Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
This book offers a roadmap for the future development of age discrimination law in common law countries to better address workplace ageism. It critically considers how the suggested four-fold model of reform might address the limits of existing laws and the practical measures necessary to ensure their success.
MoreLong description:
Age is a critical issue for labour market policy. Both younger and older workers experience significant challenges at work. Despite the introduction of age discrimination laws, ageism remains prevalent.
Reforming Age Discrimination Law offers a roadmap for the future development of age discrimination law in common law countries, to better address workplace ageism. Drawing on theoretical, doctrinal, and empirical legal scholarship, and comparative perspectives from the United Kingdom, Australia, and Canada, the book provides a socio-legal critique of existing age discrimination laws and their enforcement and proposes concrete suggestions for legal reform and change. Building on legal and interdisciplinary insights, it examines the challenges and limitations of existing legal frameworks and the individual enforcement model for addressing age discrimination in employment. It also maps the stages of claiming, negotiation, or alternative dispute resolution, and hearing and judgment, using mixed-method case studies of the enforcement of age discrimination law in the United Kingdom and Australia.
This volume puts forward a four-fold model of reform which aims to improve the individual enforcement model, strengthen positive equality duties, bolster the roles of statutory equality agencies, and enhance collective enforcement. It goes on to critically consider how these options might address the limits of existing laws, and the practical measures necessary to ensure their success and to move beyond the individual enforcement of age discrimination law.
This is a comprehensive, rigorous and meticulously drawn socio-legal study of the legal response to age discrimination in the workplace, which offers important analysis of a significant current problem in Australian society. The study is very well researched, and built from and situated appropriately in a strong, relevant and credible literature base. It is novel through applying an extremely well designed and sophisticated methodology, involving mixed methods, inclduing qualitative and quantitative methods, doctrinal analysis and the analysis ofcomparative and empirical data. This study makes a substantive contribution to the literature, offering a fresh and original analysis of empirical and comparative data alongside more conventional doctrinal and qualitative analyses.
