\nof the following areas of employment law affects HR practice within Amazon.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00b7        
\n<\/span><\/span><\/span>the
\nnational living wage.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Portfolio Note <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

This
\nassessment has been specifically designed in such a way as to fit nicely with
\nthe evidence you need to provide in your portfolio: PDP 22, Evidence of
\nwhen\/how you have interpreted and applied specific legislation and case law and
\nassessed its impact.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Intended Learning Objectives
\n(ILO) assessed:<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

ILO 3: Provide advice regarding employment law, (including associated
\ncase law), different theories and perspectives on employee relations and
\nemployee body relationships, and the implications on people policies and
\npractices.<\/span><\/p>\n

ILO 4: Identify legal risks arising from human resource management
\ndecisions, providing advice to ensure organisations remain legally compliant in
\ntheir human resource management activities.<\/span><\/p>\n

ILO 6: Critically discuss how the relationship between an organisation
\nand its people is managed through transparent practices and relevant law whilst
\ntaking account of different theories and perspectives on employee relations.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Guidelines for assignment<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Illustrate your answer with organisational examples. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

You
\nshould assume that the reader is already familiar with the principles of
\nemployment law, so there is no need to describe or explain these. The focus
\nshould be on your analysis, any critique you would like to make, and on
\nrecommendations for changes either to the law or to your organisation\u2019s HR practices.
\n<\/span><\/p>\n

You
\nmay draw on ideas and literature from outside the legal field (e.g., economic,
\nsocial, ethical etc.) in developing your arguments, but please ensure that your
\nanalysis focuses largely on UK law and not on the social problems that the law
\nseeks to address, nor on the law in other countries. Take care to justify any
\nproposals for legal reform clearly.<\/span><\/p>\n

When citing court case judgements
\nin your writing there is no need to include the entire reference unless you
\nwant to. All that is necessary is the date in the main text \u2013 i.e., Smith v
\nJones et al (2018) \u2013 and then a list of cases in the bibliography at the end.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Referencing<\/span><\/u><\/b>:<\/span><\/b> <\/span><\/span><\/u><\/p>\n

You must provide a list
\nof the articles and texts you have referred to. You should use the <\/span>APA<\/span><\/b> 7th<\/sup> <\/span><\/b>system of referencing.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
