AIOE congratulates the Ministry of Labour & Employment for making the four Labour Codes effective. A major step that brings simplified and predictable compliance for employers, while ensuring universalisation of minimum wages, wider social security coverage, and new opportunities for women through permitted night-time work with safeguards. A balanced and forward-looking reform for industry and workers alike :Jasbir Singh, President AIOE #shramevjayete Ministry of Labour and Employment, GOI FICCI Amber Enterprises India Limited

Four Labour Codes notified by the Government are indeed pathbreaking. These codes are forward looking reflecting the aspirations of Viksit Bharat, benefitting existing workforce, women, youth, gig and platform workers. Codes will go a long way in instilling investor confidence further in the country by creating more employment opportunities for our young, growing population. Also, Codes provide a robust framework for workplace safety: FICCI Vice President Mr Vijay Sankar #ShramevJayate Ministry of Labour and Employment, GOI

Yesterday, India consolidated 29 labour laws into four new Labour Codes — a significant step toward clarity for both employers and workers. The difference will be felt on the ground. Gig workers now have a path to social security, migrant labourers get clearer protections, and every employee receives an appointment letter. That last one sounds small, but try proving employment without documentation. The deeper signal here is a simple one — economic growth and worker protection aren’t trade-offs. They’re linked. For a region in transition, this is what progress should look like: building a more sustainable economy while ensuring the people who build it aren’t left behind. Thanks to the Ministry of Labour and Employment, GOI and FICCI for the collaborative effort. Progress happens when government, industry, and workers align. India’s workforce is its greatest asset. These codes recognise that. #India #LabourCodes #JustTransition #FutureOfWork #Sustainability #LabourLawIndia

Speaking at the DST-FICCI Workshop on National S&T Survey 2024-25 in Chennai, Mr. Bhupesh Nagarajan, Co-Chairman, FICCI Tamil Nadu State Council and CMD, Indira Group of Companies, said, “Initiatives like this workshop on the National Survey on S&T is extremely important, not only for the research community but also for the general public.  It helps us understand how much India is investing in research through DST and highlights the significance of industry participation.  I strongly encourage industry members to actively take part in this survey." r. Arvind Kumar, Advisor and Head of the National Science, Technology & Management Information System (NSTMIS) at DST, in his address, urged industrial groups to actively contribute data, emphasizing that higher response rates and greater data accuracy are crucial for the survey’s effectiveness. “While India’s Gross Expenditure on R&D investment in absolute terms has risen consistently—more than doubling over the years—the investment of industry in the R&D has historically remained low. Many industries are investing but not reporting their contributions to the government. This share must rise from the current 40% toward the global benchmark of 70%. In advanced economies, the corporate sector contributes nearly 70–75% of gross R&D expenditures, whereas in India it accounts for only about 36.5%. India’s overall R&D investment stands at around 0.64% of GDP. Bridging this gap is essential for achieving the nation’s innovation ambitions,” said Dr. Kumar.

With the four Labour Codes now effective, FICCI appreciates this significant step in modernising India’s labour ecosystem. The reforms offer clarity and predictability for employers, and bring major worker gains: equal pay, portability of social security, protections for gig/platform workers and expanded inclusion for women and youth across sectors: Mr Anant Goenka, President-Elect, FICCI. #ShramevJayate Ministry of Labour and Employment, GOI

FICCI welcomes the Labour Codes becoming effective today. The Codes enhance industry competitiveness through single registration, reduced overlap, and streamlined processes, while ensuring minimum wages for all, improved OSH standards, annual health check-ups, maternity and social-security protections, and safer night-shift opportunities for women. A transformative step for Viksit Bharat: FICCI DG Ms @jvij1967. #ShramevJayate Ministry of Labour and Employment, GOI
