Trade unions fear that the four Labour Codes will dilute workers’ rights, but union leaders also note that many deadlines for the implementation of the codes have been missed by the Centre in the past.

New Delhi: India’s Central Trade Unions (CTUs) say they will continue opposing the codification of labour legislations, fearing it will dilute the “hard-won” rights of the workers, even as media reports speculate the implementation of the four Labour Codes from next month. 

That the central government plans to implement the new labour laws from July 1 has been the story carried by major publications in the past few days. Trade unions, on the other hand, highlight that deadlines have been missed in the past, owing to multiple challenges. 

Touted as “reforms” by the Narendra Modi-led central government, the three Labour Codes – Industrial Relations Code, Code on Social Security, and Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code – were passed in the Parliament in September 2020 without a proper debate. The other one, Code on Wages, was passed in 2019.  

Together, they are set to replace and subsume 29 Central labour enactments.

Since labour falls under the concurrent list of the Constitution, it is required for both the central and the state governments to form rules for the implementation of a central legislation. As per information released by the Union Labour Ministry in March this year, 27, 23, 21 and 18 States/Union Territories have pre-published the draft rules under the Wage Code, Social Security Code, Industrial Relations Code, and the Occupational Safety Code, respectively.

All the reports pertaining to the implementation of Labour Codes by July are nothing but “speculations”, Sukumar Damle of AITUC told NewsClick on Monday. “There is nothing official as yet,” he added.

Damle highlighted that such reports have surfaced in media in the past as well. According to him, since 2020, many deadlines set by the Centre itself have been missed. 

“The trade unions have opposed the Labour Codes from the very start. We will continue to do so even if they are implemented,” he said, adding this is the stand of all the 10 CTUs that have jointly staged multiple demonstrations and general strikes over the Labour Codes in the recent past.
