Hello Ram,

Compliance with state labour laws in both Gujarat and Haryana involves adhering to several key regulations. Here are some of the primary laws you need to consider:

1. The Factories Act, 1948: This act is applicable to any factory engaged in any industry where ten or more workers are working on any day of the preceding twelve months, and in any part of which a manufacturing process is being carried on with the aid of power, or is ordinarily so carried on.

2. The Shops and Establishment Act: This act applies to all shops and commercial establishments operating within the state. It regulates the working hours, rest intervals, overtime, holidays, terms of service, and other work conditions of people employed in shop and commercial establishments.

3. The Minimum Wages Act, 1948: This act provides for fixing minimum rates of wages in certain employments, which must be paid to the employees.

4. The Payment of Wages Act, 1936: This act regulates the payment of wages to certain classes of employed persons. It ensures that employees receive wages on time and without any unauthorized deductions.

5. The Employees' State Insurance Act, 1948: This act is designed to provide certain benefits to employees in case of sickness, maternity, and employment injury and to make provision for certain other matters in relation thereto.

6. The Employees' Provident Funds and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1952: This act provides for the institution of provident funds, pension fund, and deposit-linked insurance fund for employees in factories and other establishments.

Please note that this is not an exhaustive list, and the specific laws and regulations may vary based on the nature of the work, the industry, and other factors. I would recommend consulting with a legal expert or a HR professional familiar with the laws of these states for a comprehensive understanding.

Best of luck with your training and knowledge sharing initiative!

Best regards.
