Proton-deuteron radiative capture and two- and three-body photodisintegration of {sup 3}He at low energy are described using realistic hadronic dynamics and including the Coulomb force. The sensitivity of the observables to the relativistic corrections of the one-nucleon electromagnetic current operator is studied. Significant effects of the relativistic spin-orbit charge are found for the vector-analyzing powers in the proton-deuteron radiative capture and for the beam-target parallel-antiparallel spin asymmetry in the three-body photodisintegration of {sup 3}He.
