Dear Experts, can you please help me with the labor laws applicable to an MNC (support services) operating in Bengaluru? I'm finding that payment of wages, minimum wages, gratuity, maternity, and bonus are relevant to us. Am I correct? Also, suggest anything else you feel is applicable.
If any of the above is correct, please let me know how and what registers or filings need to be taken care of. Kindly don't give links to search; I did all those but am unable to come to a clear conclusion due to tough terminology and generalized terms. Help me with short answers.
Thanks in advance!

In addition, the Shop & Establishment Act, PF Act (for those drawing <Rs. 15,000/- per month), ESI Act (for those drawing <Rs. 21,000/-) would apply. There are many other legislations like the Equal Remuneration Act, Inter-state Migrant Workers Act, Labour Welfare Fund Act, and Contract Labour Act if you have outsourced security/housekeeping or other activities. Considering the complexities involved, you may engage a consultant to handle all these compliances.
