Overview

This UK Employment Law Level 2 is designed to give you an overview of UK employment law. Through the course, you will learn how the law affects employers and workers across many domains, from recruitment to redundancy.

It will provide an insightful yet interesting dive into the characteristics of employment contracts, unfair dismissal claims, wrongful dismissal claims, redundancy, breach of contract, discriminatory in the workplace, employee rights and ever developing European Union regulations impacting on UK domestic laws. Beginning with a straightforward overview of the areas addressed by employment law, it then moves into highly specific areas including sick leave and disciplinary procedures.

It will explore the rules that regulate and underpin our relationship with our employer and when difficulties arise, what remedies and options are available for the involved parties. This course will provide you not only with a better understanding of your rights within the workplace, but it will also be invaluable if you employ staff. Anyone who employs one or more people to work for them must fulfill their duties under the law, and this course will provide you with an excellent overview of the points you need to consider. It will also be useful to those considering working as trade union representatives or thinking of a career in this field.

Learning about the law can be very difficult, but if you are provided with the right materials, I must say that it wasn’t that hard. I was able to learn while having fun through this site. Thanks!

Leon

Just amazed by the quality of the course. I have tried this same course from some other providers as well but found this to be the best one. Much informative with a broad discussion on the UK law.

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

CPD stands for Continuing Professional Development. If you work in certain professions or for certain companies, your employer may require you to complete a number of CPD hours or points, per year. You can find a range of CPD courses on Reed Courses, many of which can be completed online.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
