INDUSTRY & LABOUR
Labour laws form the backbone of any modern economy, ensuring a harmonious relationship between employers and employees.
At Law & Honour, we recognize the critical importance of labour laws in promoting fair practices, protecting rights, and fostering a productive workforce. Here’s an overview of the key aspects of labour law and how our firm can assist you.
What Are Labour Laws?
Labour laws are regulations designed to balance the power dynamics between employers and employees. These laws govern aspects such as:
- Employment contracts
- Wages and benefits
- Working conditions
- Occupational safety
- Rights of unions and collective bargaining
- Dispute resolution
India’s labour law framework is among the most comprehensive in the world, covering a range of statutes such as the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, the Minimum Wages Act, 1948, and the Employees’ Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952.
