Child and Adolescent Labour (Prohibition and Regulation) Act, 1986 and Child and Adolescent Labour (Prohibition and Regulation) Rules, 1988
The Essence
the genesis
There was no procedure laid down in any law for deciding in which employments, occupations or processes the employment of children should be banned. There was also no law to regulate the working conditions of children in most of the employments where they were not prohibited from working or were working under exploitative conditions. Hence, the Child and Adolescent Labour (Prohibition and Regulation) Act
A child is meant to learn, not earn

Let’s face it! HR Policies need to be designed keeping the industry sector, business requirement and the needs of the workforce in mind. A one size fits all approach does not work when it comes to writing a number of policies.
On the other hand, labour laws require that companies adhere to various statutory compliances, but are difficult for the lay person to comprehend. Why stress over them. Leave the heavy lifting to us!
