India's new labour codes aim to improve workplace safety, wages, and compliance through a digital framework. The government is focused on simplifying labour laws and enhancing social security.
The new labour codes will replace 29 existing laws and introduce a streamlined digital compliance framework. Labour Secretary Vandana Gurnani emphasized the importance of collaboration among government, industry, and workers for successful implementation. The rules under the four labour codes were officially notified on May 9, marking a significant step towards the new labour framework.
