PROJECT INTRODUCTION
Factory acts generally includes labour welfare, its all about how can we take care about
welfare of employees. Lets have some discussion about labour welfare.

HISTORY OF LABOUR WELFARE
"During the pre-independence period, industrial relations policy of the British
Government was one of laissez faire and also of selective intervention. There were
hardly any labour welfare schemes. After independence, labour legislations have
formed the basis for industrial relations and social security. These legislations have also
provided machinery for bipartite and tripartite consultations for settlement of disputes.
Soon after independence, the government at a tripartite conference in December 1947
adopted the industrial truce resolution. Several legislations, including the following,
were enacted to maintain industrial peace and harmony: Factories Act, 1948,
Employees State Insurance Act, 1948 and Minimum Wages Act, 1948. The payment of
bonus act was passed in 1965.
In the early 1990s, the process of economic reforms was set in motion when the
government introduced a series of measures to reduce control on industries,
particularly large industries. The workers have opposed economic liberalisation policy
for fear of unemployment while entrepreneurs have welcomed it in the hope of new
opportunities to improve Indian industries. The new economic policy has directly
affected industrial relations in the country, because the government has to play a dual
role, one of protecting the interest of the workers, and second to allow a free interplay of
the market forces. Economic reforms, by removing barriers to entry, have created
competitive markets. Fiscal stabilization has resulted in drastic reduction in budgetary
support to the public sector commercial enterprises while exposing these enterprises to
increased competition from private sector
Labour and Labour Welfare sub-sector consists of six main programs viz. Labour
Administration, Rehabilitation of bonded labour, Assistance to Labour Cooperatives,


Craftsmen training program, Apprenticeship training program, Employment Services
and Sanjay Gandhi Swavalamban Yojana.
Manpower, employment policy and labour welfare in India: post-independence
developments:
Many researches has been done in the following themes, such as
1. Manpower: trends and magnitude.
2. Employment policies and programs.
3. Labour welfare: legal framework and initiatives.
4. Women workers: legislations and empowerment.
5. Industrial relations and labour laws.
6. Restructuring of labour laws: the great debate.
7. Labour laws and welfare: India and ILO.
8. Labour reforms: India and WTO. II. India's Five Year Plans at a glance. III. Edited
extracts from India's Five Year Plans on employment and labour related matters (I
plan to X plan including mid-term appraisal of the X Plan).
Strengthening of Medical wing of the Directorate of
Industrial Safety and Health:-
There are different types of industries in Maharashtra like heavy and light engineering,
heavy and light chemical industries, petrochemicals, pesticides, fertilizers, textile and
Electronic Industries. All these pose their own potential hazards, which may cause acute
and chronic side effects on the health of the workers. In Maharashtra, the chemical
factories which include heavy chemical complexes or small chemical factories which
may produce acute effects on the health of the workers to such an extent that it may
result in death. Pesticides spilled on the body of the workers are equally dangerous.


Improvement of communications, mobility of Factory Inspectors
For the quick transmission of messages relating to factory accidents, gas leaks, fires and
disasters in the area a broad network of office/ residential telephones is an essential-
requisite for the Factory Inspector, the concerned Dy.Chief Inspector of Factories, the
Chief Inspector and from C.I.F.to higher authorities. Quick transmission of such
messages to the area Factory Inspector and others not only facilitates a prompt inquiry
into the mishap and its causes but also enables the concerned authorities to bring into
action the various control measures in the case of disaster. An outlay for Tenth Five
Year Plan 2002-2007 is Rs.150.00 lakh. Out of that an outlay Rs.5.00 lakh is provided
for Annual Plan 2002-2003.
Tribal sub-plan area
Labour and labour welfare
Labour sector addresses multi-dimensional socio-economic aspects affecting labour
welfare, productivity, living standards of labour force and social security. To raise
living standards of the work force and achieve higher productivity, skill up gradation
through suitable training is of utmost importance. Manpower development to provide
adequate labour force of appropriate skills and quality to different sectors is essential
for rapid socioeconomic development. Employment generation in all the productive
sectors is one of the basic objectives. In this context, efforts are being made for
providing the environment for self-employment both in urban and rural areas. During
the Ninth Plan period, elimination of undesirable practices such as child labour, bonded
labour, and aspects such as ensuring workers safety and social security, looking after
labour welfare and providing of the necessary support measures for sorting out
problems relating to employment of both men and women workers in different sectors
has received priority attention.

