WV- Where can I find all laws posted? West Virginia (Employment & Labor Law)

Thu, 25 Jan 2007 09:10:00 GMT

Can anyone direct me to a site where I can read, in detail, about all West Virginia labor laws? The state site only posts a few laws and they are mostly related to posting labor laws and minimum wage. Thanks.

  • West Virginia's labor law code

    http://www.legis.state.wv.us/WVCODE/21/masterfrmFrm.htm

    It is not as easy to browse as those of many other states.

  • I wouldn't count on finding much. WV doesn't have all that many employment-related laws of their own (more than some, less than many). At least for wage and hour issues, they defer on most issues to the FLSA (federal).

    I wasn't able to find this site through Google, but thanks for the idea.
