Bare Act

The Industrial Disputes (Bihar Amendment) Act, 2018

This law amends the Industrial Disputes Act of 1947 specifically for the state of Bihar. Its main purpose is to change how the law defines a "workman." It expands the definition to include anyone doing manual, skilled, technical, clerical, or supervisory work, or promoting sales for hire, regardless of whether their employment terms are written or spoken. This change ensures that a wider range of employees are covered by the dispute resolution process, allowing them to seek legal protection if they face unfair treatment or dismissal in their jobs.