The Central Board of Workers Education through its regional offices is striving to
educate the workers to help to avoid wasteful expenditure, adopting cost effectiveness


and by enhancing productivity of qualitative nature. They have been conducting the
following programs:
Rural Awareness Program.
Functional Adult Literacy Classes.
Short-term programs for the unorganized sector to educate them on their rights,
ethics and hygiene.
Participative Management.
Orientation Courses for Rural Educators.

Family Welfare Policy:-

In India, the need for controlling population growth
had been recognized for a long time. India was the first
country in the world to adopt an official national family
program in 1952.
During the first and second five-year plan, the FP
program was taken up to in a modest way with a clinical
approach. During the third plan period 1961-66, there was


shift in the program strategy from a clinical approach to
extension approach.
The main objectives this policy is given below:-

To provide information to eligible couples on
available contraceptive methods on a criteria basis
and
Provision of supplies and services in the fourth and
fifth plan, the F.P. program was accorded a high
priority and the program underwent great expansion
and consolidation with larger allocation of funds.

Family planning was integrated with the overall strategy
of socio-economic development. Some of important
features of the National Pollution Policy of 2005 were;

Increase in the age of marriage from 15 to 18 years
for Girls and from 18 to 21 for Boys.
Freezing of the population figure at the 1971 level
until the year 2001 for purpose of representation in


the national Parliament as well as for allocation of
central assistance to the states for their development
with their performance in Family Planning.
Giving greater attention to girls education.
Ensure a proper place for population education in the
total system of education.
Involvement of all Ministers/Department of the
Government in the family planning programs.
Increase in monetary compensation for sterilization.
Institution of group awards as incentive for various
organization and bodies representing the people at
local level including Zillah perished and Pinhead
Sanities.
Imparting more importance to research activities in
the field of population control.
Use of mass media for motivation particularly in
rural areas for increasing the acceptance of family
planning method.

National Health Policy:-


For the first time the country has made a national
health policy was approved by the Parliament in 2005. The
national health policy
has enunciated the long term demographic goal of
reaching a replacement level of fertility by 2000 A. D. at
the lowest feasible levels as shown below:-

B.R. - 21 per thousand 33.6

D.R. - 9 per thousand 11.9

I.M.R. - below 60 thousand live births 105.0

C.R.R. - 60 per cent 32.3

The stress in the National Health Policy is on



Provision of primitive, preventive and rehabilitation
health services to the people a shift from medical care
to health and from urban to rural population.
Acceleration of programs for welfare of women and
children including F.P.
Control of Leprosy, T.B. and blindness.
Nutrition programs for pregnant women, Nursing
mothers and children especially in more remote hilly
and backward areas.

Industrial Support to F.P.P.
The organized sector has a unique place in the nation
effort to reduced population growth. It offers both a large
potential and linkage to the rural areas for keeping inputs
to the acceptance of family welfare by the masses of a
country.
Our experience shows that whenever top Mgt. has
taken an interest in the programs they have met with
success. How ever, in most cases such interest is self-
generated and personal. The organized sector can classify
into three categories:-



1. The private Sector
2. Private Sector
3. Public Sector

PUBLIC SECTOR:-
The public sector undertake where adequate health
and medical facilities exists provide F.P.P. services
facilities to their employees. The department of family
welfare also gives grant in aid for running of F.W.
programs in public sector undertaking according to the
approved pattern of assistance. The large number of
public enterprises owned by central Govt. can play a big
role in F.W. movement in the country as they have a
variety of media and the means the means to conduct F.W.
campaigns.
Private Sector:-
Private sector undertaking has been involved in the past
with UNFPA / ILO Assistance through ministry of labour.
However, the Govt. thinks is now to have some projects


assisted with their own funds. Under this project, 12000
families in 200 slums in the city areas and suburbs of
Madras will be covered to provide F.P. service through
IEC and MCH activities.
