All United States employees are protected by federal labor laws. The people who work as a independent contractors. Independent contractors operate under their own time schedule, work environment, and pay. On the other hand, salaried workers operate under labor regulations depending on their job type. Salaried employees must work for more than 40 hours a week while hourly workers may work for less time.

Two universal requirements that must be met regardless is the federal minimum wage requirement and the Equal Employment Opportunity Act (commonly applied to the business setting and referred to as Equal Opportunity Employers); these requirements can largely depend on variety of factors. Very few businesses are subject to the Family Medical Leave Act, so this act is not required for all the businesses. But there are some advantages and disadvantages to the laws, which are listed below.


People think that some laws are set in stone, but this is not always true. For instance, reasonable accommodation with regards to work breaks is provided by the Occupational Safety and Health Association. A 15-minutes break for every four hours of work is standard but law. You should study the regulation as many labor laws are vague. Federal jurisdiction controls the labor laws, and these laws are there to protect workers. These laws protect employees from the potential exploitation of employers. Employee-employer relationships are provided with a better framework by the federal laws, which results in better working relationships and environments.

There are some regulations which control the pattern of labor workplace, and you must understand them well. The right of employees to form unions is protected by the Wagner Act, and it also helps in controlling union actions in the workplace. The federally-protected statuses like religion, sex, age, handicap, or ethnicity are regulated by the Equal Employment Opportunity Act, which helps in decreasing discrimination. Safety precautions in the work place are monitored and regulated by the OSHA. It also has control over the number of exits a company has and also regarding the protective gear of the workers. Child labor laws are also there to keep children safe from dangerous jobs and prevent them from getting abused. All these laws are for the protection and proper functioning of labors work at the workplace and you must be aware of these general laws. This valuable information will provide important insight in understanding labor law rules and best practices of employers.
