Compliance
Under Labour Laws
Statutory compliance under various labour laws has to be
ensured by establishments. It is not just limited to the
statutory deposits, returns and records to be maintained
by the employer under various labour laws, but also to represent
them in case of prosecution under various statutes. Hence,
it hardly needs to be emphasised that the labour related
laws cast an obligation on the employer for meticulous,
impeccable and timely compliances. In the event of violation
or delay in complying with the statutory requirements, the
consequences in terms of levy of damages, prosecution is
inevitable. Further, under most of the employment laws,
the top executives or the head of the institution/organisation,
as the case may be, is held liable and responsible and is
required to personally attend such matters before the competent
Authority or Court.
To facilitate day-to-day functioning, a Checklist of periodic
Returns and Informations to be filed, which could be effectively
followed to ensure compliance of various employment laws,
is given below.
