Labour laws are there to promote, empower and protect workers. These laws govern the relationship between employers and labour unions. Often, labour lawyers work on the behalf of labour unions or their members. However, they also represent employers too. Our well-read and experienced labour law lawyers in Chandigarh at B&B Associates LLP have been rendering their legal services with complete honesty and dedication.
Indian labour laws promote collective bargaining while governing worker organization and interaction with the employer. The role of a labour law lawyer includes maintaining a balance of power between the worker and the employer; preventing the employer from harassing the worker or dismissing them without any valid reason; and ensuring that workers are recognized as ‘equal’ partners in negotiations in connection to their duties and rights. Utilizing the legal expertise, our professional labour law lawyers in Chandigarh have been helping distressed workers as well as employers to get justice.
Labour laws or employment laws are the comprehensive body of various laws, administrative actions, policies, and precedents set by the courts and tribunals which govern and regulate the legal rights of the working sector, and the restrictions so imposed upon them and their organizations and association with various other organizations. Labour Laws deal and regulate various aspects of the working sector such as the working class, trade unions, employers and employees.
