question 2 of 10: what do employee compensation laws do?

a) guarantee income in case of injury
b) determine minimum wages, the 40 - hour work week, and overtime pay
c) provide transportation to workers without their own car

Explanation:

To determine the correct answer, we analyze each option:

• Option a: Guaranteeing income in case of injury is related to workers' compensation, not general employee compensation laws about wages and work hours.
• Option b: Employee compensation laws (like the Fair Labor Standards Act in the US) do determine minimum wages, the standard 40 - hour work week, and overtime pay requirements.
• Option c: Providing transportation to workers is not a function of employee compensation laws.

Answer:

b) Determine minimum wages, the 40 - hour work week, and overtime pay
