A. Unemployment Compensation
If you have not quit your job but rather had your job terminated through no fault of yours, you have the right to worker’s compensation assuming you have worked for a certain period of time prior to your unemployment. If you are let go from your employment, but not when you quit, you are entitled to unemployment benefits. These benefits accrue only if you have worked a certain number of months, and the compensation is limited to six months.

B. Worker’s Compensation
Every business with employees must have some form of workers' compensation insurance to cover injured employees. An injured employee, regardless of who is at fault, gets benefit through a workers' compensation claim in exchange for not suing the employer for the injuries arising under the claim. Keep in mind, that even if you file a workers' compensation claim and have in fact foregone the right to sue your employer, you can still sue, through a liability insurance claim, a third party if your injuries are caused by someone other than your employer, or by a defective product used on the job. Worker’s compensation law includes wage loss benefits, medical expenses, social security disability and vocational rehabilitation and retraining.

C. Collective Bargaining
Unions and other groups enter into agreements with employers and other organizations and need to have a lawyer pour over such agreements.

D. Workplace Safety
OSHA has set federally mandated rules and regulations that employers have to follow in the workplace and violations of such regulations are severally reproved.
