This book addresses employment or labour laws for Human Resource Managers. The aim is to explore the labour laws related to employee, employers, labour, union, welfare, and law for women employees at workplace for an organisation. The book consists of a compilation of seven chapters and an extended list of reference cases on employment laws. The book is based on a combination of employment law and litigation cases in India. The first chapter of the book discusses the introduction to employment laws where constitution law and employment. The second chapter discusses the Laws on labour welfare and their working conditions, The Factories Act, 1948, Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, The Building and Other Constructions Workers’ (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Act, 1996, Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace (Prevention, Prohibition and Redressal) Act, 2013. The third chapter discusses the Law of Industrial Relations in India, Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, The Plantation Labour Act, 1951, The Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946, Indian Trade Union Act, 1926. The fourth chapter discusses the Law of Wages in India, Payment of Wages Act, 1936, Minimum Wages Act, 1948, Payment of Bonus Act, 1965, Equal Remuneration Act, 1976, Workman’s Compensation Act, 1923.

The sixth chapter discusses the New Labor Reform Code - 2020, Labour Reforms undertaken since 2014, Labour Codes and Freedom from the Web of Legislation, Right to Minimum Wages for everyone, Labour Code (Wage Code) - 2014 to 2019: Workers will get benefited, Social Security Code, 2020, Right of security to workers in all situations, OSH Code (Occupational, Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code) – 2020, Women empowerment through the Labour Codes, Industrial Relations (IR) Code, 2020, and Benefits of Codification. And the seventh chapter discusses the Legal Cases on Employment Laws with a list of 373 Legal Cases for Reference. I wrote this book especially for Human Resource Managers which will certainly help them to understand the various legal aspects of employee, employer, and employment law to reduce the litigation from employees and enhance the productivity and efficiency of performance of employees in the organisations. This book and the cases discussed can be very useful for advocates and lawyers handling labour/service matters.
