Book Reviews of 365 Answers About Human Resources for the Small Business Owner: What Every Manager Needs to Know About Work Place Law

Book Review: Interesting Information
Summary: 3 Stars

This book is a good book to read, just don't expect it to be a one-stop reading type book. It gives you some good basics, but it's definitely not for someone who is trying to run a HR dept without any knowledge, only using this book. It helps give you a clearer idea of what track you are on and it's good for someone in the company that wants a general overview of their small business HR dept. I would recommend this book for a quick good read, but you will still need to supplement with other reading materials or research.
