India has a complex and diverse labour market, with various sectors and industries employing millions of workers. To protect the rights and interests of these workers, the central government has enacted several labour laws that regulate the terms and conditions of employment, wages, social security, industrial relations, dispute resolution, and other aspects of labour.
