Which term is used to describe the body of laws governing employment practices such as discrimination in recruitment and promotion?

• A. CPD
• B. Employment Legislation
• C. External Recruitment
• D. Demography

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is the legal framework that sets rules for how employers hire, promote, and treat employees. This framework is Employment Legislation, which comprises the laws that govern employment practices, including anti-discrimination in recruitment and promotion, equal opportunity rights, contracts, wages, and safety. It’s the body of rules organizations must follow to ensure fair treatment and legal compliance. The other terms don’t fit: CPD relates to updating skills, external recruitment is a hiring method, and demography is the study of population characteristics, none of which describe the governing laws for employment practices.
