Labour laws are generally quite complex, but in this book the authors break down the concepts to precisely explain and project those laws with the help of case law and illustrations.

Salient features of key amendments in labour laws (pertaining to Apprentices Act, ESI Act, Maternity Benefit Act, Child and Adolescent Labour (Prohibition and Regulation) Act, 1986 and Employees' Compensation Act) have also been incorporated at appropriate places within the text.
