Salary, PF, Working Hours: List of Key Changes to Come Into Effect Under New Labour Laws From July 1
New Delhi: Under new labour laws, the regulations related to working hours of employees, provident fund and salary structures will see drastic changes. The Central government is planning to implement a series of new labour laws from July 1, 2022. The new rules, once implemented, will bring massive changes to all industries and sectors in India.
While reports indicate that the Centre is all set to implement these rules from next month, no official notification, however, has been issued yet. The reforms will tackle areas such as wages, social security (pension, gratuity), labour welfare, health, safety and working conditions (including that of women).
Significantly, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Odisha, Arunachal Pradesh, Haryana, Jharkhand, Punjab, Manipur, Bihar, Himachal Pradesh and UT of Jammu and Kashmir are the states that have framed rules under new labour laws.
As per reports, 23 states have framed state labour codes and rules based on the new Code on Wages, 2019, and the Industrial Relations Code, 2020, the Code on Social Security, 2020, and the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020, all of which have been passed by the Parliament.
