About the Workshop
India’s labour law framework is undergoing its most significant reform in decades with the consolidation of 29 Central Labour Laws into four Labour Codes. These reforms are expected to transform employment relationships, HR practices, labour law compliance, industrial relations, workplace safety, social security, and dispute resolution.
Whether you are a law student, practising lawyer, HR professional, compliance officer, in-house counsel, or employer, understanding the practical implications of the Labour Codes has become increasingly important.
This 2-Day Intensive Online Certificate Workshop is designed to provide participants with a practical understanding of the New Labour Codes through expert-led sessions, case studies, compliance exercises, drafting demonstrations, and live discussions.
