The Factories (Haryana Amendment) Act, 2018

Labour20189 sections

This Haryana law amends the central Factories Act of 1948 to update worker thresholds for various regulations, raising the number of employees required to trigger specific rules. It permits women to work night shifts in factories with adequate safety measures. The Act also changes prosecution procedures, requiring prior sanction for court action, and introduces a system where minor violations can be settled by paying a fine instead of facing legal proceedings. This makes compliance easier for factory owners while maintaining safety standards.
