Introduction
Employment law pertains to the employer / employee relationship and is governed by statutes, case law, and regulations at both the federal and the state level. Its scope also includes a wide range of workplace issues such as discrimination, wrongful termination, unemployment compensation, family / medical leave and occupational safety.
Labor law covers the negotiation and collective bargaining process between employers and unionized employees. The National Labor Relations Board mediates disputes with these parties.
