Dear Sachin,
Below are the summarised versions of the acts you asked about:
1. Factories Act, 1948:

2. Maternity Benefits Act:
- This Act provides for paid maternity leave of 26 weeks to women employees. This is applicable to all establishments employing 10 or more persons. It also mandates benefits like nursing breaks until the child attains the age of 15 months, and protection from dismissal during absence due to pregnancy.

5. Payment of Bonus Act:
- This Act applies to every factory and establishment employing 20 or more persons. It mandates an annual bonus to all employees earning up to INR 21,000 monthly, based on the employer's profitability.
6. Equal Remuneration Act:
- This Act aims to prevent gender discrimination in wages. It mandates equal pay for equal work for both men and women.
7. Contract Labour Act:
- The Act regulates the employment of contract labour in certain establishments and provides for the conditions of work and welfare measures for contract labour.
Remember, these are summarised versions of the Acts. For a detailed understanding, I would recommend referring to the full versions of these acts.

Dear Mr. Ware,
Please ensure that to obtain abstracts of key labor laws, you first decide which government body is appropriate for the enforcement of various applicable labor laws at your establishment. Then, review the applicable rules of these enactments to create abstracts for display at your unit's premises.
Thank you.
