LLR or CLR would be a good option for you. Also, understand the crux of the major Acts and State Rules. Try to read settled cases under various Acts; this will help you interpret the laws effectively.
All the best.

In order to become an IR manager or IR professional, you are supposed to face the public at large. You need to upgrade your IR, LL, and HRM knowledge thoroughly. Third, you have to work in an IR profile. Keep updating regarding statutory compliances. Lastly, it is important to have the will to do it.

In addition to the information given by our members, I would like to add some more. Normally, IR requires a lot of patience and a high tolerance level to handle any situation. One must be well aware of the statutory compliances and other provisions available in the laws enacted by the state and central governments.
It is crucial to have the ability to convince others in case of any disputes arising from any issue. Those who can take care of the welfare of the workers and employees of the organization will have the complete support of the workers/employees.
Having a good understanding of the Factories Act, Industrial Dispute Act, Trade Union Act, Minimum Wages Act, Payment of Wages Act, Gratuity Act, Bonus Act, Contract Labour Act, etc., is essential. This knowledge enables one to easily resolve any subject-related issues that may arise.
