Dr Lisa Rodgers

I joined the University of Leicester as a lecturer in law in 2013 prior to which I taught law at Birmingham City University. I teach undergraduate and postgraduate Labour Law and I am Deputy Director of the DL LLM Employment Law course.

My research is in international and European labour law and the conjunction between labour law and legal theory. I have a particular interest in the application of vulnerability theory to labour law and I am currently investigating the interaction between health and safety and labour law in the coronavirus pandemic and I am also writing a book on Labour Law and Social Justice.
