Labor and employment law is composed of the state and federal laws, regulations, administrative rulings, and judicial precedents which govern the area of employment. This legal area includes employment contracts and at-will employment, minimum wage, safety and health in the workplace, various forms of discrimination, wrongful termination, sexual harassment, and more. Any issue connected with employer-employee relations may fall under the category of labor and employment law.
