Over recent years the jurisdiction of the Employment Tribunal has increased dramatically - the vast majority of employment claims are now brought here. And as the value of claims has increased, so too has the complexity of compensation awards and agreements - legal advisers now routinely need to advise on tax and pensions issues. Developments in employment law - notably in discrimination law - have also increased the range of actions brought.

Employment Tribunal Compensation provides a comprehensive, practical and accessible guide to the financial awards available for every type of claim brought to the Tribunal, including wrongful dismissal, unfair dismissal, redundancy, discrimination, equal pay and claims for unpaid wages.

Based on Anthony Korn's well regarded text Compensation for Dismissal, this new edition has been designed with the Tribunal practitioner in mind and has been substantially revised to include a detailed new section on discrimination compensation as well as a fully updated section on compensation for unfair dismissal (including a chapter on compensation for loss of pension rights written by Raymond Jeffers, Head of the London Employment Group at Linklaters).

Readership: Primary: Employment law practitioners - solicitors, barristers, Employment Tribunal Chairmen and members, employment law consultants, and CAB advice workers; trade union representatives.

Secondary: Students of employment law and academics; Human Resources professionals; reference libraries in the UK.
