The Role of Government Policies in Improving the Lives of Blue-Collar Workers in India

Blue-collar jobs and workers play a critical role in the development of the Indian economy. These workers are engaged in occupations that require manual labor and typically involve skilled or unskilled work. Examples of blue-collar jobs include plumbing, mechanic jobs, electrician jobs, driver jobs, and many others. However, despite their crucial role in the economy, blue-collar workers often face challenges, such as low wages, poor working conditions, and a lack of social security benefits. In this blog, we will discuss the role of government policies in improving the lives of blue-collar workers in India.

Government Policies and their Impact on Blue-Collar Workers

The Indian government has taken several initiatives to support blue-collar hiring in recent years. These policies aim to address some of the challenges blue-collar workers face and improve their overall quality of life. Let's take a look at some of these policies and their impact:

Pradhan Mantri Mudra Yojana (PMMY)

The Pradhan Mantri Mudra Yojana is a government scheme that provides loans up to Rs. 10 lahks to small business owners and entrepreneurs. This scheme has significantly impacted blue-collar workers, as many are self-employed or small business owners. By providing access to credit, the PMMY has enabled blue-collar workers to start and grow their businesses, thereby improving their economic status. This scheme is indeed going to do great wonders for the entireblue-collar job sector.

National Skill Development Corporation (NSDC)

The National Skill Development Corporation was established to promote skill development among the Indian workforce. The NSDC offers several vocational training programs to improve the skills of blue-collar workers. Through these programs, blue-collar workers can acquire new skills and upgrade existing ones, making them more employable and improving their earning potential.

Pradhan Mantri Rojgar Protsahan Yojana (PMRPY)

The Pradhan Mantri Rojgar Protsahan Yojana provides incentives to new jobs in the formal sector. This scheme has had a positive impact on blue-collar hiring as it has encouraged the creation of new jobs, particularly in sectors such as manufacturing, construction, and services. This has resulted in an increase in employment opportunities for blue-collar workers and improved their overall job security.

Minimum Wages Act

The Minimum Wages Act is a government policy that sets minimum wages for workers in different sectors. This policy has been particularly beneficial for blue-collar workers as they often face low wages and exploitation. By ensuring that workers receive a minimum wage, the government has helped improve the economic status of blue-collar workers and provided them with a basic standard of living.

Social Security Schemes

The Indian government has implemented several social security schemes to provide financial protection to workers. These schemes include the Employee Provident Fund (EPF), Employee State Insurance Scheme (ESIS), and the National Pension Scheme (NPS). These schemes have had a significant impact on the lives of blue-collar workers by providing them with financial security in case of unforeseen events such as illness, disability, or retirement.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the Indian government has taken several initiatives to improve the mechanism of  blue-collar hiring. These policies have had a significant impact on the economic status, job security, and social security of blue-collar workers in India. However, there is still much more to be done to address the challenges faced by blue-collar workers, such as improving working conditions, increasing wages, and providing access to better healthcare facilities. As a society, we must recognize the importance of blue-collar workers and continue to support them in their efforts to improve their lives and contribute to the development of the Indian economy.

Enable longer work hours: CII to Centre

New Post has been published on https://apzweb.com/enable-longer-work-hours-cii-to-centre/

Enable longer work hours: CII to Centre

The Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) has recommended that the government issue guidelines directing direct workers to rejoin duty. Those failing to report for work must be made liable for action under the Employment Standing Order Act and the Industrial Dispute Act.

The recommendation, along with several more, were made at a meeting between CII representatives and Labour and Employment Minister Santosh Kumar Gangwar on Friday.

“The Ministry of Labour and Employment [must issue a circular/guideline] to direct workers to join back at their workplace. In case workers do not report back, they should be liable for action under the Employment Standing Order Act and Industrial Dispute Act,” the recommendations stated. It added that States needed to put the revision of minimum wages on hold for at least one year and that normal working hours of employees across sectors are increased by allowing four hours overtime per day. “For working overtime, workers would be paid in proportion to the normal wages. The workers’ consent has to be taken for the overtime,” it said.

Additionally, to address the shortage of workforce, the CII has suggested that migrant workers residing in shelter homes or available locally near the industrial belts be mapped and deployed to the nearest factories. The industry body has also recommended that the provisions of layoff under the Industrial Dispute Act be extended to commercial establishments as a job retention measure for workers having no work. “For the period of layoff, such workers shall remain on rolls and will get reduced wages along with statutory benefits such as ESIC and PF.”

“… to allow industry to pay wages as per the layoff (50% basic plus DA) provisions for the period no work is carried out for the month of April and May 2020,” it said. Further, it sought removal of labour advisories issued under the Disaster Management Act that prohibits employers from any wage reduction, layoff and retrenchment of workers. “… the MHA has now eased permissions to private establishments to resume operations. With commencement of economic activity, we request you kindly remove the applicability of DM Act for industry and let the Labour Laws preside.”

