There are different perceptions on Labour Relations. If the past view was centered on how labor could be put to effective use by managing them properly, the present view is centered on how effectively the resources in labor could be utilized. In all observations, directly or indirectly, managing the personnel is present. To be successful, you have to be very patient, tactful, flexible, and confident in labor laws. Have a proper understanding of the Standing Orders of the company. Study the psychology of the men, have an idea of the family background of the employees, and always try to settle the issues within your cabin itself. Be friendly towards workers, but never be sentimental. This is because you have to consider the interests of the management as well.

There is hardly any difference between Labour and Employee when viewed from Industrial and labour enactments. However, those covered under labour laws (at present most of the Acts cover according to wages paid and as such an average pay of Rs 10,000 - except EPF under which it is Rs 6,500 - can be taken) can be presumed to be coming under Labour, and all ministerial/administrative staff members come under 'Employee'. Still, the expression 'Employee' includes labour/workers. Therefore, this term can be replaced with the narrower term 'Labour Relations'.

Hi,
There is a difference between labor and employee. Labor refers to individuals who perform their duties within the categories of unskilled/semi-skilled/skilled workers and do not have the authority to oversee work in a supervisory capacity. It is possible for a workman to also be a manager, and vice versa, depending on the nature of the work.
On the other hand, an employee falls within the category of supervisors/officers/managerial staff and possesses the authority to supervise the work performed by workmen who are under the direct control of immediate supervisors.

Dear Mr. Ashok,
I regret to say that this type of classification is solely a matter of practice. As I have also pointed out, employees are expected to include managerial staff. However, when the position is questioned, it falls outside the scope of 'labour,' and we struggle to confine unskilled, semi-skilled, and casual labor to the intended term. Due to the rising cost of living and wages, most laws now apply to those earning up to Rs 10,000. In light of this, and with the emergence of workers being replaced by Knowledge Centres, why not refer to all workers as employees?
