Introduction
Running a business is one of the quintessential American Dreams and Maryland provides an ideal place to make this dream come true. Located in the heart of the Mid-Atlantic, Maryland provides its citizens with a diverse array of historical, cultural and geographic offerings. This also means almost any small business idea has the opportunity to thrive in the State of Maryland.
But with such great opportunity comes uncertainty. Starting and operating a business, especially a small one, is risky. Obtaining start-up capital, meeting payroll, taking on business competitors and ensuring the consistent delivery of a quality product or service is no easy task. But one of the biggest challenges small business owners often overlook is the regulatory environment. This is particularly true concerning employee rights.
The purpose of this ebook is to give you an overview of the legal framework of Maryland employment law and provide an understanding of its significance. We’ll begin by describing the legal landscape you will find yourself in as a small business owner in Maryland. Then follow that with what you can do to minimize the risks of an employee from taking legal action for alleged workplace discrimination. Finally, we’ll end this ebook with the importance of seeking legal advice before a problem arises, and how that can be one of the best investments you will ever make for your business.
