Guides to Employment Rights
The Department publishes a number of guides in relation to employment rights. In particular:
- The Guide Isle of Man Employment Rights: a Summary provides a brief outline of employment rights.
- The Guide Isle of Man Employment Rights and Responsibilities: a Guide for Employers, Employees and Workers provides a much more detailed overview of Isle of Man employment law and some other relevant legislation.
See downloadable documents for more detailed guides on specific areas of employment law such as paid holidays and maternity rights.
Further guidance on some very specific topics such as Advertising and the Sex Discrimination Act 2000 can be found by selecting options from the menu at the left of this page (e.g. “Equality at Work”.)
