Diligently steering through complex regulations

The Employment and Labour Laws have been regulated extensively, aiming towards employee welfare in order to boost industry productivity.
 
Labour and employment law and practice have been evolving, aiming to keep pace with the influx of foreign investors, a foreign workforce, and attendant employment issues. Contractual issues governing relations between management and their workforce need careful consideration. As managers increasingly seek to reimburse their employees with a variety of benefits as well as provide incentives through employee stock option schemes, it is becoming increasingly important for corporates to adopt well-established and internationally accepted policies and procedures.
 
Implications of providing stock option schemes, rules regulating insider trading, issues of confidentiality, and protection of intellectual property must all be factored in when considering employment issues in India. Indian labour and tax laws also impose certain obligations on employers that must be considered and met.
