Labor Laws

Labor laws are regulations enacted by governments to govern the rights and obligations between employers and employees. These laws cover various aspects of the workplace, including wages, working hours, workplace safety, discrimination, and collective bargaining rights. Their primary purpose is to establish fair working conditions, protect workers’ rights, and ensure a balance of power in employer-employee relationships. Labor laws can vary widely by country and may also include specific statutes for different industries and occupations. They serve to promote fair treatment in the workplace, prevent exploitation, and contribute to overall economic stability and social justice.
