Employment and Industrial Relations law is a fast moving and dynamic subject. In the course of writing this book, related new Bills were introduced in the Parliament of Uganda while others were being passed into law requiring the author every so often to go back and forth. The book presents a comprehensive treatment of labour and employment law topics in Uganda. International employment law themes have been discussed such as employee considerations in Mergers and Acquisitions, usage of social media in the workplace, employee secondment, redundancies, volunteerism, background checks, sexual harassment at the workplace, whistleblowing, intellectual property rights arising in the context of employment among others. The book covers the entire spectrum of labour rights recognition, protection, enjoyment and enforcement in post 2006 Uganda. The author discusses how the courts of law in Uganda especially the Industrial Court have construed the various provisions of the laws on Employment and Industrial Relations. Inspiration has also been drawn from decided cases from other jurisdictions especially Kenya. The book will be a valuable resource for practising Advocates, lawyers, law students, Human Resource Practitioners, employees, employers, trade unions among others. The book also will go a long way in assisting Policy makers involved in reforming this area of law. This work substantially contains all laws and key decided cases on Employment and Industrial Relations Law in Uganda.
