I stand by whatever I wrote in my earlier posts. I am sorry if i have soundrd bitter. But that is my oersonal experience.
The labour situation in our country is mainly due to the outdated laws, inspector raj and the general failure of all of us. I am sure many would agree with my statement about outdated laws. Even by looking at the year a law was enacted cleverly shows they have antique value. Most of these laws are amended subsequently only for cosmetic reasons. If somebody says our laws don't need to be revised and adequate to meet the present challenges which could never have been anticipated in those days I respect their views.I humbly submit that the situation needs honest introspection which would benefit the workers community.
I have seen first hand how the trade unions actions for more bonus had crippled the textile industry in tiruppur and kept the workers family hungry for months. What about mumbai. Are we happy with the strikes here.
I wish to quote a very senior labour consultants here. One factory did not respect the factory inspector the way he is used to be respected". As he could not find fault any where, he charged them for not keeping the white wash register updated under sec 11 C of factory act 1948. The firm neglected this aspect as it had completely covered all bathrooms with tiles. That is the power of inspectors and everyone is scared of inspections. I don't doubt there are many noble persons who are actually working for the welfare of workers but they are a rare commodity.
