Maharshi University of Information Technology, NOIDA, U.P. & National Labour Law Association, New Delhi in Collaboration with Indian Industrial Relations Association, New Delhi (IIRA); Social Security Association of India, New Delhi (SSAI); International Society for Labour and Social Security Law, (ISLSSL), is organising 3rd Maharishi Mahesh Yogi International Conference On Comparative Labour Laws in South-Asia: Labour and Management Perspective on 28 – 29 August 2023.

About the Conference

The year 2020 was a defining period for countries, particularly, in South Asia.  The COVID-19 pandemic caused not only a large number of deaths and displacements but also hastened the process towards digital-centred business models.  The rapid growth of the platform economy, MSMEs, and consumers’ preference for online shopping, etc. have created conditions that are entirely different from the conditions for which the prevailing labour laws were enacted.   Additionally, the havoc caused by turbulence, both natural (such as flood and drought) and manmade (such as political, trade and religious) has collectively caused humanitarian crises.  These developments are having a detrimental effect on the workers, their employability, and their rights at work.  In this background, it is imperative for the national governments in the sub-region to understand the ongoing trends in the world of work, examine the working of the social dialogue institutions, and amend the existing labour/employment laws so that the same are in tune with the ongoing changes.  No doubt, many of the countries in the Sub-region have already taken measures with a view to overcoming the crisis.
