About this episode
India’s long awaited labour reforms have finally come into effect, five years after Parliament passed the four consolidated labour codes. These new codes aim to streamline compliance for employers while expanding formal protections for workers including gig and platform workers, fixed term employees, and those in the unorganised sector.
In today's episode, The Indian Express' Aanchal Magazine breaks down for us what these changes mean for India’s workforce and for businesses, and why their rollout has drawn both praise and protest.
