About Employment Law
Employment law, also known as labor law, encompasses a set of legal rules and regulations that govern the relationships between employers, employees, and labor unions. It covers a wide range of issues related to the workplace, ensuring fair treatment, equal opportunities, and protection of rights for both employers and employees. Employment law addresses matters such as hiring, termination, wages, working conditions, workplace discrimination, harassment, employee benefits, and more.
Key aspects of employment law include:
-
