A Study on Employee Welfare Measures adopted in Hal Overhaul Division Bangalore

CHAPTER-1 Introduction

Industrial progress largely depends on comity labour force. The importance of labour welfare measures was accepted as early as 1931, when the Royal commission on labour stated. The benefits, which he is unable to secure by himself. The schemes of labour welfare may be regarded as a wise investment which should and usually does bring a profitable return in the form of greater efficiency. Labour welfare work aims at improving of working and living conditions of workers, which would lead to the contentment in life, which in turn leads to their improved production and productivity, which in turn leads to improved profits, prosperity and survival chance of the enterprises. This is what is desired and aimed by all industrial managements. Managements. The National level, industrial labour constitutes an important and sizeable segment of the population. Their contentment is in itself the major aim of the welfare state. In addition, since their contentment leads to increased production and productivity, this in Labour welfare, therefore, constitutes an integral part of Industrial

turns leads to greater economic development of the country.

Consequently, labour

welfare constitutes an important aspect of National Planning or Programme. This is particularly so in a developing country like India which aims at rapid industrialization and faster economic development. The concept of labour welfare is flexible, elastic and differs from time to time, region to region, industry to industry and country to country, depending upon value system, level of education, social customs, degree of industrialization and the general standard of the socio-economic development of people. It is also related to the political situation, problems in the society and on the structure of the industry. It is molded according to the age group, sex, socio-cultural background, marital status, economic status and educational level of the employees in the various industries. This nature of the concept of labour welfare makes it very difficult for us to give a precise, all-inclusive single definition of the phrase. AIMS OF LABOUR WELFARE The aim or objective of labour welfare is partly humanitarian, partly economic and partly civil. It is Humanitarian, because it provides the workers with the basic necessities in life, which they themselves cannot, afford. It is Economic, because the various benefits and amenities increase the workers standard of living and hence their economic condition. Their better economic condition leads to their contentment in life which leads to better economic position of the industry

and hence of the country. It is Civic, because all the above will make the workers to have a sense of responsibility and dignity, which in turn would make them better citizens. APPROACHES TO LABOUR WELFARE Labour welfare can be studied from different angles such as: The location where these amenities are provided like within and outside the industrial undertaking. The nature of amenities like those concerned with condition of employment and living conditions of work people The welfare activities termed as Statutory, Voluntary and Mutual. The agency, which contributes to these amenities. A. On the basis of location of welfare facilities, Broughton has classified labour welfare work in two specific categories namely,
1. Intra-mural welfare work including various facilities

and amenities provided to the workers inside the factory such as medical facilities, bathing facilities, provision of safety measures, activities relating to improving the conditions of employment, recruitment and discipline and provisions of provident funds, pensions, gratuities, maternity benefits etc.

2. Extra-mural welfare work including the provision of

facilities and various amenities outside the factory, such as provision of educational and recreational facilities, sports, housing accommodation, medical facilities, provision of libraries and reading room, holiday homes. Leave travel facilities, workers cooperative societies. Transports like to and from the place of work other programmes for the welfare of women, youth and children etc. B) The welfare activities concerned with Living

condition of employment and conditions of work people.

Conditions of employment in these are included activities for the solution of problems such as hours of work, wages, holidays with pay, rest intervals, sanitation and safety, continuity of employment, limitation of female and juvenile labour. Living condition of work people in these are included all such schemes of benefits such as co-operative societies, legal and medical aid and housing and those activities concerned with the living conditions of workers. Labour welfare work may be Statutory, Voluntary or Mutual It is statutory when such activities have to be undertaken in furtherance of certain legislation of the Government.

SHGFGC

It is voluntary when activities have to be undertaken of their own accord by the employers/some philanthropic bodies, when the labour organization indulges in such activities for the welfare of their members. It is mutual when all parties join hands in the social and economic uplift of the workers. NEED FOR WELFARE WORK The need for labour welfare arises from the very mature of industrial system, which is characterized by two basic facts: The conditions under which work is carried on are not congenial for health. When labour joins industry he has to work in an entirely strange atmosphere, creating problems of adjustment. Labour welfare has its beneficial effects on the workers. The welfare measures influence the sentiments of the workers and contribute to the maintenance of industrial peace.. Better living, sickness and maternity benefits, Provident funds, pensions, educational facilities and entertainment facilities create a feeling amongst the workers that they have a stake in the industry and the workers become more stabilized and committed and economically efficient; the mental and moral health of the workers also improve.

Welfare work has been recognized as an integral part of industrial administration. Welfare work has postulated a real change of heart and a change of outlook on the part of both employers and workers by including in them a new spirit of self-satisfaction.

Scope Of Labour Welfare Work It is difficult to lay down the scope of labour welfare work accurately because of the fact that labour is composed of dynamic individuals with complex needs. The welfare activity involves directly or indirectly any hindrance physical or mental of the worker and restores to him the peace and joy of living. The following list gives the items under which welfare work should be conducted inside and outside the workplace.
1. Conditions of the work environment:

Workshop sanitation and cleanliness Factory sanitation and cleanliness Provision and care for drinking water Canteen services Management of workers cloak rooms, rest rooms and library 2.

