Written in plain-English, there is no time spent deciphering what you need to do, no questions as to how to do it, and no reason to ignore a problem that will not go away on its own. You’ll find chapters on recruiting and hiring, immigration, wages and hours, performance evaluations, discrimination, and MORE! Bonus CD-ROM allows you to search the entire book on your computer.
