Summary of differences between federal and state regulations
Federal law generally does not regulate employment contracts between employers and employees with one exception: contracts that require the joining or refraining from joining of a labor union as a condition of employment. On the federal level, these contracts are governed by the National Labor Relations Act. States may have a corresponding provision and may also have additional provisions regarding employment contracts.
Nevada law contains a similar provision to federal regarding union membership. There are also additional provisions.
Union membership
An employer can not enter into an oral or written agreement requiring as a condition of employment that an employee or prospective employee become, remain, or refrain from becoming or remaining, a member of a labor union. §613.130
Breaking a contract
A person who willfully and maliciously breaks a contract of employment with reasonable belief that those actions will endanger human life or cause serious bodily injury or expose valuable property to destruction is in violation of law. §613.100
Waiver of rights
An employee can not be required to enter into an agreement to waive rights to unemployment benefits or to be required to pay any portion of the employer’s required contribution. §612.700
