Best Answer

Labor laws originated a long time ago in England because of the policy of the laissez-faire. These laws were quite simple compared to our complicated regulations currently, but these dealt with the same basic principles that our laws do now-a-days. These laws dealt with working conditions, safety, and child labor.
