Discrimination : A Guide to the Relevant Case Law on Sex, Race and Disability Discrimination and Equal Pay (19 Rev ed)

The 19th edition of this annually updated Guide takes into account the effect on the case law of the discrimination cases reported in Industrial Relations Law Reports (IRLR) during 2005.

Since 1972, there have been some 700 significant decisions by the appellate courts reported in Industrial Relations Law Reports interpreting the statutory discrimination provisions.

The Guide extracts from these cases the main principles concerning employment discrimination that still can be regarded as binding authority.

It aims to assist those advising, acting or adjudicating in this jurisdiction on the current approach of the courts to the range of problems of interpretation posed by the statutes.

The Guide takes the law as it stood at the end of 2005 and includes cases reported in IRLR up to the end of 2005.
