Federal laws require employers to act fairly and protect the health of employees. Review this chart for an overview of the most common laws. The Department of Labor provides more in-depth explanations of labor laws.

Utah is an employment-at-will state, which means that without a written employee contract, employees can be terminated for any reason at any time, provided that the reason is not discriminatory and that the employer is not retaliating against the employee for a rightful action.
