Top 100 Employment Law Blogs . . . plus 10
Posted by Molly DiBianca On November 4, 2009 In: Resources
The Top 100 Employment Law Blogs is back and updated for 2009. Ok, so it’s the Top 110 this year. There were just too many great blogs that 100 wouldn’t do the trick. The list, of course, is totally subjective and based only on my personal opinion. One criteria that I did use this year, though, was a most-recent-post criteria. Blogs that hadn’t posted more recently than September weren’t eligible for the list. If you write a blog that addresses with employment-law issues and I’ve missed it, please let us know by posting a comment.

[Updated Nov. 13] Alterted by their comments and duly impressed with their sites, I'm going to add two more to the list--really, what difference will 2 more make, we've already got 110.

Many thanks, Molly. Your blog should, of course, be listed near the top.

John's comment is unintentionally hilarious -- "near the top?". Shouldn't she be able to put her own blog "at" the top? :)
But I concur wholeheartedly in John's sentiments. Many thanks for compiling the list and including the Connecticut law blog on it.

Thanks for mentioning the Texas Employment Law Update. I like the annual listing so I can update my Reader with any blogs I might have missed. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for including World of Work Molly! This list is a great resource.

I will add another note of thanks. This is an excellent list - not (just) because you got the Trade Secret / Noncompete Blog on there (though, I do appreciate it!) - but because you clearly did a lot of work and a thorough and comprehensive review of the current blogs and pulled together an accurate list of the true top ones. Thanks for making it easy for the rest of us!

You forgot the fabulous labourlawstudents.org, run by students at Osgoode Hall Law School in Toronto, Canada.

Canadian HR Reporter, Canada's national journal of human resources management, has a number of employment-related blogs.
Of interest to this forum is the weekly employment law blog written by Jeffrey R. Smith, editor of Canadian Employment Law Today. You can access it on www.hrreporter.com.

Great site you have! Check out my new blog: www.socialnetworkinglawblog.com. I cover various legal issues relating to social media and Web 2.0, but primary focus is/will be implications in employment context (i.e., using social networks in recruiting, disciplining employees for online activity, drafting social media policies, etc.). Thanks!

Hi Molly. I just happened upon your list and wanted to thank you for including my blog on it. The time it must have taken you to put this together! But, thank you -- as I've learned of some blogs I hadn't known about before!

Great list but you there are some dead links. Someone should have double checked to make sure that they were all viable first. Otherwise an excellent resource for any HR or Risk Management professional!

2nd year in a row for me! Thanks much all! I'm honored.

Brian:
You sure are right--there were about 6 links that had typos in them and, therefore, did not take you to those sites. And you're also right, someone (namely, me), should have checked each of the 110 links again after the post went up to make sure there weren't any errors. I apologize and I'll be sure that next year's list is triple checked for accuracy (hopefully, though, the 2d and 3d checks might be done by someone else--the first time is plenty of work as it is). Thanks for stopping by and for letting me know about the dead links. My apologies to those blogs whose links were wrong--I promise, it's no reflection on the greatness of any of them, just an inadvertent (read: lazy) error on my part.
Thanks for stopping by!
Best,
Molly
