Rules for four new Codes to be in place before Apr 1: Labour secy

The Centre is gearing up to notify the rules under the four labour Codes before April 1, 2026, and has suggested the states to follow a similar timeline, so that the new labour regulations could be implemented before the beginning of the next financial year, labour secretary Vandana Gurnani said in an interview to Business Standard.

“There is a possibility that new labour Codes will kick in even before that. That is our goal,” Gurnani said, when asked whether the rules will be in place by April 1 next year.
