Building and Other Construction Workers (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Act 1996 with Rules [Bare Act with Section Notes] by Taxmann is a comprehensive statutory and compliance-oriented reference that captures India's construction labour law framework as it was applied in practice. The publication systematically explains the legal regime governing employment conditions, safety and health standards, welfare mechanisms, inspection powers, and penalties for building and construction workers. Although repealed by the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code 2020, the Act continues to govern legacy compliance, inspections, assessments, welfare claims, and litigation. The 2026 Edition integrates the amended Act, Central Rules, Welfare Cess legislation, section-wise explanatory notes, and prescribed forms, making it an authoritative resource for professionals dealing with historical liabilities and transition issues under the pre-Labour Codes regime.
