Dear All,
Below is an email which i have received from one of my HR Counterparts. I request you all experts to provide inputs for the same.
The Government of Rajasthan and new Central Government has been extremely receptive about our loud calls to revise the decades old labor law regime. Rajasthan Government took unprecedented steps to make the State an investment friendly destination by legislating out few archaic provisions in the Shops and Establishment Act, the Factories Act and the Industrial Disputes Act, as applicable to the State.
Now the Central Government has swung into action - Labor Department recently called for public comments on certain proposed amendments to the Minimum Wages Act and the Factories Act as per the attached notifications published on their website. ( http://labour.nic.in <link fixed> ) & ( http://labour.nic.in <link fixed> )
We have reviewed the Minimum Wages Act, the Factories Act and the proposed amendments. Based on our experience, we worked out the following recommendations that we intend to send back to the Labor Department. As a valued partner in our efforts to improve and develop India’s HR legal framework, we invite your inputs on the proposed changes. Please feel free to write in any additional recommendation you may have. We will try our best to ensure that our collective voice is heard at the appropriate level.
Please refer the attached document for recommendations that we intend to send back to the Labor Department.
We look forward to hearing from you.
