Re: labour laws in India
by AG Agarwal on Oct 13, 2006 11:13 AM   Permalink

Labour laws are very old in India, they need updation, in Govt.Sector, one can divorce his wife but cannot part with a mischievious workman, due to procedural hurdles, India has been influenced by Communist system in relation to labour laws, we need a good social justice theory.where even on impression basis one can part with a undesired workman with suitable compensation even without an enquiry.
One big practical anamoly is that everyone who is serving even for a day is covered by PF, where some portion of employer contribution goes to Family pension, paricularly poor workman who works for a limited period say for 7 days, or upto 6 months, does not get anything, in case of parting with, as such huge amount is lying with PF authorities, but that poor fellow suffers. Some system should immediatly be evolved.
