Employees should realize that many federal laws and rights are divided between

the Department of Labor and the Equal Employment Opportunity

Commission. For example, the U.S. Department of Labor is involved in

employment issues such as:

• Occupational safety and health


• Family medical leave
• Employee retirement income
• Immigration reform and control
• Employee benefits security
• Labor management reporting and disclosure
• Fair labor standards
• The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
handles issues involving:
• Religion

• Age

• Race

• Gender

• Disability

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration, under direction of the

United States Department of Labor, passed workers' rights legislation in 1970

that guarantees employees a safe workplace. The Occupational Safety and Health

Act of 1970, more commonly known as OSHA, requires employers to "provide a

workplace that is free of serious recognized hazards and in compliance with OSHA

standards."
