CHAPTER I

1.1 INTRODUCTION OF THE STUDY

Welfare means facing or doing well. It is a comprehensive term and refers to the
physical, mental, moral and wellbeing of an individual. Further the term welfare is a
relative concept relative in time and space. It therefore varies from time to time from
region to region and from country to country.

Labor welfare and social measures are known as labour’s service program or
fringe benefits. Labours enjoy these services (such as canteen crèches, education and
recreation facilities) without any references to the specific work done by them.

‘Welfare’ is a broad concept referring to a state of living of an individual or a


group in a desirable relationship with the total environment ecological, economic and
social Labor welfare. It includes both the social and economic content of welfare. Social
welfare is primarily concerned with the solution of various problems of the weaker
section of the society like prevention of destitution and poverty.

It aims at social development by such means as social legislation, social reform,


social action services, social work and social action. The object of economic welfare is to
promote economic development by increasing production, productivity and through
equitable distribution. The Labor welfare is a part of social welfare, conceptually and
operationally converts a broad field and connects a state of well-beings, happiness,
satisfaction conservation and development of human resources.

Labour Welfare such facilities sanitary and medical facilities arrangement for
travel to and from work for the accommodation of the workers labours at a distance from

1
the homes and such other service amenities and facilities including social security
measure has contribute to and improvement in the condition under workers are employed.

Labour welfare refers to all those effects of employers, trade union, voluntary
organization and governmental agencies, which help labours, feel better and perform
better.

Labour welfare is a term, which must necessarily be elastic, somewhat different in


interpretation in one country from another, according to the different social customs, the
degree of industrialization and educational level of the workers.

Welfare Measures to Workers

The Welfare measures provided are

➢ First Aid box


➢ Bonus
➢ Increment
➢ Sufficient supply of drinking water.
Industrial progress depends on a satisfied labor force. In recognition on this fact,
the importance of labor welfare measures was accepters as early as 1931, when the royal
commission on labor states: “the benefits, which go under these women culture are of
great importance to the worker and which he is unable to secure by himself. The
schemes of labor welfare may be regarded as a wile incensement which should are
usually does bring a profitable return in the form of greater efficiency.

Labor welfare measures also have beneficial on the workers. The welfare
measures influences the sentiments of the workers are contribute to the maintenance of
industrial peace. Better housing, sickness and maternity benefits, provident funds and
pension educational facilities and entertainment etc. Creates a feeling and among the
workers that they have a state in the industry the workers become more stabilized and
committed and economically efficient, and the mental and moral health of the worker is

2
improved. There is a social reason also. As pointed out by the labor investigation
committee, “the provisions of vices ; medical and entertainment rescuer the incidence of
vices ; medical and maternity and child welfare service improve the health the workers
and bring down the rates of general material and infinitive mortality; and educational
facilities increase their mental efficiency and economic productivity.

Now a day’s almost every enterprise incurs expenditure on the welfare of its
labours. The ultimate aim behind these facilities is to improve the lot of workers, the
degree of their efficiency and the quantum and quality of service. The facilities are both
the welfare measures to safe guars the health of factory. Worker within the work place
has been made statutory under the factories the Act, 1948. These provisions ensure that
conditions of work, as far as possible, so not adversely affect their health. These relates
mainly to cleanliness disposal of waste and attluent, ventilation, control of temperature,
elimination of dust and fumes, artificial water facilities, latrines, urinals and spittoons,
washing facilities, facilities for storing and drying clothes, facilities for sitting, rest
shelters, first-aid appliances, canteens, checkrooms and creates. The establishment
covered under factories Act, 1948 is statutorily required to provide all such welfare
facilities.

The welfare amenities provided outside the word places are generally no statutory
in nature are including housing recreation medical are transport facilities, etc. Twenty
years later the planning commission realized the importance of labor welfare, when it
observed that in order to get best out of worker in the matter of production, working
condition required to be include to a large extent. The should at least have the means of
facilities to keep himself in a state of health and efficiency this is primarily a question of
adequate nutrition and suitable housing conditions the working condition should be such
as to safeguard his health and protect him against occupational hazards.

The work place should provide reasonable amenities for his essential needs the
worker should also be equipped with necessary technical training and a certain level of
general education. The needs for labor welfare arise from very nature of industrial
3
system which is characterized basic to the facts the condition answer which work is
carried on are not congenial for health; and second when labour joins industry he has to
work in an entire strange atmosphere creating problems of adjustment one another cal
these to facts the long arm of job and the social invasion of thefactory.

