How do the Manipur rules relate to the OSH (Central) Rules, 2020?

Rule 3 adapts the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code (Central) Rules, 2020 for Manipur, so the operative safety, health and working-condition detail is drawn from the adapted Central Rules rather than restated in the state rules.

Rule 3 excepts the central rules' rule 1 and their rules 80 to 166 pertaining to mines; the explanatory statement lists central rules 2 to 79 and 167 as the adopted provisions.

How are central designations read for Manipur?

Rule 3 directs that references such as Chief Labour Commissioner (Central) and Labour Enforcement Officer (C) be read as the Labour Commissioner, Manipur and Labour Inspector, and that certain references to the concerned State Authority and State Government be deleted.

Which existing Manipur rules do the draft rules repeal?

Rule 4 repeals, on commencement, the Manipur Factories Rules and the Manipur Building and Other Construction Workers (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Service) Rules, while saving anything already done under them.
