Employment law


Employment law is a law, which protects rights and interests of workers. Regulate rapport between employers and employees. Employment law appeared with industrialization, the biggest part of this law was formed in 20th century. If person is discriminated (for example of his race or sex) he has right to take his case to industrial tribunal. Employers and employees have a right of strike and boycott, but it is harmful for both sides, because companies and workers lost profit during that action. So it is used only in critical situations. Employment law guarantees a standard minimum salary and right to have holiday. Japan has fewer employment laws than in many Western countries. However workers in that county have biggest security of work, insurance and salaries than many employees in other countries.
