MoLE Services in
India

Strategic workforce management, securely navigating the Ministry of Labour & Employment (MoLE) spanning EPFO, ESIC, and comprehensive Labour Law compliance.

Discuss HR Compliance

Human capital is the core engine of your Indian expansion. The Ministry of Labour & Employment (MoLE), alongside State labour departments, governs all employment activities, including contract regulations, mandatory social security, and workplace safety. We ensure your entity meets all statutory requirements to build a highly compliant and protected team.

Role of MoLE & State Authorities

Labour in India falls under the 'Concurrent List', meaning both Central (MoLE) and State governments enforce laws. MoLE manages massive national social security ecosystems like EPFO, while State departments regulate local working hours and conditions.

The New Labour Codes: MoLE has consolidated 29 central labour laws into 4 overarching codes (Wages, Industrial Relations, Social Security, and Occupational Safety), modernizing the compliance landscape for foreign corporations.
