Federal employment law is spread across several statutes and agencies. The Department of Labor’s Wage and Hour Division enforces the Fair Labor Standards Act and the Family and Medical Leave Act; the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission enforces Title VII, the ADEA, the Equal Pay Act and Title I of the ADA; and the National Labor Relations Board administers the National Labor Relations Act.