On review of labour laws, the industry body said it is critical that these changes are not rushed into without addressing industry concerns. “This is especially relevant today when the industry is redefining its business models and working practices in many sectors as a response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Labour codes should be further reviewed to enable greater ease of doing business and encourage entrepreneurship.”

The CII added that the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana ought to be extended to more establishments. Currently, the scheme is eligible for wage earners working in establishments employing up to 100 employees, with 90% of employees earning monthly wages less than ₹15,000/- pm. “[Extend the scheme to organisations having 50-60% workforce earning up to ₹25,000 p.mThis will ensure the benefit of the scheme to more beneficiaries particularly the MSMEs,” it said.

It added that Employees’ State Insurance Corporation and the EPFO should take up massive campaigns and draw up a communication strategy to inform workers to rejoin work. Additionally, to encourage organisations to retain the job offers and promote fresh employment, the Government can consider restarting Pradhan Mantri Rojgar Protsahan Yojana, it said.

“To consider unutilised funds/unclaimed funds to pay wages to subscribers during the lockdown period i.e. to consider the lockdown period as national emergency of temporary closure of workplace due to natural calamity to help all industries,” the CII said in the recommendations.

  Introduction

The “e” in e-Governance stands for ‘electronic’. Thus, e-Governance is basically associated with carrying out the functions and achieving the results of governance through the utilization of ICT (Information and Communications Technology).

In this century where almost everything has been made electronic like e-commerce, e-service, e-learning, etc. the Indian government is also trying to go with the wave and wants to govern through ICT.

प्रधानमंत्री रोजगार प्रोत्साहन योजना के तहत 46 लाख को मिली नौकरी, 1 करोड़ है टारगेट

प्रधानमंत्री रोजगार प्रोत्साहन योजना यानी (PMRPY) की ओर से नौकरी देने वाली कंपनियों अथवा संस्थाओं को EPF Subsidy दी जा रही है। इसके बारे में कहा जा रहा है कि ईपीएफ पर यह सब्सिडी दिए जाने से देश में 46 लाख नए रोजगार सृजित हुए हैं। गौरतलब ��ै कि pradhan mantri rojgar protsahan yojana (PMRPY) ने EPFO के साथ मिलकर इस काम की शुरूआत August 2016 में की थी जिसको अब जल्द से जल्द और आगे बढ़ाया जा रहा है। इस योजना के तहत 1 करोड़ रोजगार सृजित करने का लक्ष्य है। ऐसे में माना जा रहा है कि अब बड़ी संख्या में देश के युवाओं के लिए नौकरियों के अवसर निकलने जा रहे हैं।

क्या है PMRPY Scheme इस योजना का मकसद देश में युवाओं को रोजगार मुहैया कराना है। इस स्कीम के तहत अभी नौकरी देने वालों कंपिनयों अथवा संस्थाओं द्वारा कर्मचारियों को दिए जाने वाले ईपीएफ में 8.33% (EPS) दिया जा रहा है। लेकिन अब सरकार की ओर से इसे बढ़ाकर 12% EPF+EPS किया जा रहा है जिससें रोजगार देने वाली कंपनियों अथवा संस्थाओं पर ईपीएफ का भार कम होगा और वो बचा हुआ पैसा नए रोजगार सृजित करने में लगाएंगी।

दो तरह से हो रहा फायदा प्रधानमंत्री रोजगार प्रोत्साहन योजना की इस नई स्क���म से दो तरह से फायदे हो रहे हैं। एक तो यह कि नौकरी देने वाली कंपनियों को इंसेंटिव मिलता और दूसरा कि लोगों को नई जॉब पाने में आसानी होती है। इस स्कीम का फायदा नौकरी देने वाली कंपनी को 3 साल तक मिलता इस स्कीम का फायदा वो लोग उठा सकते हैं जिन्होंने अपना रजिस्ट्रेशन PMRPY की वेबसाइट पर कराया है। इस योजन के तहत टेक्सटाइल सेक्टर में शुरूआत करने वाले लोगों को स्पेशल इंसेंटिव दिया जाता है।

प्रधानमंत्री रोजगार प्रोत्साहन योजना का रिपोर्ट कार्ड July 2017 से शुरू हुई इस योजना के तहत अब तक लगभग 46 lakh लोगों को लाभ मिला है। इस योजना के तहत सरकार का लक्ष्य 1 करोड़ लोगों को रोजगार देना है। इस वजह से सरकार इस स्कीम के लिए बजट को Rs. 2500 crore से बढ़ाकर लगभग Rs 6500 से Rs 10,000 crore तक करने जा रही है। इस योजना के तहत सरकार की ओर से अब तक Rs. 830,92,02,543/- खर्च किए जा चुके हैं जिनमें से टेक्सटाइल सेक्टर को Rs. 23,71,24,235/- खर्च किए गए हैं। हालांकि EPFO के तहत रजिस्टर्ड करने वालों 9,23,176 लोगों में से 58,423 को इसका लाभ मिला है। इनमें से केवल 783 ही टेक्सटाइल क्षेत्र के हैं।
