Description

• The Law Relating to The Code on Wages, 2019 delivers a meticulous, section-wise commentary enriched with judicial pronouncements, constitutional insights, and practical perspectives.
• The Code on Wages, 2019 represents a defining moment in India’s labour law landscape, bringing together four foundational statutes – the Payment of Wages Act, 1936; Minimum Wages Act, 1948; Payment of Bonus Act, 1965; and Equal Remuneration Act, 1976 into a unified, modern framework.
• Designed to promote livelihood security, productive employment, and equitable growth, the Code reshapes wage regulation for the nation’s workforce.
• Extending minimum wage protection to nearly all employees, including those in supervisory and managerial roles, the Code introduces a pioneering statutory floor wage that no State may breach.
• It widens the scope of “wage” to cover key allowances and strengthens social justice by expanding the claim limitation period from six months to three years and enforcing strict gender-neutrality across recruitment and employment conditions.
• Comprehensive and authoritative, this volume is an essential resource for policymakers, legal professionals, trade unions, HR leaders, and anyone seeking to navigate India’s transformed wage ecosystem.
