Given the importance of labor law in regulating labor-employer relations and its determinant role in the economic development of manufacturing firms, this study was done aiming at analyzing the labor law of the Islamic Republic of Iran from the viewpoint of employers from the perspective of human resources management. This research is an applied one in terms of objectives, and the grounded theory was applied for data analysis. Statistical population includes employers of industrial companies located in Tehran, among whom 8 employrs were selected through Snowball sampling method and theoretical saturation rule, and in-depth interview was utilized as collection instrument. The results of data analysis showed that for employers the most important weakness of the law is the lack of transparency and different inferences from the text of the law and the limited powers of the employer in the labor law. According to the employers, the current law may not be effective in arbitration between the worker and employer, and this widens the gap between the actual human resource conditions and the content of the law.
