Overview of HR Policies
HR Policies are the legal backbone of your organization’s people management system. They define how employees are hired, managed, rewarded, disciplined, and exited — while ensuring full compliance with Indian labour laws.
At FastTrack FinTax, we design custom, legally compliant, and practical HR Policies that help businesses run smoothly, avoid disputes, and stay audit-ready every day.
