Abstract
This article is an open and honest attempt to analyse the challenges for different personas in implementing the new labour law from the way I see it as Fractional Chief Human Resources Officer (CHRO) lens. The New Labour Codes are no doubt a great step towards the new evolving business and people of the digital economy. As the New Labour Code aims to simplify the major regulatory reforms aiming at beginning compliance efficiency, it is also a fundamental change in the approach. Despite the consolidation of multiple labour statutes and the promise of enhanced transparency, the effective implementation of these reforms has generated significant uncertainty across organisations and administrative systems. In this article, I am adopting a stakeholder-centric, practical challenges on the floor in implementation, while also emphasising a conceptual approach based on policy analysis and stakeholder mapping to examine implementation challenges associated with the New Labour Codes. The analysis focuses on four key stakeholder groups: senior leadership, human resource (HR) professionals, employees and HR technology platform providers.
