Labor cost can be fixed as well as variable. That labor which varies with changes in level of production then it is variable cost but if labor remain fixed then it is fixed cost.
If salary or wage of direct labor workforce is fixed irrespective of number of units manufactured by them then it is fixed cost other wise it is variable cost.

Depreciation.
When there will be change in fixed cost of business then at that time fixed cost will be relevant cost For Example if acquiring new machinery will reduce the amount of fixed expense in that case fixed cost is also relevant.
A fixed cost is one that will not change in total due to changes in production volume. An example would be factory rent. No matter how many widgets are produced in that factory, total rent is going to be the same. However, this means that the "per unit" cost changes based on how many widgets are produced. Variable costs, on the other hand, have a fixed per unit price, but total costs change in response to a change in volume. For example, let's say each widget requires $10 of direct labor to produce. Total variable costs is going to change based on how many widgets are produced.
Some general expenses are fixed, meaning that they are the same amount every month, but many are not. When the expense depends on usage, such as electricity, it will not be fixed, but will vary from month to month. An example of a fixed general expense would be a monthly retainer or fee paid to an accountant or lawyer. If the expense is the same amount every month, it is called a fixed cost.
B. Fixed Cost Union contracts may convert some variable costs into fixed costs. For example, a union contract may require severance pay. The firm may then be reluctant to layoff workers, and thus the labor cost become fixed and independent of the level of output.
