Labor and Family Law for the Common Man

An ordinary person is both a family-oriented individual and an employee.

He wakes up in the morning, gets ready for work, kisses the wife and kids, and travels to work. He spends time at the job site from 9 am to 5 pm, comes home to the wife and kids, and gets ready for the next day. As mundane as it sounds, this is how the day of the common man is spent, and this daily routine is covered by both labor laws and family laws.

The basic concentration of family law is the protection of the family. This includes the establishment of the family home, the provision for support, and the exercise of parental authority. It is the basic social and political unit of all, and the family law in Ontario aims to preserve its integrity. As such, the state has an interest in its proper protection and maintenance.

The basic concentration of labour law is the nurturing of the business of the employer as well as the strengthening of the employer-employee relationship. Both management and the workers are to work together in an environment of harmony and peace in order that all concerned can benefit from the fruits of commerce.
