Employment law is part of what we refer to as civil rather than criminal law. Criminal law covers issues between the state and a wrong doer whereas civil law deals with issues between two parties and in this case it is between the employer and the employee. The employment relationship is governed by a variety of different statutes and acts that are regarded as employment law. Employment law gets updated every year from minor to major changes.Three main variables affecting how law shapes practice were identified in the research. First, the nature of laws varies. Some laws, for example on the National Minimum Wage (NMW) (UK9904196F), have universal coverage, whereas others (eg on unfair dismissal) come into play only when a firm takes a specific action.
