The employer is mandated to follow and comply with the applicable laws for the time being
in force; when the Code comes into force, the employer shall ensure that the practices,
policies and compliances are aligned to the provisions of the Code and Rules. Any
contravention to the provisions or non-compliance shall constitute an offense under the
Code and will attract applicable fine or imprisonment or both.
Hence, the employer has to diligently examine the current practices and compliance level
of the establishment, do the required restructuring to keep in pace with the compliance
under the Code.
