Although originally written for SVQ candidates, many social workers and social work students find this a quick and easy guide.

It's so easy to dip in and out of and gives clear and succinct information on the relevant legislation.

The knowledge specifications of SVQs refer to the legal framework of the area of practice covered. This handy reference guide covers all of the legislation relevant to the area of work specified.

The fifth edition of this best seller has information about the laws that govern and shape social care practice and services and is relevant for staff who are working at SVQ levels 2,3 and 4.

There is an expanded section on legislation relevant to staff who work in children’s services as well as sections that apply to all staff and sections that apply to staff who work with adults.

The guide contains two indexes - one based on SVQ units and one based on specific Acts of Parliament, to aid quick and easy reference.
