"Directors and Managers Law Made Easy helps you stay ahead of your legal obligations. It provides up-to-date commentary in plain English, covering real-world situations, written specifically for the New Zealand market. Its accessible style does not compromise on conveying the substance of the law. Giving directors a sound knowledge of the basics of the relevant law will provide more time to focus on directing and managing the business. All the big issues facing directors are covered. This includes the directors’ duties found in the Companies Act 1993, and the newly updated health and safety legislation. It also covers directors’ powers when delegating to employees, signing documents and holding meetings. The book focuses on practical advice and analysis. Simple steps go a long way to limiting exposure, avoiding penalties and increasing business efficiency." --Publisher's website.
