We're taking a break from coronavirus. Daniel asked people on twitter for a short, non-covid-19 employment law question. He picked seven replies and answered them, including:-

• What's the law about taking time off for doctor, dentist and other appointments?
• Would an employer be liable for an employee’s racist remark on Facebook?
• How long must employers delay a disciplinary hearing if a trade union representative is unavailable?
• Can you compel someone as a witness in an employment tribunal?
