Can employees who never got appointment letters demand one now? What new labour code says
Employers must now issue appointment letters in a standardized format to all staff, including those in informal sectors, detailing job roles, pay, and benefits before work commences. This new mandate aims to prevent disputes and enhance clarity on service conditions. Existing employees also have three months to receive these letters. Non-compliance incurs significant financial penalties, with states expected to align their rules soon.
