labor code
Workplace law compilation
A labor code is a comprehensive body of laws governing employment relationships—covering wages, working hours, workplace safety, hiring and firing, unions, and workers' rights.
Most countries consolidate these regulations into a single statute: The new amendments to the labor code raised the minimum wage.
In the U.S., labor law is scattered across multiple federal and state statutes rather than unified in one code.