According to Arthur James Todd, Labour welfare means anything done for the comfort and improvement, intellectual or social, of the employees over and above the wages paid which is not a necessity of the industry. According to a publication of ILO, Workers welfare should be understood as meaning with services, facilities and amenities which may be established in or in the vicinity of undertakings to enable the persons employed in them to perform their work in healthy and peaceful surroundings and to avail of facilities which improve their health and bring high morale

The modern concept of labour welfare entails all those activities of the employers which are directed towards providing the employees with certain facilities and services in addition to wages or salaries. The basic features of welfare measures are as follows:
a)

Labour welfare includes various facilities, services and amenities provided to workers for improving their health, efficiency, economic betterment and social status. Welfare measures are in addition to regular wages and other economic benefits available to workers due to legal provisions and collective bargaining. Labour welfare measures are flexible and ever-changing . New welfare measures are added to the existing ones from time to time. Welfare measures may be introduced by the employers, government, employees or by any social or charitable agency. The purpose of labour welfare is to bring about the development of the whole personality of the worker to make him a good worker and a good citizen. Scope of labour Welfare The Labour investigation committee preferred to include under labour welfare any thing done for intellectual, physical, moral and economic betterment of the worker, whether by employers, by Government or by other agencies, over and above what is laid down by law, or what is normally expected on the part of the contracted benefits for which workers may have bargained. Labour welfare includes both statutory as well as non-statutory activities undertaken by any of the three agencies-employers, trade unions or the Government for the physical and mental development of workers, both as a compensation for wear and

tear that he undergoes as a part of production process and also to enable Him to sustain and improve upon the basic capacity of contribution to the process of production. Significance of labour Welfare The logic behind providing welfare facilities is to create efficient, healthy, loyal and satisfied labour force for the organization and also for the nation, In India, industrial workers get the benefit of various welfare facilities. The purpose is to provide them better life and also to make them happy and efficient. The other equally important purpose is to raise their productivity. Welfare services are not a charity, they are essential to get higher productivity from the workers by satisfying their needs. The important benefits of welfare services are given below: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Welfare facilities provide better physical and mental health to the workers and make them happy. Such service facilities like housing scheme, mehical benefits, education and recreation facilities for the workers families help create contented workers families. Employees services serve to maintain some degree of peace with the employees unions in as much as these constitute a considerable part of the bargaining package, Employers get stable labour force due to the provision of welfare facilities. Employers secure the benefits of high efficiency, cordial industrial relations and low labour absenteeism and turnover. Labour welfare measures raise labour productivity and bring industrial peace and cordial labour-management relations. An employer is able to attract talented workers from the labour market by providing attractive welfare facilities.

The social evils prevalent in the labour-force such as gambling drinking, etc. are reduced. Agencies of labour welfare In India, the main agencies engaged in labour welfare include : a) Central Government: b) State Government: c) Employers, and d) Workers organizations. The contribution of these agencies is discussed below. a) Central Government The Central Government has passed a number of Acts for the welfare of different types of workers. It also administers the implementation of industrial and labour laws. The important Acts which incorporate measures for the welfare of the workers of the workers are : Factories Act, Indian Mines Act, Employment of Children Act, Maternity Benefits Act, Plantation Labour Act, etc. b) State Governments The Implementation of many provisions of various labour laws rests with the state Governments.

Many employers provide voluntarily welfare facilities. Along with the statutory welfare facilities. These include residential accommodation to employees, medical and transport facilities, reading rooms, scholarships to children of workers, patronise teams of employees for hockey, football, etc. Employers can provide welfare facilities individually or collectively i.e, through their associations. d) Trade Unions Trade Unions are supposed to raise the welfare of workers and naturally they are expected to provide certain welfare facilities to their members. Unions can provide educational, cultural and other facilities to their members. operative stores are also run by some unions. CoSome trade unions like the

Rashtriya Mill Mazdoor Sangh are doing good work in the field of labour welfare. In addition, Textile Labour Association Ahmedabad provides certain facilities like schools, social centres, libraried, legal aid,. to the textile workers. Thus, Textile thus, Textile Labour Association, Ahmedabad is doing good work in the field of labour welfare. On the whole, the role of trade unions in the field of labour welfare is insignificant as they face the problem of shortage of funds in providing welfare services to their members. e) Charitable Organisations Charitable organizations conduct social welfare activities, which are useful to all sections of the society including industrial workers. These agencies provide medical aid, educational facilities, scholarships, etc However; the contribution of such organisations in labour welfare is not so significant. Approaches to labour welfare

