Sign Up NOW for Labor Studies at City College! Labor Studies 102:  Labor Law Monday evenings 6:55-10:00 in L110; CRN: 96047 Instructor: Dovie King, Ochoa Legal Group What is labor law? Come learn about the legal framework and doctrines governing labor-management relations and the workplace rights of minorities and other individual employees. While "Labor Law" generally refers to the National Labor Relations Act or equivalent public sector laws, this class also covers laws that are sometimes referred to as "employment" laws. They include the various discrimination, retaliation, wage, and safety laws that may be enforced by individuals or unions. These laws offer additional ways to facilitate organizing and contract campaigns, as well as grievance handling. Designed to provide practical legal background for the study and practice of labor relations, this course focuses on real problems brought to the class by the students, and it aims to stimulate ways of using the law to build your local unions, as well as to support broader efforts such as organizing temporary workers, coalition work with human rights and environmental groups, and political lobbying campaigns. This course is intended for anyone interested in Labor Law including students who are employees and/or union members, and individuals who are in leadership roles or are preparing for leadership positions in the workplace or in unions.
