Introduction

The business-focused, business-friendly Modi government has pushed through a number of business and labour reforms in the past 3-4 years, which has seen a significant upward movement in India's ranking in the World Bank Doing Business Report on a number of key indicators.

However, at the local level, the daily practice of HR can still represent a major challenge --- a new and very different legal framework, with hugely diverse cultural approaches to managing and developing employees.

This one day seminar will provide an overview of the major items of employment legislation. By linking them to the day-to-day practical handling of Human Resources, participants will develop and confidence and competence in dealing with the issues.

(Face-to-face training with safe distancing and precautionary measures undertaken at our hotel venues which are certified SG Clean. We will continue to adopt a small class size for all our courses)
