Indian labor law applies to Indian labor laws governing jobs. Traditionally, Indian policies at federal and state
level have tried to maintain a high level of protection for employees, but in fact that varies because of the form
of government and because labor is a subject in the Indian Constitution’s concurrent list.

Indian labor law is intimately linked to the Indian independence movement, and passive resistance movements
contribute to democracy. When India was under British Raj colonial rule, labor rights, trade unions, and
freedom of association were all revoked.

Indian labour law makes a distinction between people who work in “organised” sectors and people working
in “unorganized sectors” The laws list the ditors to which various labour rights apply. People who do not fall
within these sectors, the ordinary law of contract applies.

India’s labour laws underwent a major update in the Industrial Disputes Act Since then, an additional 45
national laws expand and another 200 state laws control the relationships between the worker and the company.
These laws mandate all aspects of employer-employee interaction, such as companies must keep six attendance
logs, 10 different accounts for overtime wages, and file five types of annual returns. The scope of labour laws
extend from regulating the height of urinals in workers’ washrooms to how often a workspace must be lime-
washed. Inspectors can examine working space anytime and declare fines for violation of any labour laws and
regulations.

The main responsibility of the labour law is to protect and safeguard the interests of workers in general and
those who constitute the poor, deprived and disadvantage sections of the society, in particular, with due regard
to creating a healthy work environment for higher production and productivity and to develop and coordinate
vocational skill training and employment services. Government’s attention is also focused on promotion
of welfare and providing social security to the labour force both in organized and unorganized sectors, in
tandem with the process of liberalization. These objectives are sought to be achieved through enactment and
implementation of various labour laws, which regulate the terms and conditions of service and employment of
workers. The State Governments are also competent to enact legislations, as labour is a subject in the concurrent
list under the Constitution of India.
