IR Network
IR Network is your real-time labour-relations solution – an internet-based service that enables HR and legal practitioners to operate effectively in the field of Labour Law. The IR Network service has been developed using enhanced delivery systems to bring you superior labour relations content which is easy to find, with editorial identification and comment on important cases and sources.
Online commentary and reference work
IR Network contains a new online commentary work, Basic Principles of South African Labour Law written by the Consulting Editor. This practical work enables you to study all issues related to labour-law, ranging from individual and collective labour-relations, to unfair dismissal, unfair labour practices, and organisational rights. Available in electronic format on the IR Network site, you can find information effortlessly, using the specialist search facility within the publication. A number of practical action lists ensure that you follow the correct formats when dealing with procedural labour issues. You can also choose to receive emails containing links to important new information on the site through an alerting service.
