Dear Robix,
Legislation for Human Resources is a very wide field and a very wide
term. As the name implies, is legislation that aims to handle the
relationships between employees and managers. It controls industrial
relations and the ways to settle industrial disputes. It also relates
to workplace safety, health regulations, hours/age limitations,
anti-discrimination laws, etc. It also regulates holidays, retirement,
etc.
In the United States, one can search in the
http://www.hrsa.gov/legislation/ U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services office of Legislation and find some useful information and
definitions. In many US States and also in other places, employers are
required to assure, that their employees are well-educated regarding
human resources legislation. An example of such an announcement, with
links to many human resources legislation in the US, could be found
under: http://www.shsu.edu/~hrd_www/empnotification.htm
You can see an example of the Canadian Human Resources code here:

Arbitration is one field within Human Resources legislation. It is
defined as "The process by which the parties to a dispute submit their
differences to the judgment of an impartial person or group appointed
by mutual consent or statutory provision." (see
http://www.dictionary.com/cgi-bin/dict.pl?term=arbitration&r=67)
