Introduction
Legal system means the rules, procedures and the institutions by which public and private
initiatives carries the legitimate which was made by the government of country. This is also
known as the legal structure which interpretates and enforces the laws which are made
legally. This system always elaborates and describes the policies and the responsibilities in an
effective way. Legal structure is important for each organisation and legal system is
important for each country as maintains an order with the public and society. It is important
in an organisation as it helps the business in ethical normality, thinking skills, planning and
legal reasoning. Legal system is needed in each country as it protects the right of an
individual and no body has the authority to break the law in any circumstances. Each citizen
has to follow the law which is imposed by the government. This report involves three parts,
in first part the legal system of UK has been described and two laws are also involved that are
civil law and criminal law. In second part different source of law has been explained and
lastly employment law has been explained in the context of the organisation.

PART 1
Define laws and identify the respective legal systems in UK.
Laws are the set of policies, procedures and rules which is made by an government of an
country in an effective manner in order to make a better legal structure which resolves the
problems and issues which is impacting an individual or an society. The rules which is
imposed by the government is for the justice of the society. These are different and made
according to the country and these laws are always applicable within that specific
country(Wessels, and Madaus, 2020). The responsibilities’ helps to develop an legal structure
in an effective manner and make strong legal system. In different countries these laws and
legal structure is made for social welfare and this also helps the government of the country in
fulfilling the goal of better legal facilities. Law is considered as an important part for
managing country. The legal structure of legal system is consisted of different principles and
these law works in an long period of time without the requirement of any changes. In an legal
system they are further divided in three laws that are legislative, executive and judiciary,
these laws works independently with interfering in each other work(Yeoh, 2019). These laws
have developed with the support of doctrine separation of work. These laws are also imposed
to control both criminal offence and civil offence which can harm the legal system of society
in future. In these laws behavioural patterns and ethical patterns which an individual follows
have been analysed as it impacts in an environment. There are different laws which are
different from and allocated with the activities which can harm or impact an society
negatively.
The legal system of United Kingdom has been formed in an effective manner to allow justice
to the society and also gives them right. In this country law is been made by passing a
legislation with an proper formulation of legal system so that the laws can be designed in an
appropriate form. There are many common laws which are imposed by government for
creating a diversity under legal system. In UK, they do not follow any written constitution but
is divided in four different segments that are statute law, work of authority, convention and
common law. In these four segment statutes law is considered as important and passed by the
parliament. In this parliament decides all law structure and system authorities(Borgogno, and
Colangelo, 2020). In UK some of the principles are developed by judges and collectively these
decision forms an common law. These above three laws jurisdictions are developed their own
laws and lastly in work of authority they do not have any binding force in the constitution of
UK.
Clearly explain with the use of example the following as means of classification of laws
in the English legal system.
Civil law
Civil laws are the rules and regulatory law which protect the right of an individual. It also
gives the justice to the individual which is harmed by the society. This laws also gives legal
remedies in order to resolve the conflicts in society as well as in organisation. This law
mainly covers the issue of property, family, torts and contracts(Gramitto Ricci, and Sautter,
2022). There are many ways in these laws which can deal with general clauses and can make
a positive change in an organisation as this law focus on the requirement and issues of the
employee and fulfil that in an effective manner in order to make the organisation better and it
also gives job satisfaction to the employees. This also resolves the issues based on any

