Explanation

กฎหมาย means “law,” and แรงงาน relates to labor or the workforce, so กฎหมายแรงงาน means laws concerning work and employment. It is somewhat formal, but common in news, HR, legal advice, and workplace contexts. When counting a specific law or statute, the classifier ฉบับ can be used.

Usage

Use it when talking about HR, employment contracts, minimum wage, overtime, leave, dismissal, workers’ rights, and workplace legal issues.

Caution

แรงงาน alone means labor, workers, or workforce, not labor law. For internal company rules, กฎของบริษัท or ข้อบังคับของบริษัท is usually more natural than กฎหมายแรงงาน.
