Few interests are more important to an employee than his or her job. This course examines the legal issues that arise at various stages of the employment relationship. The course begins by considering the history of employment law and the current economic, demographic, and technological developments that are changing the way work is organized and creating new challenges for the law. Following this introduction, students systematically proceed through the issues that arise in hiring; regulating the terms and conditions of employment during the employment relationship; and discharge and termination.
