Summary
The purpose of Use Protection is to make sure you understand enough about workplace practices and employment law so that you do not get derailed from the career track you should be on. Many of the rules that govern work in any organization, whether it is a large corporation or a two-man office are not obvious. Some may be counterintuitive. If you do not know what the rules are, they can tangle you in a knot.
You may think that the company has a human resources person who will keep you out of trouble. This is a dangerous misconception. These HR reps are not your advocates. They work for the company not for you.They appear to be acting in your interest but they are not your advocates. You must be your own advocate. You must protect yourself.
