Decision workflow

1
Fix the legal event.
Record the date, actor, establishment, worker and decision being tested.
2
Open the official instrument.
Use the Code, Rule, Gazette notification, Scheme or signed order rather than a portal label.
3
Map transition and jurisdiction.
Check repeal, savings, appropriate Government, State action and later instruments.
4
Implement and retain proof.
Link the legal conclusion to payroll, HR, safety, filing, payment and decision records.
Failure mode: Record the legal basis for choosing Central or State jurisdiction before filing, issuing a notice or calculating a threshold.
Official starting points: Ministry Labour Codes library · India Code · eGazette.