The working environment in a factory adversely affects the worker’s health


because of the excessive heat or cold, noise, odour, tumes, dust, insanitation and lack of
pure air. This leads to occupational health hazard and respiratory diseases.

Providing better service and work conditions devices and compensatory benefit in
case of accidents or injury or disablement can minimize these adverse effects. This has
been referred to as the ling arm of the job, which stretches out its adverse effects on the
worker long his normal 8 hours work Hence the need for provision welfare services
within true premises of the factory mine or a plantation.

“When a worker who is generally a rural life, come to work in a factory, he had to
work and live in unhealthy, congested factories and slum areas, with no outdoor
recreation facilities. To escape from firing conditions of tedious and tiresome job, be
absents himself becomes irregular and often indiscipline. All these changes have been
return to as the social invasion of the factory. Hence the need for providing welfare
service, for whether improves condition of work and life for labours. Whatever leads to
increasing adaptation of the worker to his task and whatever make him fully contented
lesion his desire or need to leave the factory for a time and lighten for him and the
factory.

OBJECTIVES OF LABOUR WELFARE MEASURES:

A. To win over labourers loyalty and increase their morale.


B. To combat trade unionism and social ideas.
C. To build up stable labour force, to reduce labour turnover and absenteeism.
D. To develop efficiency and productivity among workers.

4
F. To earn goodwill and enhance public image.
TYPES OF LABOUR WELFARE SERVICES:

We may classify all labour welfare services under two heads:

education, housing, transport, recreation, etc.,)

pay due attention to industrial safety and tale adequate steps to prevent industrial
accidents. Safety also helps to improve the morale and productivity of workers.

HEALTH SERVICES:

The prevention of constitutes only one segment of the function of labour


maintenance. Another equally important segment is the labour’s general health, both
physical and mental. The factors, which influence the general health of the worker, can
be divided into two broad groups, namely:

5
A. Those, which are associated with his/her working environment
B. Whose, which he/she shares with the rest of community.

CHAPTER II

2.1 INDUSTRY PROFILE

The fruit juice market in India has been growing steadily and with the increase in
health conscious consumers, the market is expected to get a boost. Among the major
segments in the market namely fruit drinks, nectar and 100 percent fruit juice, the fruit
drinks market accounts for the maximum market share. The rising consumption of
packaged products reflects the demand for the organized juice market.

Man eats food for living in the world the different kinds of food given strength to
the man for doing work. These fruit is used as a food. Fruits have a form of nutrition
value. Fruits contain vitamins the fruits are broadly divided into two categories. Some
fruit are used as food as some others are not used as for food. The fruits develop seeds
and may aid in their propagation.

Fruits are production from flow and they are ripened very or ovaries of a plant
together with adjacent hiss fruits are hasty on pulpy in character often juice usually sweet
fragrant aromatic flowers.Fruits are also called “productive food group” it’s vital
protective nutrients protect the body against infection and disease of various kinds and
ensure physical efficiency. Fruits are in moisture, carbohydrates, protein, fiber content
and acidity and also in vitamin. More attractive and enjoyable by the variety of colors
text turns and flowers they provide.

Mango is of the important crops for the Indian farmer. Mango pulp is the main
products that we get from Mango Other products such as biogases for industrial use,
molasses for distillery, filter cake. Mud as an organic manure and green leaves with tops
for cattle feed are also available as byproducts, Because of its multi uses mango has
played crucial role in Indian economy with Rs.20, 000 crores turnover and width 450

13
Mango pulp industries providing assistance to 45 million mango farmers and 1 million
mango farmers and 2 million workmen directly and indirectly.

In TN mango pulp industry is an important agro-based industry, occupying the


second position next to textile industry. The annual cultivated area is about 3.00 lakh
hectares with a yield of 209.72 lakhs of tones during 2007-08. At present, there are 36
mango pulp factories in the state and 50% of them are in co-operative sector. The Mango
pulp units in the states have been suffering due to lack of adequate cane irrigation
facilities, working capital, by-products utilization, excessive employment etc.

The Mango pulp industries which provide direct employment to about 3 lakhs
persons of sugarcane followed by Brazil & Cuba. Mango existed in India from 3000
B.C. The center place of origin of Mango regarded as northeastern India, from Mango
seems to have been to china and other places by early travelers and no mans between
1800 and 1700 B.C. Later. India as the world's largest producer of mango occupies a very
pride place in the world. In India, the cultivation of mango is 10,000 miles tones. The
average yield being 56 tones per acre of total cultivating land is occupied by mango
cultivation.

