Correct answer

A. Handbook of Compliance for Employers and a Compilation of Frequently Asked Questions

Explanation

The correct answer is the Handbook of Compliance for Employers and the Compilation of Frequently Asked Questions. Both were developed by the Ministry of Labour and Employment and handed to employers and compliance professionals so that they could apply the Labour Codes and the rules notified under them with less difficulty. Option B is wrong because no annual report or wage code manual was shared at this programme. Option C is wrong because the Ministry did not release an employment survey or a social security atlas here. Option D is wrong because no industrial relations digest or inspection checklist figured in the proceedings. A question and answer session followed the distribution, in which employers raised doubts on the codes, their compliance duties and social security provisions.
