Labour law
Labour law includes the laws that apply when being contracted by an employer. The employer has a number of rights, as well as the employee. You can call upon your legal expenses insurance when you think that your employer mistreats you.
You could take legal action against your employer in case you were fired without cause, or when an employer suddenly cuts down your working hours. The legal costs of a trial and the costs of legal aid are being insured by your legal expenses insurance. Make sure to check with your legal expenses insurer, whether labour law is included in the insurance package.
