<h1>Offences by employees under Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code: employee penalties and employer liability conditioned on due diligence.</h1> Section prescribes penal liability for employees who contravene duties under the Code, imposing a monetary penalty which may extend to ten thousand rupees for such offences. It further provides that the employer will not be held guilty for the employee's contravention unless it is proved that the employer failed to take all reasonable measures to prevent the offence, establishing a due diligence defence that conditions employer liability on failure of preventive measures. The provision allocates direct penal responsibility to employees while limiting vicarious liability of employers subject to proof of lack of reasonable prevention.
