Labour Law
Taught
Employment law is a fascinating, topical and fast-moving area of law involving social, political, economic and philosophical questions about a key area of ordinary life, work. These questions often shape and influence employment law and how it has developed over the years.
You will develop a comprehensive understanding of the laws that influence HR policies and practices within a business, in addition to an understanding of the context within which their advice is being sought, the potential impact such advice may have on a business and where business decisions may have to be made.
The LLM in Employment Law and Practice consists of four taught modules: Critical Theories and Policies of Employment Law, Individual Employment Rights, Collective Labour Rights and Redundancy, and Equal Opportunities and Discrimination in the Workplace. These modules present an opportunity to critically analyse all the critical aspects of Employment Law in Practice. The programme concludes with a dissertation module in which you will develop an in-depth inquiry into a research topic of your choice which may relate directly to your future career aspirations and interests.
