In this sixth annual publication of Labour & Employment, we have maintained the same general question-and-answer format to address many common issues that arise in the employment setting. The questions have been organised into the following categories:

• legislation and agencies;
• worker representation;
• background information on applicants;
• hiring of employees;
• foreign workers;
• terms of employment;
• liability for acts of employees;
• taxation of employees;
• employee-created IP;
• business transfers;
• termination of employment; and
• dispute resolution.
