This course focuses on major federal employment laws affecting individual employees excluding labor laws. Topics covered includes legal regulation of the hiring and firing processes, testing and privacy issues, wage and hour laws, laws affecting benefits, occupational safety and health, workers compensation, unemployment insurance and related topics. The course will briefly touch on employment discrimination issues as they affect the employment relationship but not in the depth nor the detail of the Employment Discrimination Law course.