The various approaches to labour welfare reflect the attitudes and beliefs of the agencies which are engaged in welfare activities. Welfare facilities may be provided on religious, philanthropic some other grounds. Moreover, the different approaches to labour welfare reflect the evolution of the concept of welfare. A study of the approaches to labour welfare is desirable for the management, the worker and the general reader. For the general reader, a study of approaches is essential because his/her knowledge of the subject is a better plerspective on welfare work. The approaches and their brief descriptions are, 1. The policing theory of labour welfare. 2. The religion theory of labour welfare. 3. The philanthropic theory of labour welfare. 4. The paternalistic theory of labour welfare. 5. The placating theory of labour welfare. 6. The public relations theory of labour welfare. 7. The functional theory of labour welfare. 8. The social theory of labour welfare. incomplete without a knowledge of these approaches, and a knowledge of approaches enables the manager and the worker to have

Policing Theory According to this view, the factory and other industrial workplaces provide ample opportunities for owners and managers of capital to exploit workers in an unfair manner This could be done by making the labour work for long hours, by paying workers low wages, by keeping the workplaces in an unhygienic condition, b neglecting safety and healthy provisions, and by ignoring the provision of elementary human amenities, such as dinking water, latrines, rest rooms and canteens. Clearly, a welfare state cannot remain a passive spectator of this limitless exploitation it enacts legislation under which managements are compelled to provide basic amenities to the workers. In short, the state assumes the role of a policeman, and compels the managers of industrial establishments to provide welfare facilities, and punishes the non-compliers . This is the policing theory of labour welfare. Religion theory The religion theory has two connotations, namely, the investment and atonement aspects. The investment aspect of the religion theory implies that the fruits of todays deeds will be reaped tomorrow. Any action, good or bad, is therefore treated as an investment. Inspired by this belief, some employers plan and organize canteens and crches. The atonement aspect, of the religion theory implies that the present disabilities of a person are the result to the sins committed by him/her previously. He/she should undertake to do good deeds now to atone or compensate for He/her sins. There is the story of a big Jain employer who firmly held the belief that the provision of welfare facilities for workers was outside the duties of the management. Whatever he did was under government compulsion and supervision. It so happened, however, that the children born to him died as soon as they were born, Later, is own health suffered, He felt

SHGFGC

16

Dandinashivara

that, as a compensation, or expiration or even as an investment in a good deed, he should liberally contribute to the crche in the factory (as well as to other child-welfare institution), an also to medical services for his workers Consequently, in this particular factory, there came to exist an excellent crche and a well-organised dispensary. Philanthropic Theory Philanthropy means affection for mankind. The philanthropic of labour welfare refers to the provision of good working conditions, crches and canteens out of pity on the part of the employers who want to remove the disabilities of the workers. The philanthropy theory is more common in social welfare. Paternalistic theory According to the Paternalistic theory, also called the Trusteeship theory of the labour welfare, the industrialist or the employer holds the total industrial estate, properties and the profits accruing from them, interest. The property which he/she can use or abuse as he /she likes is not entirely his/her own. He/she use, no doubt, but also for the benefit of his/her workers, is not for the whole society. The trusteeship is not actual and legal but it is moral and, therefore, not less real. Placating Theory This theory is based on the assumption that appeasement pays when the workers are organized and are militant. Peace can be brought by welfare measures. Workers are like children who are intelligent, but not fully so. As crying children are pacified by sweets, workers should be pleased welfare works.

SHGFGC

Public Relation Theory According to this theory, welfare activities are provided to create a good impression on the minds of the workers and the public, particularly the latter. Clean and safe working conditions, a good canteen, crche and other amenities, make a good impression on the workers, visitors and the public. Functional Theory Also known as the efficiency theory of the labour welfare, the functional theory implies that welfare facilities are provided to make the workers more efficient. If workers are fed properly, adequately and treated kindly, and if the conditions of their work are congenial, they will work efficiently. Welfare work is a means of securing, preserving and increasing the efficiency of labour. Social Theory The social obligation of an industrial establishment had been assuming great significance these days. A social theory implies a factory is morally bound to improve conditions of the society in addition to improving the conditions of its employees. Labour welfare as mentioned earlier, is gradually becoming social welfare.

Overhaul Division of Hindustan Aeronautics Limited. Bangalore The origin of the Overhaul Division can be traced back to the erstwhile Hindustan Aircraft Limited established at Bangalore on 23rd December 1940 by a far sighted industrialist, the late Seth Walchand Hirachand in association with the Government of the then Princely State of Mysore with the object of establishing an aviation industry that can take up assembly and overhaul of aircraft under license. As a principal overhaul base for the South East Asia Command of Allied Forces between 1942 and 1945, the Division maintained and repaired Liberator, Fortress, Mitchell, Dakota, Curtis Commando and PSY Catalina amphibian aircraft. After the end of the 2nd World war, the main activity of the Division was getting the Dakotas, Liberators, Tempest and Tiger Moths airworthy for the use of Indian Air Force and Civil operators. After Independence of the country in 1947, Overhaul Division Bangalore oriented its activities to major overhaul of aircraft of Indian Air Force and rendering 1st and 2nd Line Servicing of aircraft at various IAF Bases.
