Welcome
to the Labor Policy section
of the HELP Committee website. The
HELP Committee jurisdiction
encompasses most federal labor and
employment laws, including those
that regulate wages and hours of
employment, enforce mining and workplace health
and safety, combat employment-based
discrimination, and regulate
union / management relations. The
Committee also monitors workforce
and employment trends, and assists
in tailoring federal law and
regulation to changing patterns in
the workplace. This website contains
information on Committee hearings
and markups, and provides access to
Committee hearing
testimony. It also contains links to
all federal agencies that are
charged with enforcing federal labor
and employment laws. We hope you
find this website helpful.
