Select the correct answer using the codes given below.
Codes :

Explanation

The Code on Wages, 2019 was enacted to simplify and rationalize the existing labor laws by amalgamating four central legislations:

  • The Payment of Wages Act, 1936
  • The Minimum Wages Act, 1948 (Statement I)
  • The Payment of Bonus Act, 1965 (Statement II)
  • The Equal Remuneration Act, 1976 (Statement IV)

The Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970 (Statement III) was not included in the Code on Wages; instead, it was amalgamated into the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020. Since statements I, II, and IV are correct, the correct option is C.
