Human resources laws are governed by legislation framed by the central government and each state accordingly. Therefore, the company's objectives and strategy must align with the employment laws. The human resources policies that organizations adopt affect the entire organization, and they must comply with legal requirements to protect employees and employers. It is crucial that companies comply with a variety of laws/ policies, as non-compliance can also result in stiff penalties and sometimes disciplinary actions. Legal-minded human resources departments can eliminate lawsuits, financial losses, and reputational damage, and add credibility to the decisions made by the department. To ensure that an organization and its employees follow the laws, human resources professionals should have a sound understanding of the available and applicable laws before creating their human resources policies for the organization.
