Article 14 states everyone should be equal before the law; article 15 specifically says the state should not discriminate against citizens, and article 16 extends a right of "equality of opportunity" for employment or appointment under the state.
Article 19(1)(c) gives everyone a specific right "to form associations or unions". Article 23 prohibits all trafficking and forced labour, while article 24 prohibits child labour under 14 years old in a factory, mine or "any other hazardous employment".
Article 41 creates a "right to work", which the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act 2005 attempts to put into practice.
Article 42 requires the state to "make provision for securing just and human conditions of work and for maternity relief".
Article 43 says workers should have the right to a living wage and "conditions of work ensuring a decent standard of life".
Article 43A, inserted by the Forty-second Amendment of the Constitution of India in 1976, creates a constitutional right to codetermination by requiring the state to legislate to "secure the participation of workers in the management of undertakings".
