labor laws and rights
Having a boss at the work place is something common for most of the people. Most men have a boss at home too, but that is another issue. Beeing an employee has some advantages and some disadvantages. The advantages are that overtime work is optional and you don’t have any headache if the end of the month is comming and the company doesn’t have enaugh turnover in order to pay the wages and many other issues. But not having enaugh money might mean that the employee doesn’t get his salary in time. This is only one example of how a business owner can break labor laws.
Other common rights that are often not respected by bosses are: employee discrimination or termination based on age, national origin, sex, pregnancy, religion, sexual orientation or marital status, disability, taking a medical leave or a leave to care for a sick parent or child, complaints about wage violations (delayed payment, nonpayment of minimum wage, overtime compensation), complaints about illegal practices or workplace safety. In California none of the above can be a legal reason for terminating an employee and cannot be taken into consideration as selection criteria. There are many other legal rights that an employee has, but it is to no use if people don’t know their rights.
