Hi Umesh Kumar,

I am a junior in my department and I have limited knowledge in HR. I kindly request all of you to provide me with the names of the following books:
1. Factory Act
2. Shop Act
3. Labour Law
4. Payment of Wages Act
5. Gratuity Act
6. Bonus Act

Thank you.

Hi,

There are no books on the topics you mentioned but "Bare acts" which can be downloaded from various sites such as Vakilno1.com - India Law, Online Legal Advice, Legal Documents, Legal News, and also from CITEHR. There are certain books that provide a summarized knowledge of various labor laws. I know where these books can be purchased in Mumbai.

Agree with shwethanair, there aren't any such specific books. Whatever she has mentioned above, please refer to it or search in citehr. I'm sure you'll get loads of resources. However, I should thank you for being open to learn; much appreciated.

Every state has different laws relating to labor, factories, wages, etc. So, please buy the latest bare Acts, which you can get at any local book depot. These bare Acts cost around Rs 50 or less, I guess.

Dear Umesh,

You can buy a book on Labour Legislation which contains labour laws in a single book. Check with publishers such as Asia Law House and Gogia Law House.

Labour Acts are central government legislations, and each state passes its rules. Hence, it is always advisable to buy books with state rules and short notes.
