INTRODUCTION

Labour Welfare is an important fact of industrial relations, the extra

dimension, giving satisfaction to the workers in a way which even a good wage

cannot. With the growth of industrialization and mechanization, it has acquired

added importance. Employers need an added stimulus to keep body and soul

together. Employers have also realized the importance of their role in providing

these extra amenities. And yet, they are not always able to fulfill workers demand

however reasonable they might be. They are primarily concerned with the viability

of the enterprise. Labour welfare though it has been proved to contribute toefficiency in production, is expensive. Each employer depending on his priorities

gives varying degrees of importance to labour welfare. The committee on Labour

Welfare (CLW), formed in 1969 to review the labour welfare scheme, described it

as social security measures that contribute to improve the conditions under which

workers are employed in India.

Welfare means faring or doing well, it is a comprehensive term,and refers, to the physical, mental, moral and emotional well-being of an

individual. Further the term Welfare is relative concept, relative in time and space.

It therefore, varies from time to time, from region and from country to country,

Labour welfare, also referred to as betterment work for employees, relates to

taking care of the well-being of works by employers, trade unions, and

governmental and non-governmental agencies. It is rather difficult to define the

term labour welfare precisely because of the relativity of the concept reported the

royal commission on the labour.

In a resolution in 1947, the ILO defined Labour Welfare as “Such

services, Facilities, and Amenities as adequate Canteens, Rest and recreation

facilities, arrangement for travel to and from work, and for the accommodation of

workers employed to a distance from their houses, and such other services,

amenities and facilities as contributed to improve the conditions under which

workers are employed.

However, the ILO at its Asian regional conference defined Labour

Welfare as a term which is understood to include such services, facilities and

amenities as may be established in or in the vicinity of undertakings to enable the

persons employed in them with amenities conductive to good health and highmodel. Labour welfare has two aspects negative and positive. On the negative side

labour welfare is concerned with counteracting the baneful effects of the large

scale industrial systems of production especially capitalistic, so far as India is

concerned on the personal/family, and social life of the worker. On its positive

side, kit deals with the provision of opportunities for the workers and he/her family

for a good life as understood in its most comprehensive sense.

LABOUR WELFARE

INTRODUCTION:

Employee or labour welfare is a comprehensive term including various

services, benefits and facilities offered to employees by the employer. Throughsuch generous fringe benefits the employer makes life worth living for employees.

The welfare amenities are extended in addition to normal wages and other

economic rewards available to employees as per the legal provisions. According to

Dr.Parandikar, “Labour welfare work is work for improving the health, safety and

general well being and the industrial efficiency of the workers beyond the

minimum standard laid down by labour legislation”. Welfare measures may also

be provided by government, trade unions and non-government agencies in addition

to the employer. The basic purpose of labour welfare is to enrich the life of

employees and keep them happy and contented. Welfare measures may be both

Welfares measures

statutory and voluntary. Labour laws require the employer to extend certain

benefits to employees in addition to wages. Voluntary benefits are the result of

employer’s generosity, enlightenment and philanthropic feelings.

Importance of Labour Welfare Measures:

The significance of Welfare measures was accepted as early as 1931,

when the royal Commission on labour stated: The benefits are of great importance

to the worker which he is unable to secure by himself. The schemes of labour

welfare may be regarded as a wise investment because these would bring a

profitable return in the form of greater efficiency.

The working environment in factory adversely affects the health of

employees because of excessive heat or cold, noise, fumes, dust and lack of

sanitation and pure air. Such oppressive condition create health problem for

workers. These have to be contained through preventive steps aimed at improving

the lot of workers.

A Second reason in favour of welfare work is called the ‘Social

invasion of the factory’. Workers face lots of adjustment problems when they take

up factory work. The congested environs, noisy machines, slum areas, monotonous

jobs impact the psyche of ruralities who come to cities in search of jobs. To escape

from such trying conditions, the worker absent himself, becomes irregular and

shows signs of indiscipline. Such changes - known as the social invasion of the

factory - call for extra inducements in the workplace in addition to normal wages,

so that the worker begins to enjoy a fuller and richer life.

Page 15

Welfares measures

Another social reason pointed out by the labour investigation

committee reads thus: “the provision of canteens improves the physique;

entertainment reduces the incidence of vices; medical aid, maternity and child

welfare services improve the health of the workers and bring down the rates of

general, maternal and infantile mortality; and educational facilities increase their

mental efficiency and economic productivity”.

DEFINITION

“ LABOUR WELFARE refers to all those efforts of employers, trade unions,

Voluntary organisations and governmental agencies which help employees feel

better and perform better”

“LABOUR WELFARE is a term which must necessarily be elastic, bearing asomewhat different interpretation in one country from another, according to thedifferent social customs, the degree of industralisation and educational level of theworkers”

The Labour Investigation committee (1944-46) includes under labour welfareactivities "anything done for the intellectual, physical, moral and economic

betterment of the workers, whether by employers, by government or by other

Page 16

Welfares measures

agencies, over and above what is laid down by law or what is normally expected as per of the contractual benefits for which the workers may have bargained."

