- STR’s Labor and Employment Standards Library (LESLi) contains laws and regulations for over 140 countries. We obtain these laws from our global network of contacts and resources including, labor ministries, international organizations, labor & employment law firms, and published law texts. While STR continually maintains as comprehensive a database as possible, the availability of law text can vary from country to country for a variety of reasons:
- >> Not all countries have legislated standards for all the categories or subcategories listed in this database.
- >> Some laws are not accessible from our usual sources, or are not made generally available.
- >> STR-RS and its clients conduct little to no work in the region.
