Business Law
Konrad Lee, JD
Nearly every interaction between an organization and its employees is shaped by employment law. This resource helps students understand the U.S. legal environment governing the employment relationship, from employment-at-will and wrongful discharge to Title VII, the Americans with Disabilities Act, and protections against gender, age, religious, racial, and national origin discrimination. Students also explore employer responsibilities in hiring, retaining, and terminating employees, along with employee benefits, workplace privacy, and labor law. Throughout, they learn to apply legal principles to realistic workplace scenarios, recommend strategies that prevent discrimination and limit employer risk, and manage compliance with workplace regulations.
Course Objective
This resource offers an overview of business law, covering topics such as the American legal system, torts, contract law, business organizations, employment law, and international law for business students and others interested in business administration.