organisational conflict and due to this law each employee get the right to speak for
themselves and stand forward if they are feeling any kind of problem in an organisation.
Example: Any malpractice in an organisation is also termed as civil law. In an small
organisation of UK starts selling expiry date products to their customers and sue to which
customers started getting infection(Nersessian, 2018). Then customer had sued that company
and make complaint against civil law for malpractice in the organisation which is considered
wrong and also reduces the goodwill and market place of a company in an industry.
Criminal law
This is a law in which the policies and rules act upon the conducted crimes in society and also
in an organisation which an employee face. This has differentiated the punishment and
penalty according to the crime placed in an society. This act gives right and justice and also
imposes safety for imposing strict punishment for the offence. Crime is also known as
omission which can even violate the law of the country(Schuster, Mitchell, and Brown, 2019).
Criminal laws and their punishment are differenced and varies with countries. In an criminal
law either the crime has occurred or done purposely. If any crime is done purposely then it is
totally against with the laws. This law is considered as an important part of English Legal
system. The criminal offense involves sexual assault, murder, theft and extortion.
Example: Money theft is also considered as an criminal offence one company in UK has an
unofficial working culture in an environment and the employees had good relations with their
seniors and managers. One employee of an organisation started blackmailing the manager
and each moths take a good personal amount from him. This is also considering as a criminal
law and that employee will get under criminal act and also needs to fill the penalty.
Explain the role of the following courts in the English legal system
High court: High court is third highest court in United Kingdom. High court deals with civil
appeals and various cases which is cannot be justifies in lower courts. The cases in this court
are transferred from lower court. High court guides the lower court about the functions and
responsibilities which is been used in adjusting various cases(Duménil, and Lévy, 2019). Lower
court records all statements and judgements in order help in better decision making. High
court has the power to reject the judgement made by the lower court and can give the justified
and new judgement by reviewing the case again and not only believing the lower court. The
court never get biased in decision making and this makes better and maintains legal system in
UK.
Supreme court: This court protect the rights of an individual and also gives them justice.
This also helps the society to protect its constituent. This court has an important role as it is
known as the highest and last court which can provide justice and right to an individual or
society so this court is considered as important in the constitution of UK. This court also
helps in protecting the civil rights and liberties by striking down the law which can harm or
violate the constitution. This court is collectively thirty judges, one is the chief justice and the
rest of the others are thirty judges(Greene,and O'Brien, 2019). This court also focuses on
managing the principles of common laws in order to make the justice statement not biases
and in an effective form. Each case is been recorded in this court which has been transferred
from high court and lower court. The laws which are made by supreme court can also be

stopped by government if anything or society violates or harm the justice principles and
natural laws.
PART 2
Explain case laws as source of laws
Case law is an important source of law which can be used in many and in an effective form.
This law mainly focuses on rare cases but therefore later it forms an important space to
consider for protecting the rights and justice in UK(Burke, and Cowling, 2020). Source of law
always creates an landmark and it is also developed by formulating the situation and in order
to solve the issue within legal system. These kinds of cases also develop the reports along
with the references for the use in future. This law mainly helps in solving the cases which are
not able to solve in normal legislation. This law is a crucial part in making rules, laws and
legal system in UK and it also has been derived from the basic principles of common law.
This law identifies and analyses the issues which can be presented in court to get justice.
Explain the process of legislation
Legislation is the law which is formed in the parliament and it is also known by its two names
that are act of parliament and statutory law. It helps in forming the new legislation of the
country and also amends the existing one. In the process of legislation there are various steps
which are involved it starts with introducing the bill after that it is been accepted or rejected
by the member involved in a committee(Hansen, Rutt, and Acheampong, 2018). After that bill is
transferred to either house or senate that if the members want to pass the bill or not. If
majority agrees with passing the bill then it get passed after the president approval and it take
the time of around 10 days after completing 10 days the law come under legislation process.
Provide the meaning and examples of delegated legislation
This is a legislation which distributes the existing powers to the sub authorities in order to
forming an law in an most effective and efficient form. In this legislation the powers are
divided according to the delegacy of the authority and this legislation also made wisely so
that they can give right and justice after an proper procedure of checking evidence(Frankot,
2020). This can be more relevant with an example as in an country one officer who makes the
laws has distributed or delegated their authorities and the rights to their sun authorities or
subordinators.
PART 3
Employment law
Employment law is made in order to satisfy the employee mentally as it deals with the issues
an employee is facing in an organisation it can be either discrimination, sexual assault and
infringement of rights. The law which are imposed in order to in order to look after the issues
of employees are equality act which allows equal rights to each employee of the organisation
and also under employment act which allows mental peace to the employees and gives them
job satisfaction and also creates an better working environment for them(Aagaard, Aagaard,
and Harrison, 2019). The issues can also be related to salary or any kind of mental torture
which an employee is facing in an organisation. This law gives justice to each employee
working in business.
