Synopsis This book "Modern Industrial Relations and Labour Laws" covers a large number of enactments. Industrial law was no exception, the Indian government built on colonial labour institutions and regulations to fashion an industrial relation system that sought to control industrial conflict through a plethora of protective labour legislation, influenced by the strong ties between the major political parties and labour forged in the struggle of independence. These laws covered a wide range of aspects of workplace industrial relations; including detailed laws on safety and health, dismissals and layoffs and industrial disputes.

The role of the state has always been pervasive in Indian industrial relations. There have always been detailed laws on collective bargaining, dispute resolution, employee participation and employment security. There is also a court system, the independent  labour courts in India are the main mechanism for the implementation of labour law.

This book is useful for the Trade Union Leaders, Labour and Industrial relations officers, MBAs, CAs, and CSs, and many other Researchers.
