Understanding India's Labor Laws: What Every Employer and Employee Should Know

What are the main rules for labor law in India?

---

In India, labor laws cover a wide range of issues related to employment, including wages, working hours, leave policies, workplace safety, and more. Some key aspects of labor laws in India include the Industrial Disputes Act, the Employees' Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, the Payment of Wages Act, and the Factories Act. These laws aim to protect the rights of workers and ensure fair treatment in the workplace. It is essential for both employers and employees to be familiar with these laws to maintain a harmonious and legally compliant work environment.

Dear Ms. Supriya, please specify what you meant by "main rules for labor law in India"? Labor or employment-related laws are numerous, and only a few apply to or cover industrial undertakings (commonly known as factories), while others apply to commercial establishments. For example, the Factories Act and Rules vis-a-vis the Shops and Establishment Act and Rules.

In respect of this group of laws, certain "exemptions" can be sought and secured for the period specified by the authorities. Additionally, there is a new law that applies to and covers every workplace and employer in India, namely the "Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition & Redressal) Act 2013."
