About this ebook

Labour laws govern the conditions of work and labour. They play an important role in a number of ways: for preventing exploitation by management, preventing being forced to resign, providing work security, ensuring good working conditions and creating conditions for a happier workforce. There are a number of laws and protections granted in the Indian constitution and in different labour laws. As the workplace conditions evolve, the labour laws evolve with them. Hence it is useful to have an overview of the prevailing laws and protections related to labour in India.

In this book, we give an overview of the main labour laws in India, including the newer labour codes introduced in 2020 by the Indian government. We also focus on practical issues, such as what to do and whom to approach if one is unfairly dismissed from work or if one is sexually harassed at work. It is hoped that this book will help in spreading awareness about the prevailing labour laws among working people.
