The correct answer is A. The Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020 incorporated various provisions of Central Labour Acts such as the Factories Act, 1948 and Plantations Labour Act, 1951.
– The Government of India consolidated 29 Central Labour Laws into four Labour Codes: the Code on Wages, 2019; the Industrial Relations Code, 2020; the Code on Social Security, 2020; and the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020.
– The Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020 specifically covers the aspects of safety, health, and working conditions for workers, integrating provisions from acts like the Factories Act, Plantations Labour Act, Mines Act, Building and Other Construction Workers (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Act, etc.
The purpose of these codes is to simplify, rationalize, and amalgamate the existing complex labour laws into a more coherent and effective framework, applicable to both organized and unorganized sectors.
