In today's fast-paced society, work has become an integral part of our lives, consuming a significant portion of our time and energy. While the concept of work-life balance has gained widespread recognition in the media and everyday conversations, the reality is that people are working longer hours than ever before. However, it is important to recognize that the workplace is not just a means to an end, but also a platform for personal growth, skill development, and the formation of lasting friendships. As a result, individuals are increasingly interested in understanding their rights and protections in the workplace.
Issues such as equal pay, discrimination, discharge/dismissal, and redundancy are prevalent in the media, and there is a growing demand for knowledge about the law governing the employment relationship. This Very Short Introduction aims to provide an overview of the main types of employment rights and labor laws found in many countries. It will unpick and evaluate some of the assumptions underpinning contemporary attitudes towards these rights and laws, in order to assess whether they are warranted. Throughout, it will also consider the economic, political, sociological, and social justifications for employment rights and laws.
