The Difference Between Employment Law and Labor Law

Labor laws regulate the relationship between employers and labor unions, such as the AFL-CIO. Labor laws cover topics like the right to unionize and the negotiation and enforcement of collective bargaining agreements.

Employment laws regulate the relationship between an employer and individual employees and deal with issues like employment discrimination, harassment and complaints about compensation for work that was delivered.

Regardless of which laws apply to your situation, a small business plan from Legal Shield includes unlimited phone consultation with an experienced employment litigator to help you understand your rights, determine next steps and protect your business.

Diffuse Employment Disputes Before They Turn Into Lawsuits

Disputes with employees can be stressful and difficult for small businesses to deal with on their own. An experienced lawyer can help you navigate your way to a positive resolution as they understand the intricacies of common employee complaints.

Sexual harassment claims
Issues with wages and overtime
Poor performance or behavior
Workplace safety problems
Breach of employment contract
Paid leave and time off disagreements

As a LegalShield member, you don’t have to stress and guess about how to defend your business. Simply contact your lawyer and they can not only provide you with valuable legal advice, they can make phone calls and write letters to diffuse small employment disputes before they turn into huge headaches.