Scope of the industry:

Fruit juice are an important supplement to the human diet as they provide the
essential minerals , vitamins and fiber required for maintaining health. In India , the total
fruit juice production is about 137 million litres per year. The varied agro climatic
conditions available in our country makes it possible for us to produce several types of
tropical , subtropical and temperate fruits. It has been variously estimated that 20 to 30%
of the horticultural produce is lost before consumption which accounts for Rs.5000 crores
because of poor harvesting, handling, storage, transportation and marketing practices.
The fruit juice are highly perishable commodities and the ambient high temperature
obtained in the tropical country like ours makes them more susceptible for rapid
development of senescence, decay and rotting. Both respiratory and transpiratory rates
14
are proportional to temperature increases and so that the produce quickly dries, wilts and
spoils unless properly preserved.

In India there are 4000 processing industries are functioning. But a marginal
quantity of 1.0 to 2.0 % of the produce is processed and packaged in contrast with
developed and developing countries i.e., 70 to 80% . The total annual consumption of
processed packed fruit juice products in the country is reckoned at only 5,000 crore litres
of which defence and star hotels account for 1500 crore litres and the remaining 3500
crore to the public , i.e a per capita consumption of 40 litres / year. Thus we can see an
enormous scope and potential for the expansion of fruit juice industries in India in the
future.

Fruit pulp Industries in Krishnagiri District:

In Tamil Nadu, there are 385 fruit processing units, out of which 80 per cent of
the units are under the category of small industries with an average capacity of 500tonnes
per day. The remaining units are medium scale category with an average capacity of 1000
tones per day.

efforts to build up the infrastructure facilities like cold storage for mango fruit and mango
pulp products will continue in the coming years. Emphasis will be on developing export
oriented mango varieties.

CHAPTER III

3.1 REVIEW OF LITERATURE

Aquinas (2008) in the book, “Human Resource Management” explained the


intra-mural and extra-mural welfare benefits provided to labours. He stated that some
welfare benefits are provided as per legislation while some other welfare benefits are
provided voluntarily by management or as a result of bi-partite settlements between the
Management and Trade Unions.

Srivastava (2008) in his thesis, “Labour Welfare in India” detailed upon the
labour welfare measures undertaken by select public and private sector companies in
India. He found that public sector companies are far better than their private counterparts
in the provision of welfare facilities to workers and labours.

SubbaRao (2008) in his M.Phil. dissertation, “Women Welfare in Jute Industry


(A Study on Welfare Programmes in selected Jute Mills Eluru in Andhra Pradesh)”
explained the welfare facilities provided by companies such as Shri Bhajaranga Jute
Mills, Guntur, Shri Krishna Jute Mills, Eluru to their labours in detail. The study revealed
that these companies have to do a lot in the area of welfare for the betterment of women
labours.

Sambasiva Rao (2008) in his thesis, “A Study of Welfare, Health and Safety of
Workers in the Cement Industry of Guntur District” probed into the health, safety and
welfare measures provided by various cement companies in the Guntur district of Andhra
Pradesh. The study found that large cement companies provide better health, safety and
welfare measures as compared to small and medium scale cement companies.

Iswanadh (2008) in his thesis, “A Study on Welfare Facilities and its Impact on
the efficiency of labours in APSRTC found that the provision of welfare facilities has a
positive impact on the efficiency of labours

23
Mr.Damu at a Seminar Held In Cochi On May 21, 2oo8: The theme for the
seminar was: ‘labour reforms and the social safety net in the context of globalization’.
India’s labor laws were intended to be friendly to labours, but they ended up being anti-
employment labor reforms is a very sensitive subject in the India context, given the
ground realities of poverty, illiteracy, diseases, deprivation, exploitation, low per-capital,
income etc. this means that whatever is taken up in the name of labour reforms, be it in
the sphere of employment, welfare or human resources, needs careful handling. This
should have started not as part of the second-generation reforms, but when the initial
economic reforms were undertaken. However better late than never a labour reforms is
not just about facilitating the closure of sick industrial unit or about lying off labours.
Neither a different management approach not trade union militancy is going to lead to
labor reform.

