Hi, I wanted to know about HR-related labor laws covering all divisions, i.e., Personnel, Payroll, and Recruitment. Also, please suggest some good books on the same topic. I already have H.L. Kumar & S.D. Puri's books. If you know of any other books and their authors, kindly recommend them.
Thanks,
