Employment Law is a set of laws that deal with the rights of employees and the responsibilities of employers. Employment law covers a wide range of issues from pension plans and retirement, to occupational safety, to discrimination in the workplace.
The most significant difference between Employment Law and Labour Law is in the specific way employment rights are dealt with and enforced procedurally. Simply put, Employment Law deals with the rights of individuals, whereas Labour Law deals with groups of employees and the collective, through forums such as trade unions.
It is made up of laws 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.
