The U.S. Department of Labor's site is the place to go to learn more about wage-and-hour issues (overtime, compliance with the Fair Labor Standards Act), child labor laws, employment rights for veterans and service members (under USERRA), and compliance with the Family and Medical Leave Act, among other issues.
The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission is where you'll find what you need to know about all aspects of discrimination law, including equal pay, race or gender discrimination, religious rights in the workplace, sexual harassment, and the Americans with Disabilities Act.
The U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration is the source for all kinds of information regarding workplace safety—not just the rules you have to follow, but tools and techniques you can use to promote safety and wellness. (If you're looking for information on a specific topic—like, say, ergonomics or asbestos—go to osha.gov/SLTC/index.html.)
