The councils are tasked with improving industrial relations, boosting productivity, and managing welfare measures. Employers are required to consult these councils on management matters and provide necessary information. The legislation aims to foster better cooperation between management and labor, ensuring smoother operations and shared responsibilities within large undertakings, with penalties for non-compliance.
