Exploring the difference between labor law that pertains to collective bargaining, organized labor and unions and employment law that pertains to the employer-employee relationship, specific to the individual, including minimum wage and calculation methodology, leaves of absence, hours of work, vacation entitlements, notice periods for termination, health and safety, discrimination and harassment.
Nevertheless, even though we explore key differences as between the legal concepts of employment law and labor law, one also needs to recognize that there are some very important interconnections between these two theoretical areas of law. This is particularly true for labor law, given that unless there are clear legislative (statutes and regulations) and case law for the non-application of particular aspects of employment law, it oftentimes necessary to bring in employment law, and more particularly employment standards legislation and their associated regulations, which all too frequently is overlooked by those who have become overly focused upon the practice and implementation of labor law.
