An accompanying CD-ROM contains a range of time-saving proforma letters, precedents and agreements.

Media Reviews
'The book has an admirably succinct and practical approach, gets straight to the point in summarising the law, and commingles this with useful, practical tips clearly derived from the author's considerable experience. Its structure, content and approach is that of a practical handbook and, as such, it should save the busy practitioner time.' New Law Journal 'The appendices are on a CD, which will enable readers simply to cut and paste the clauses required - an excellent idea that many practitioners will take advantage of. Overall, this is an excellent book, covering a vast amount of information. As John Bowers QC and Michael Duggan rightly say in the foreword: 'the busy high street practitioner will find [this] an indispensable handbook'. However, it is also an excellent starting point for any specialist employment practitioner wishing to explore the area in more depth. The overview provided by the book, coupled with the case and statute citations will ensure that it is a favoured reference point for many readers.' Employment Law Journal, July/August 2005
