Corporate Insolvency: Employment Rights is the only book of its kind to successfully bridge the gap between the two distinct disciplines of employment and corporate insolvency law by drawing out the legal principles applicable where the different legal regimes interact.

Providing in-depth analysis and drawing together legislation, case law, analysis and comment Corporate Insolvency: Employment Rights focuses on the application of the rules relating to corporate insolvency and how they impact on employees.
