There are ways to learn about employment law, but nobody can make you understand them. If you want a good general website, and are in the US, go to www.usa.gov and search "employment law". If you are looking for a specific state, add your state to the search. Every state has different and widely varying employment laws.

If you are looking for direction on a specific situation, re-post your question with the situation and where you live and someone may be able to help you.

One really good place to start if you want to understand what applies to yourself is to check the terms of your own employment contract. Then you - unlike many other workers - will know where you stand. If there is anything in your contract which seems unfair, go to your HR department for an explanation, or to the Cirizen's Advice Bureau ( UK) or a lawyer.
There will be some very basic books on employment rights in Public Libraries, but the whole field on this subject is huge.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish and learn? There are lots of laws requiring employment?

Go onto the Department of Labor website - they have laws and legislature right on there. You can also go onto your state's website for legislature and codes.

Is there some particular issue that you are asking about? And it would help if you say where you are located. Otherwise, your question is way too broad to answer.

This is an incredibly vast area of knowledge and people go to university to gain a qualification in it. There are manuals available and if I remember correctly one of them is called Tolleys.

I don't believe anyone can MAKE you understand anything.

No-one can make you understand.
Employment law covers a vast array of different subjects and the total amount of rules and regulations would take a small forest to print out.

What aspects in particular are you looking at?
