Employment & Labor Law

Employment & Labor Law

Almost all businesses use some sort of Employment Law. Employment law is the area of law that governs the employer-employee relationship. Therefore, if the business has more than one employee, then the business likely uses employment law. This area is made laws that include many different subjects with the common goal to protect workers' rights. For employees, these laws work to:

• Prevent discrimination
• Promote health and safety
• Establish a minimum required level for economic support
• Prevent work disruption due to disputes between labor and management.

Labour laws also seek to protect the rights of the employer. For instance, employers don’t have to hire someone they don’t feel is qualified, and it is within the employer’s rights to expect that employees show up on time and perform the duties for which they were hired. These laws ultimately protect the employer’s productivity and, therefore, profits, as well as the ability to remain competitive in the marketplace.
