, freedom of association, employee representation, internal trade union government, and the law relating to industrial action.
The 8th edition of Deakin and Morris' Labour Law is an essential text for students of law and of disciplines related to management and industrial relations, for barristers and solicitors working in the field of labour law, and for all those with a serious interest in the subject.
