Preferred term
employment law
Definition
- Although laws regulating the actions of organizations predate the 20th century, regulation governing the relationship between employer and employee grew dramatically over the last 50 years. Unlike most previous legislation that addressed industry-specific problems, modern employment law affects all industries and all but the smallest employers.
