They aren't restored along with the seed.

What you can do is use a plugin (which already comes in Electrum) called LabelSync to send your (encrypted) labels to a server and get them back whenever you want.

Here is a quick tutorial for it: https://bitcoinelectrum.com/how-to-use-the-electrum-label-sync-plugin/

Alternatively if you have the old wallet file you can simply save that on to a usb drive via file > save and open it in the new pc via file > open.
