A student classifies Indian labour laws into groups for a project. Which of the following correctly matches a classic classification of labour laws with the group of subject matter it covers?

Social security laws cover benefits such as provident fund, gratuity and maternity support. In the standard classification, industrial relations deal with unions, disputes, strikes and lockouts, wages laws deal with pay and bonus, and working conditions laws deal with safety, health and welfare.

  1. ALaws on industrial relations deal with wages, bonus and minimum pay only
  2. BLaws on social security deal with benefits such as provident fund, gratuity and maternity supportCorrect
  3. CLaws on working conditions deal only with trade union registration
  4. DLaws on wages deal with settlement of strikes and lockouts

Explanation

Traditional classification groups labour laws into industrial relations, wages, working conditions (safety, health, welfare) and social security. Social security covers provident fund, gratuity, maternity benefit and similar protections. The other options mismatch the subject with the category, for example strikes belong to industrial relations, not wages.
