Corporate Insolvency: Employment and Pension Rights, 5th edition, is the only book of its kind to successfully bridge the gap between the three distinct disciplines of pensions, employment and corporate insolvency law. How this book can help you in your work: Through a mix of legislation, case law, analysis and comment, this well-regarded text will give you all the information you need to answer your clients' questions. It outlines the legal principles applicable where the three regimes interact, with a particular focus on the application of the rules relating to corporate insolvency and how they impact on employees and their pension rights. For example: * How is the position of employees affected by the appointment of an insolvency practitioner over their employing company? * Who is liable, and what priority is given to past or future claims? Your one-stop source of the latest case law and legislation: There have been significant changes in case law and legislation since publication of the last edition in 2009.
You'll find comprehensive coverage of all these changes in the new Corporate Insolvency: Employment and Pension Rights, including: * The latest case law on pre-pack sales and Tupe * Case law on provable debts and insolvency expenses * Financial support directions and contribution notices determinations by the Pensions Regulator * Key cases on moratorium in insolvency * The latest Tupe case law * Valuable pensions cases on identifying the employer Why you should read this book: Corporate Insolvency: Employment and Pension Rights is cited in many works focusing on the employment and insolvency fields. If you work as an employment, pensions or corporate insolvency practitioner, you'll find its up-to-date case law and practical analysis an essential aid to your work.
