COVID-19 AND LABOUR LAW COMPLIANCE – VERSION 2.0
In view of the tremendous success of the
‘60 Minutes Compliance’ webinar held on
April 9, 2020 and requests pouring in from several industry quarters and
professionals to organise a second session in order to address few more
pertinent questions pertaining to Labour Law Compliances vis-à-vis COVID-19, Aparajitha Corporate Services Private
Limited, the country’s No. 1 company for Compliance, today organised Version
2.0 of the ‘60 Minutes Compliance’ webinar to discuss the impact on Labour Law
Compliances due to the Coronavirus lockdown. These sessions are aimed towards
benefitting the companies and their Human Resource fraternity by providing several
guidelines in order to help them survive through the COVID-19 crisis.
Speaking
on the occasion, Mr. Nagaraj Krishnan,
Managing Director, Aparajitha Corporate Services Private Limited said, “We are extremely delighted with the
overwhelming response we received for the webinar on the impact of COVID-19 on
Labour Law Compliances. The ‘60 Minutes Compliance’ webinars series are in
line with Aparajitha’s vision for continuous endeavor in bringing knowledge expertise
on Regulatory compliance to organisations, given the fact that the co-existence
of Labour and Capital is of paramount importance at all times, and more so when
posed with a global challenge such as COVID-19.
Version 2.0 of the webinar held
today was more of a response session to hundreds of queries which came in from
the organisations, which could not be addressed in the earlier webinar due to
