8 Areas of Labor Laws

Workers' Compensation Insurance

Every employer must obtain Workers' Compensation Insurance which covers employees for ALL work-related injuries, illnesses and death.  

Workplace Safety

Employers have a legal obligation to provide and maintain a safe and healthful workplace. Written safety plans are required for every employer.

Payroll & Payroll Taxes

Employers must pay and report employee wages, withhold payroll taxes and contribute employer's share of payroll taxes to the IRS and EDD.  

Wages & Hours

Employees must be properly paid for all time worked and given required breaks.  Employers must know about overtime, rest and meal breaks, exempt vs. non-exempt, minimum wage etc.

Personal Leave of Absences

Employers are required to provide certain paid and unpaid personal leaves of absences, including 5 days/40 hours of PAID sick leave.

Benefits

Very few benefits-like vacation pay, holiday pay, health insurance-are required for micro-employers.  There are some things every employer still needs to do.

Civil Rights

Employees and job applicants are protected from harassment, discrimination and retaliation based on protected characteristics like race, religion, sexual orientation and national origin. Exactly what an employer needs to do depends upon how many employees they have.

Industry Specific & Miscellaneous

Be sure you know any regulations, required permits, licenses, trainings and more that apply to your specific industry or business.
