Labor and Employment Law Program
Advancing the World of Work Through Law
The Labor and Employment Law Program provides essential resources for attorneys, judges, legislators, policy makers, labor officials, management officials and neutrals on workplace law and its impact on the needs of workers, employers, and unions both in the U.S. and abroad. Through workshops, conferences, policy forums and seminars, the program will discuss topics in the following areas:
- changing legal issues and legislation affecting the workplace
- analyze court and administrative agency decisions
- rulings and guidelines
- wages paid and social security
- equal employment and collective bargaining
- health care and pensions
The program will also provide opportunities to present/share views on the impact of proposed legislation to legislators and decision makers. Cornell University faculty will offer multi-disciplinary perspectives to labor and employment law practitioners by including historical, sociological, economic, and political perspectives on the workplace and the law.
