Course information provided by the 2025-2026 Catalog.

To be an effective manager and employee, you need to know the legal rules governing the workplace-which is employment law. The course begins with the classification of workers as employees, independent contractors, partners, or interns-a topic much in the news these days as firms outsource important parts of their operations. It then covers job security and the uniquely American concept of employment at will, which includes the protections whistleblowers have in the workplace. Privacy rights and antidiscrimination regulations figure prominently in employment law. The course covers intellectual property rights in the workplace and noncompetition agreements and other restrictions when the job ends.
