Most workers only discover what their employer was allowed to do after it has already been done to them.
This book closes that gap - before the meeting, before the termination, before the deadline that ends your case. Wage theft is the largest theft category in the United States. Most victims never file a claim. Not because they lack a case - because nobody explained what a case looks like, how to build one, or how quickly the legal window closes while you are still deciding what to do. Wrongful termination happens to people who were told their firing was legal. Discrimination goes undocumented because workers do not know what documentation means in court. Retaliation continues because the people experiencing it do not recognize it by its legal name. Know Your Rights: Workplace and Employment Laws is a complete operational guide to every stage of the employment relationship - from your first paycheck to your last day and everything an employer can and cannot do in between. What this book covers: - The difference between employee and independent contractor status - and why misclassification is one of the most expensive mistakes workers never see coming - Minimum wage, overtime, wage theft, and equal pay - what the law requires and what employers routinely avoid paying - The employer tactics that cost workers their cases before any lawyer ever gets involved - What at-will employment actually means - and the specific exceptions that make termination wrongful - Wrongful termination, layoffs, the WARN Act, and your rights on the final day of employment - Workplace discrimination across every protected category: race, sex, age, disability, pregnancy, and religion - Sexual harassment, hostile work environments, and the retaliation that follows when workers report them - FMLA, medical leave, sick leave, PTO, and what employers are legally required to honor - OSHA and workplace safety - what you can report without losing your job - The deadlines chapter: the filing windows that permanently close your legal options if you miss them - Remote work rights, gig economy protections, and collective bargaining - Scripts, templates, documentation protocols, and a quick survival guide for when something goes wrong right now This book does not assume your employer is acting in good faith. It documents what the law actually requires - and gives you the evidence framework, complaint procedures, and negotiation tools to use that law before the window closes. Awareness without procedure is just frustration. This book gives you both. Part of the Know Your Rights - USA series, covering the legal frameworks, enforcement realities, and practical tools that shape American life at its most consequential pressure points. If something already went wrong, start at Chapter 21. If you want to understand the full architecture before anything happens, start at the beginning.
