In Art Business News, I have found an article that can be linked to Unit 8: employment law. It's about two tools that help business owners understand the employment law.
In Washington DC, U.S. Secretary of labor, Elaine L. Chao has announced two new tools to help employers understand how to handle the employment laws and regulations. These two new tools are the FirstStep Employment Law Advisor and The Employment Law Guide. The first is a comprehensive program to help the regulated community understand these difficult rules and regulations. This website takes the employers through a series of questions which help determine the laws that apply to their businesses and organisations. Secondly, we have the employment law guide. It describes the department's laws and regulations in simple language for employers needing an introduction to benefits, safety, health and nondiscrimination politics for their business. It's also available on the internet.
As part of this new effort, the Secretary created an Office of Compliance Assistance Policy in the office of the Assistant Secretary for policy. This office is headed by the Senior Executive Service Professional Barbara Bingham.
What's my own opinion about this? I think it's a good solution. The managers of businesses have probably had an education in economics but mostly, this is not enough. You must know that these rules change on a regular base. If they don't have a system that makes it all clear to them, they probably get lost in finding the rules that fit their enterprise. This solution will have as result that they will make less mistakes concerning these laws.
