Taking State Governments into Confidence for Amending Labour Laws

Amendment proposed in labour laws goes through the process of Tripartite Consultation where the representatives from Central Trade Unions, Employers' Associations and State Governments are invited to express their views and suggestions on the proposed changes.

The approach of the Government has been to reform the labour laws by easing the complexity of compliance of labour laws by the employers through simplified procedures without compromising on the interest of the workers.

This was stated by Shri Bandaru Dattatreya, the Minister of State(IC) for Labour and Employment in response to a written question in Rajya Sabha today.
