Description
This course is an introduction to laws affecting the workplace. Casebook readings are used to consider how federal and state labor and employment laws delineate the rights of workers, unions, and employers. Case studies are used to analyze the legal, political, public policy, and practical implications of decisions of federal courts and administrative agencies that implement these laws. After first focusing on the National Labor Relations Act, as amended, the course examines current issues in employment law. The latter include unjust dismissal in nonunion environments, workplace safety, whistle blowing, sexual harassment, and discrimination based on race, sex, and age.
