Employment Law Resource Center Offered by Lawyer Central

Lawyer Central is pleased to offer an employment law resource to employees and employers who are interested in learning about labor law, employee rights, and more. The Employment Law Resource Center features essential legal information pertaining to contract negotiation, workplace harassment, sexual harassment, employment discrimination, and unemployment benefits.

One of the three Employment Law subsites is dedicated to contract negotiation. Contract negotiation requires a knowledge and understanding of all contract terms and their implications. A breach of contract occurs when one party does not fulfill his/her/its obligations according to the agreement. A contract lawyer can aid in the drafting or negotiating of a contract, the contesting of a contract, and dealing with breach of contract. Lawyer Central provides answers to frequently asked contract negotiation questions and an overview of breach of contract, among other contract negotiation resources.  

On the sexual harassment page, site visitors can view a Lawyer Central legal video featuring employment lawyer Greg Noble. Noble provides the definition of sexual harassment in the workplace and explains that workplace sexual harassment can include unwanted looks, advances, and touching. It can also occur when an employer offers a benefit of employment in exchange for sexual favors. Also featured on the site are links to an overview of what constitutes sexual harassment, answers to frequently asked questions about sexual harassment, definitions of hostile work environment and quid pro quo harassment, facts about online sexual harassment, and more. A sexual harassment news center keeps site visitors informed about current sexual harassment cases and complaints across the country.

Unemployment and unemployment benefits are additional subjects covered in the Employment Law Resource Center. If an individual loses his/her job as a result of wrongful termination or resigns because of workplace harassment, employment discrimination, threats, or hazardous working conditions, the employee may qualify for an unemployment benefits claim. Information about the stages of an unemployment claim and a link to Department of Labor information on different types of unemployment insurance are available for those who want to continue their research on unemployment compensation benefits.
