About EmployeeIssues.com
Welcome!
Welcome to EmployeeIssues.com, a free resource
for general information about employee rights (and related
employee issues) in the United States. EmployeeIssues.com helps
employees and employers to help themselves, to better understand
employee rights. EmployeeIssues.com has
been serving employees and employers since 2003.
Although EmployeeIssues.com content
is targeted primarily to employees, it helps both employers
and employees to better understand employee rights on both
sides of the fence.
Who We Are
We are an independent, USA-based Web team, with a passion
for helping workers to help themselves regarding their employee
rights. To put that another way, we used to be employees
among the many with unanswered questions about their rights!
We now provide basic answers to those questions, through
general information about employee rights. We also own and
operate TechnicalJobSearch.com,
a free Web portal for techies and other job seekers.
J. Steven, our lead writer and editor, earned a degree in
business administration, which included business-law courses.
For over 22 years, he then worked in supervisory and managerial
roles for major high-tech corporations in Northern California's Silicon
Valley.
Based on his career credentials along with his knack for
writing, for nine years J. Steven also moonlighted as a professional
freelance writer of employee rights and other employment
matters for a Top-10 Web site, which is owned by and shares
online content with the New York Times. His writings
are still among the most popular across the Web for employment
matters.
In fact, certain Web circles referred to J. Steven as "The
Job Seekers' Advocate". Although he now prefers a more-modest
profile as a semi-anonymous author of employment matters,
he's still pursuing his passion for helping workers to discover
their rights.
Research Sources
Research sources for EmployeeIssues.com content
include, but are not limited to, the following.
Information vs. Legal Advice
EmployeeIssues.com provides only general
information about employee rights. It does not provide legal
advice, nor is the general information it provides a substitute
for legal advice. (Read our Disclaimer for
more information.) For legal advice about employee rights
or other employment-related matters, consult an
employment
lawyer. Employment
lawyers often take winnable cases on a contingency basis.
Employee rights laws and regulations vary
by municipality and state,
number in the thousands, and might provide better protection
than the Federal equivalents.
They are also interpreted on a case-by-case basis by the
courts, enforcing government
agencies and
lawyers.
Consequently, no Web site can provide one-on-one, employee-rights
legal advice that specifically fits your situation. Only
a
lawyer who
knows employee rights laws that are specific to the state
or municipality in which you work, can legitimately and accurately
provide legal advice that specifically fits your situation.