Purpose of Labour Welfare Measures:

• Enables workers to have a richer and more satisfying life.

• Raises the standard of living of the workers by indirectly reducing the

burden on their pocker. Welfare Measures will improve the physical and

psychological health of employees, which in turn, will enhance their

efficiency and productivity.

• Absorbs the shocks injected by industrialization and urbanization on

workers.

• Promotes a sense of belonging among workers, preventing them from

resorting to unhealthy practices like absenteeism, labour turnover, strike,etc. Welfare work makes the service in mills more attractive to workers. It

improves the relation between employers and employees. “It promotes a

real change of heart and change of outlook on the part of both the employers

and employees”.

• Prevents social evils like drinking, gambling, prostitution, etc., by improving

the material, social and cultural conditions of work. Congenial environmentas a result of welfare measures will act as a deterrent against such social

evils.

Labour Welfare Officer: The Factories Act, 1948 the plantation Labour Act, 1951

and the Mines Act, 1951 provide for the appointment of a Labour Welfare Officer

if the number of works employed within a unit exceeds 500. The post has been

created specifically to :

Eliminate the malpractices of jobber system in the recruitment of labour.

Improve labour administration in factories.

Serve as liaison with the state labour commissioner.

The Labour Welfare Officer was also expected to discharge thefunctions of a policeman, with respect to law and order situation within an

organization. In each case the respective state governments may prescribe duties,

qualification and conditions of service of such officers.

The Labour Welfare Officer Should possess a university degree,

degree or diploma in social service/social work from a recognized intuition and

adequate knowledge of local Language of the area where the factory is situated.

THEORIES OF LABOUR WELFARE

The form of labor welfare activities is flexible, elastic and differs from time totime, region to region, industry to industry and country to country depending uponthe value system, level of education, social customs, degree of industrializationand general standard of the socio-economic development of the nation.

Page 18

8/8/2019 Chirag Final Project

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/chirag-final-project 19/80

Welfares measures

Seven theories constituting the conceptual frame work of labour welfare

activities are the following :-

The Police Theory : This is based on the contention that a minimum standardof welfare is necessary for labours. Here the assumption is that without

policing, that is, without compulsion, employers do not provide even the

minimum facilities for workers. Apparently, this theory assumes that man is

selfish and self centered and always tries to achieve his own ends, even at the

cost of the welfare of others. According to this theory, owners and managers

of industrial undertakings get many opportunities for exploitation of labour.

Hence, the state has to intervene to provide minimum standard of welfare to

the working class.

• The Religious Theory : This is based on the concept that man is essentially

"a religious animal." Even today, many acts of man are related to religious

sentiments and beliefs. These religious feelings sometimes prompt an

employer to take up welfare activities in the expectation of future

emancipation either in this life or after it.

• The Philanthropic Theory : This theory is based on man's love for mankind.

Philanthropy means "Loving mankind." Man is believed to have an

instinctive urge by which he strives to remove the suffering of others and

promote their well-being. In fact, the labour welfare movement began in the

early years of the industrial revolution with the support of philanthropists.

Page 19

8/8/2019 Chirag Final Project

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/chirag-final-project 20/80

Welfares measures

• The Trusteeship Theory : This is also called the Paternalistic Theory of

Labour Welfare. According to this the industrialist or employer holds the

total industrial estate, properties, and profits accruing from them in a trust. In

other words, the employer should hold the industrial assets for himself, for

the benefit of his workers, and also for society. The main emphasis of this

theory is that employers should provide funds on an ongoing basis for the

well-being of their employees.

• The Placating Theory : This theory is based on the fact that the labour

groups are becoming demanding and militant and are more conscious of their

rights and privileges than ever before. Their demand for higher wages and

better standards of living cannot be ignored. According to this theory, timely

and periodical acts of labour welfare can appease the workers. They are some

kind of pacifiers which come with a friendly gesture.

• The Public Relation Theory: This theory provides the basis for an

atmosphere of goodwill between labour and management, and also between

management and the public, labour welfare programmes under this theory,

work as a sort of an advertisement and help an organization to project its

good image and build up and promote good and healthy public relations.

• The Functional Theory : This is also called the Efficiency Theory.

Here, welfare work is used as a means to secure, preserve and develop the

efficiency and productivity of labour, It is obvious that if an employer takes

good care of his workers, they will tend to become more efficient and will

thereby step up production. This theory is a reflection of contemporary

support for labour welfare. It can work well if both the parties have an

Page 20

Welfares measures

identical aim in view; that is, higher production through better welfare. And

this will encourage labour's partcipation in welfare programmes.

The duties and responsibilities of a Labour Welfare Officer may be

summarize as:

• Advisory:

He can advise and suggest the formulation of company labour policies;

Promote training programmes, promote welfare scheme; secure housing,recreational and educational facilities for workers, etc.

• Service oriented:

He can offer help to workers in solving family and personal problems in

adjusting to work environment, in understanding their rights and privileges,

in forwarding application for leave, etc. He can offer help to management by

making workers understand various problems.

• Supervisory:

He can supervise, inspect and regulate welfare, health and safety

programmes, working of joint committees and paid vacations.
