Employee rights may be categorized into three groups. Identify these categories and explain the rights within each

What will be an ideal response?

Answer: Summary of suggested answer -
• Statutory rights are those granted by law, such as Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, and are enforced by the EEOC, OSHA, and the NLRB. They cover all employees because they are contained within federal and state laws.
• Contractual rights are legally binding promises between two or more competent parties. If a promised duty is not carried out, the remedy may be legal. These come in employment contracts, employee handbooks - as implied contracts, union contracts, or implied contracts due to verbal promises.
• Other rights. These are a hodgepodge of rights normally recognized due to general practice but are limited and not guaranteed—right to ethical treatment, limited right to privacy, limited right to free speech are three key examples.
