Labour laws or employment laws is the comprehensive body of various laws, administrative actions and policies, and precedents set by the courts and tribunals which govern and regulate the legal rights of the working sector, and the restrictions so imposed upon them and their organizations and association with various other organizations. Labour Laws deal and regulate various aspects of the working sector such as the working class, trade unions, employers and employees.

Basic principles of Labour Laws

Generally, every labour law enacted covers three essentials which become the guiding force for the labour sector:

Industrial relations- certification and registration of unions, strong and effective labour‐management, collective bargaining and keeping a check on unfair labour practices at workplace;

Workplace health and safety- this is a basic need that every employer must provide to its employees a healthy and safe environment to work.

Employment standards- including general holidays, annual leave, working hours, unfair dismissals, minimum wage, layoff procedures, and severance pay.
