This paper discusses selected Indian labor legislations, such as the Indian Employment of Standing Orders Act, 1946; Indian Factories Act, 1948; Indian Dock Labour Act, 1934; Employment and Workers’ Compensation Act, 1981; Equal Remuneration Act, 1976; Trade Unions Act, 2001; The Apprentice Act, 1961 (amended in 2014), and their relevance to the information technology (IT) industry. The paper examines how these statutes manage employment policies and wage-related issues. It further highlights the significance of these laws to the IT sector in achieving fair labor practices, promoting integrity , and protecting employees from any unfair employment practices produce a skilled, ethical, and compliant IT workforce for the country’s development.
India’s IT sector has a well deserved place in the global markets and is a key driver of the domestic economy. Nevertheless, this dynamic industry works in a rather complicated legal and regulatory context, and compliance with the basic labour laws constitutes both legal and ethical necessity.
