WORKSHOP : WAGE RESTRUCTURING & COST IMPACT UNDER NEW LABOUR CODES
WORKSHOP – WAGE RESTRUCTURING & COST IMPACT UNDER NEW LABOUR CODES
Understand the Real Cost Impact of India’s New Labour Codes Before They Impact Your Payroll Budget
Learn how the 50% Wage Rule affects salary structures, PF contributions, gratuity liabilities, social security costs, workforce budgets, and overall employee cost under India’s New Labour Codes.
Overview
The New Labour Codes are not just a compliance change—they represent one of the biggest workforce cost transformation initiatives for Indian employers in recent years.
The revised Definition of Wages and the 50% Wage Rule can significantly increase:
- Provident Fund contributions
- Gratuity liabilities
- Leave encashment provisions
- Social security obligations
- Long-term employee costs
- Workforce budgeting requirements
Many organizations have still not fully assessed the financial impact of these changes.
As a result, HR, Compensation & Benefits, Payroll, Finance, and Compliance professionals are struggling to answer critical business questions:
- What will be the actual increase in workforce cost?
- How much additional PF liability will be created?
- What is the impact on gratuity provisioning?
- How should salary structures be redesigned?
- How can organizations manage increased statutory costs?
- What happens to existing CTC structures?
- How will Fixed-Term Employees affect workforce budgets?
- What financial provisions should organizations create before implementation?
This highly practical workshop focuses on both Wage Restructuring and Cost Impact Assessment, helping professionals evaluate financial exposure, redesign compensation structures, and develop implementation-ready action plans.
Participants will work through real calculations, cost simulations, restructuring exercises, and workforce cost modelling scenarios.
