About

Labor law is the academic field that investigates the legal framework governing the relationships among employees, employers, and labor organizations. It examines the body of statutes, regulations, and judicial decisions that establish rights and obligations concerning employment conditions, wages, hours, health and safety, discrimination, and collective bargaining, often aiming to address the historical inequality of bargaining power between workers and employers.