Srinivasan (2008), the author being a experienced executive had dealt with the
workers engaged in the Kolar Gold Mines in Karnataka. He had dealt aspects like socio
economic conditions of workers and details about the labour welfare problems in the
Mining industry and some fruitful suggestions have been delineated.

Bose (2008), the author Dr.(smt) Maitriyee Bose an M.P; has in her article
presented various problems concering the employment of women in different industries.
She has examined with more and more employment of the women workers in productive
work can be taken as the indication of progress has analyzed the question of women’s
employment un the light of its economic impact on family as well as on society.

National Commission (2008), the report of this commission was appointed in


1966 had reviewed many aspects of labour welfare in India such as exciting conditions of
labour. Legislative measures available to protect their interest level of workers earning
standard of living and various welfare facilities viz. health and medical facilities
canteens, crèches, housing, transportation, recreational provision of family planning and
adult educations etc. It had reviewed the existing welfare facilities in real areas also.

24
National Commission (2009), in conjunction with the passage in 1970 of the
Occupational Safety and Health Act Congress established a National Commission

prompt, equitable system of compensation. The work in hand is the result of the
mandated study and evaluation.

This report contains 3 major sections:

 A presentation of objectives for a modern workmen compensation


programs.
 An evaluation of state workmen’s compensation programs and
recommendations. And
 A discussion of a future of workmen’s compensation.
Analysis and evaluation can’t take place in a vacuum; they need to be undertaken
against a backdrop of objectives. The frameworks of objectives utilized to the
commission include.

 Broad coverage of labours and work related injuries and diseases.


 Substantial protection against interruption of income
 Provision of accident medical care and rehabilitation service.

Dixon, Jr (2009), in this volume, Dixon has made a significant contribution by his
analysis of the problems of administrating the disability provisions of the Social Service
Act. He has collected and analyzed information from many sources, including court
cases, administrative hearing, and prior studies and has appeared the standards and
administrative procedures involved in this compels social insurance programme.

The author demonstrates his extensive knowledge on the subject in the chapters
dealing with the problems of processing a clain and the social security administrations
lack of clarity in outlining disablity standards, and its consistency in appling claim. The
25
relation of court action to these problems is also effictively considered in the authors
analysis. The author refers to President Rooserelt’s statement that if the old age program
were set up as insurance, it resistant to being undermined by subsequent administrations.

Sharma (2009),the study throws light on the history of labour movement, origin,
growth and development. It depicts the picture of a long historical movement of
organized labpur full strains and stresses from 1885-1980. The author also predicts
lightly fresher upon Indian Trade Unions for change and adaptability.

In the last experiments in workers participation in management and the


problems arising out of in India have been discussed, so the various articles
brought together in this book reflect appreciation of labor in Indian economic
development. The above mentioned studies have somehow covered problems of
labor welfare but their main thrust was on industrial relation, trade unionism, and
workers participation in the management.

The author has studied the problems welfare, role of trade union in labor
welfare, socio economic conditions at workers, role of administrative machinery
in labour welfare and performance evaluation of welfare, prov ision in the public
and private sector in comparative perspective.

A study conducted by (Saiyaddin, 2009) examined the purpose and cost


of non-statutory welfare activities for the organizations. Five public and six
private sector organizations were selected for the study. The study brought out an
important conclusion that the most predominant theme in the minds of
organizations when they think of the voluntary welfare measures was not only
the output and efficiency but also increasing loyalty and morale. In respect of
cost, the study revealed, that the public sector organizations spend more on
welfare activities, as compared to private sector. While public sector spends
more on transportation and recreation, private sector was found to be spending
more on housing according to the study.

26
The research work of (Misra, 2009) aimed at sociological analysis of
the labour welfare problems of sugar industry. The analysis was based on the
first hand data collected from the sugar factories of Eastern Uttar Pradesh. Th e
study concluded that the conditions of work in sugar factories of eastern region
of Uttar Pradesh were not very satisfactory particularly in the respect of safety
measures, cleanliness, sanitation, latrine facilities, drinking water, rest rooms,
etc. It also pointed out that the provisions for leaves and holidays, lighting,
housing, medical, education, are far from satisfactory.

The study of (Zacharaiah, 2009) 6 based on a sample survey of


manufacturing undertakings in Bombay, covered welfare services an d working
conditions while surveying the factors affecting industrial relations. It was
observed that better working conditions and adequate provision of welfare
services would contribute to harmonious industrial relations.

