Abstract
The legal framework governing human resource development in organizations can be as important as other human resources laws, but it is seldom fully reviewed. Factors defining this framework are presented, followed by a model for identifying the domains of HRD for which laws and regulations can apply. Legal mandates for training, particularly in the areas of drugs, safety, and for certain occupational training, are examined. Rules governing apprenticeship programs are reviewed in this context, too. The features of intellectual property law, ethics, and privacy as they relate to the practice of human resource development are presented. Tax laws and regulations also impact human resource development; those rules are reviewed. Laws covering employee compensation are then examined. Finally, the regulations that govern training in employee benefits are discussed.
