Employment laws that apply to your business
Just because your business is small, it is not safe from employment practices lawsuits. Although the very smallest employers may be exempt from certain federal employment laws, they may still be vulnerable to an employment action. Former and current employees can allege anything at any time and are not limited to filing a claim under a federal law. In fact, many states have expanded employment laws, putting employers at further risk. The links below offer some general guidelines to the employment laws and how they may affect your business. Of course, laws differ from state to state, so it's best to get local legal advice on how employment practices laws apply to you.
