Much awaited and yet to get implemented in Indian labour law
context are four new labour codes, which consolidate and amend several labour
laws that were in place for decades. The four codes are:
- Code
on Wages, 2019: This code combines four existing laws related to the
payment of wages and benefits to workers. It aims to provide a universal
minimum wage to all workers, including those in the unorganized sector.
The code also introduces a statutory concept of "floor wage"
that provides a benchmark minimum wage for all workers.
- Code
on Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions, 2020: This code
replaces 13 existing laws related to the working conditions of workers. It
aims to provide a safe and healthy work environment for all workers and
ensures that they are provided with basic amenities such as restrooms,
canteens, and first aid facilities. The code also covers aspects such as
working hours, leave, and overtime provisions.
- Code
on Industrial Relations, 2020: This code consolidates three existing laws
related to industrial disputes, trade unions, and conditions of
employment. It provides for the formation of a two-tier industrial dispute
resolution mechanism at the national and state level. The code also allows
employers to hire workers on fixed-term contracts and provides for the
recognition of trade unions at the workplace.
- Code
on Social Security, 2020: This code consolidates nine existing laws
related to social security, including the Employees' Provident Funds and
Miscellaneous Provisions Act, the Maternity Benefit Act, and the Payment
of Gratuity Act. It aims to provide social security benefits such as
health insurance, old-age pension, and disability benefits to all workers,
including those in the unorganized sector.
Overall, these four labour codes aim to simplify and
streamline India's labour laws and improve working conditions for workers.
However, their implementation has been met with some criticism and opposition
from trade unions, who argue that the codes do not adequately protect the
rights of workers and may lead to the erosion of existing benefits and
protections.
In conclusion, the four labour codes represent a significant
change in India's labour laws and have the potential to improve the lives of
millions of workers. However, their success will depend on their effective
implementation and enforcement, and their ability to balance the interests of
workers and employers.
Namo…..
