The National Law Review offers in-depth analysis of some of the major federal agencies/governing bodies that impact employer/employee relationships.  Analysis of the make-up of the National Labor Relation Board (NLRB) as well as analysis of the major decisions coming from that board are covered by the legal experts at the National Law Review.  Additionally, news and guidance, as well as staffing changes at the Department of Labor are also covered and analyzed, with legal experts providing insight into what has happened, and what might happen as a result.  Updates from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration, and their interpretations and guidelines on specific regulations related to worker safety, like the Silica standard, are also covered by NLR. 

Changes in employment law based on state developments, and issues that impact employer procedures in hiring and interviewing hiring, such as how ban the box legislation impacts hiring as well prohibitions against asking about previous salary levels, and employer reviews sites like Glassdoor are covered by the National Law Review.  As states and cities pass and amend employment-related legislation, the National Law Review carefully analyzes the implications of these changes to provide background information for companies seeking to stay compliant.

Some of the subjects covered on the site include employment and compensation agreements, employment violations in the workplace, non compete and arbitration agreements, the #MeToo Movement and sexual harassment, sex-discrimination cases, employee handbooks and policies, wellness programs, and how to properly train employees, especially given the number of employment-related lawsuits and EEOC enforcement actions. are addressed by the National Law Review