A study conducted by (Koshan, 2010) pointed out that inspite of


statutory provisions and enforcing agencies in India, the welfare facilities were
absent and the cement industry was the only one where provisions were
adequately enforced. The study suggested that need for overhauling and
tightening the machinery of inspection. Appointment of welfare inspectors for
different industries, distinguishing the duties of factory inspectors from those of
welfare inspectors to submit annual and quarterly reports and empowering the
welfare inspectors to fine in case of default, were some of the steps suggested in
this study.

A study conducted by A.M.sharma 2010 the necessity of labour welfare


is felt all the more in our country because of its developing economy aimed at
rapid economic and social development. Royal commission on labour stated the
benefits which go under this nomenclature, are of great importance to the
workers and which he is unable to secure by himself. The scheme of labour

27
welfare may be regarded as a wise investment, which should and usually
does bring a profitable return in the form of greater efficiency.

A study conducted by C.B.Mamoria and S.Mamoria 2010, twenty


years later the planning commission also realized the importance of labour
welfare, when it observed that. In order to get the best out of a worker in the
matter of production, working conditions require to be improved to a large
extent. The workers should at least have the means and facilities to keep him in a
state of health and efficiency. This is primarily a question of adequate nutrition
and suitable housing conditions. The working conditions should be such as to
safeguard his health and protect him against occupational hazard. The work place
should provide reasonable amenities for his essential needs. The worker should
also be equipped with necessary technical training and a certain level of general
education. The concept of labour welfare is flexible and elastic and differs
widely with times, regions, industry, country, customs and degree of
industrialization prevailing at particular moments.

The oxford dictionary defines labour welfare as effort to make life worth
living for workmen. Encyclopedia of social sciences defines welfare work as
voluntary efforts of the employer to establish, within the existing industrial
system working and sometimes living and cultural condition of the employers
beyond what is required by law, the customs of the country and conditions of the
market´. Labour welfare is, therefore, one of the major aspects of national
programmes towards improving the lot of labour and creating a life and work
environment of decent comfort for this class of society.

A study conducted by Tripathi, 2010 it is however, difficult to precisely


define the scope of labour welfare efforts. Different writer have defined it in
different ways. Some writers say that only voluntary efforts on the part of
employer to improve the conditions of employment in their factory. Some others

28
say it includes not only voluntary efforts but also the minimum standards
of hygiene and safety laid down in general legislation.

A study conducted by K.K.Ahuja, 2012, The state take steps by


suitable legislation or in any other way to secure participation of workers in the
development of undertakings, establishments or other organization engaged in
any industry.

Tripathi. Personnel Management &Industrial Relation, Sultan


Chand & Sons-New Delhi, 2012, ILO (international labour organization),
classify all labour welfare services under two categories, viz, intramural and
extramural. Intramural services are those, which are provided within factory.
Extramural services are those, which are provided outside the factory.

Kudchelkar (2013) in his book, “Aspects of Personnel Management and


Industrial Relations” felt that the need for labour welfare arises from the very nature of
the industrial system . He felt that employers need to provide welfare facilities to labours
as the latter are exposed to various risks and at the same time they have to work in an
entirely strange atmosphere.

Tyagi (2013) in his book, “Labour Economics and Social Welfare” discussed the
labour welfare practices in India such as the provision of intra-mural and extra-mural
welfare facilities. He also discussed the various agencies involved in labour welfare.
However, the study is totally theoretical in nature.

Ahuja (2013) in his book, “Personnel Management” emphasised the need for
labour welfare and social security in India. He felt that provision of welfare and social
security measures makes the labours satisfied with their jobs leading to their improved
performance.

Arun Monappa (2013) in his book, “Industrial Relations” discussed labour


welfare and social security measures in detail. He also explained the various problems

29
faced by the enforcement machinery in the implementation of these welfare and social
security measures.

Tripathi (2013) in his book, “Personnel Management & Industrial Relations”


explained the principles of labour welfare services, types of labour welfare services,
different legislations

and Acts. He also discussed the social security measures in terms of medical care,
sickness benefit, unemployment benefit, maternity benefit etc., besides explaining the
social security system in India.

David, A Decenzo (2013) and Stephen P. Robbins in their book, “Personnel /


Human Resource Management explained the various benefits and services provided by
the companies to their labours. According to them, the legally required benefits and
services include social security premiums, unemployment compensation, workers
compensation and state disability programs. They felt that the cost of the voluntary
benefits offered appears to be increasing.
