Discrimination Law and Practice
Discrimination Law and
Practice
by C Ronalds & R Pepper
Federation Press, 2004
$49.50
Anti-discrimination is somewhat of a no-brainer for HR and IR professionals. However the increasing complexity of law combined with issues such as training up new managers presents a number of potential challenges.
In this revised edition of Discrimination Law and
Practice, authors Chris Ronald and Rachel Pepper expand upon issues such as grounds of discrimination, harassment and liability to cover issues such as vilification, racial hatred and mechanisms for enforcing federal discrimination laws. One particularly useful section for people management professionals is a new chapter which examines the remedies obtained by those who pursue claims through the courts and the range and type of orders usually made. Ronald and Pepper also include a comprehensive section on industrial laws.
The book comes with a complete table of cases and statutes for further reference, along with appendices covering relevant legislation across different states, exceptions to coverage and conciliation/inquiry powers. Discrimination Law and
Practice is a legal text, and as such, makes for pretty dry reading. But its concise approach and clear layout makes it easy to browse and locate relevant interest areas.
