CHAPTER -I
INTRODUCTION OF THE STUDY:
EMPLOYEE WELFARE
Employee welfare defines as “efforts to make life worth living for workmen”. These
efforts have their origin either in some statute formed by the state or in some local custom or in
collective agreement or in the employer’s own initiative.
6
To earn goodwill and enhance public image.
To reduce the threat of further government intervention.
To make recruitment more effective (because these benefits add to job appeal).
Following are generally given as the principles to be followed in setting up a employee
welfare service:
The service should satisfy real needs of the workers. This means that the manager must
first determine what the employee’s real needs are with the active participation of
workers.
The service should such as can be handled by cafeteria approach. Due to the difference
in Sex, age, marital status, number of children, type of job and the income level of
employees there are large differences in their choice of a particular benefit. This is
known as the cafeteria approach. Such an approach individualizes the benefit system
though it may be difficult to operate and administer.
Safety Services
The costs of accidents are enormous in suffering to the injured, in reduction or loss of earnings,
in disabilities and incapacities which afflict those involved and in compensation, insurance and
7
legal costs, in lost time, filling in reports and attending to enquiries, and in spoilage of materials,
equipment and tools to management.
Accidents are the consequence of two basic factors: technical and human. Technical
factors include all engineering deficiencies, related to plant, tools material and general work
environment. Thus, for example, improper lighting, inadequate ventilation, poor machine
guarding and careless housekeeping are some hazards which may cause accidents. Human
factors include all unsafe acts on the part of employees. An unsafe act is usually the result of
carelessness.
Young and new employees, because of their difficulty in adjusting to the work situation
and to life in general, also have many more accidents than do old and nature workers.
The Phenomenon of Accident Proneness. Some persons believe wrongly in the theory that
certain individuals are accident prone, that is , they have some personality trait as opposed to
some characteristic of the environment which predisposes them to have more accidents than
others in work condition where the risk of hazards is equal to all.
Among the many components of a safety service the following have proved effective
when applied in combination:
The safety department is a must. In small organizations, the personnel manager may look after
the functions of this department. The head of the safety department, who is usually a staff man,
is granted power to inspect the plant for unsafe condition, to promote sound safety practices
(through posters an d safety campaigns), to make safety rules, and to report violations to the
plant manager.
8
Support by line management
functional position, by himself, cannot make a plan safe. His appointment lulls line management
into assuming that all its safety problems have been solved.
Elimination of hazards
an expert to discover hazards. He should then suggest changes in their motion patterns, sequence
and the like.
Placement
than a properly placed employee. Employees should be placed on jobs only after carefully
estimating and considering the job requirements with those which the individual apparently
possesses.
9
Safeguarding machinery
machinery.
Materials handling
Hand tools
tool or using a poorly designed tool. Therefore, close supervision and instruction should be
given to the employees on the proper tool to use the proper use of the tool.
whereas safety education is concerned with increasing contest programmes, safety campaigns,
suggestion awards, and various audiovisual aids can be considered as different forms of
employee education.
Safety inspection
10
installations, poor work methods and disregard of safety rules) is a very effective device to
promote safety.
Health Services
The prevention of accident constitutes only on segment of the function of employee
maintenance. Another equally important segment is the employee’s general health, both physical
and mental.
1. Preventive
2. Curative, the former consists of
3. pre-employment and periodic medical examination,
4. removal or reduction of health hazards to the maximum extent possible,
5. Surveillance over certain classes of workers such as women, young persons and persons
exposed to special risks.
Counseling Services
An employee very often comes across problems which have emotional content. For
example, he may be nearing retirement and feeling insecure or he may be getting promotion and
feeling hesitant to shoulder increased responsibility or he may be worried due to some family
problem.
The chapter on the Directive Principles of State Policy in our Constitution expresses the
need for labour welfare thus:
11
1. The State shall strive to promote the welfare of the people by securing and protecting as
effectively as it may a social order in which justice, social, economic and political, shall
inform all the institutions of the national life.
2. The State shall, in particular, direct its policy towards securing:
3. That the citizens, men and women equally, have the right to an adequate means of
livelihood;
4. That the ownership and control of the material resources are so distributed as to subserve
the common good.
1. The State shall make provision for securing just and humane conditions of work
and for maternity relief.
The principal Act to provide for various labour welfare measures in India is the Factories
Act, 1948. The Act applies to all establishments employing 10 or more workers where power is
used and 20 or more workers where power is not used, and where a manufacturing process is
being carried on.
Section 49 of the factories act provides that in every factory wherein 500 or more
workers are ordinarily employed the employer shall appoint at least one welfare officer.
The welfare officer should possess; (i) a university degree; (ii) degree or diploma in
social service or social work or social welfare from a recognized institution; and (iii) adequate
knowledge of the language spoken by the majority of the workers in the area where the factory is
situated.

commencement of this act at least 9.9cubic meters and of a factory built after the
commencement of this act at least 4.2 cubic meters of space for every employee.
Lighting. The State Government may prescribe standards of sufficient and suitable
lighting.
13

allowed to work on any dangerous machine (so prescribed by the state government)
unless he is sufficiently trained or is working under the supervision of knowledgeable
person.
Device for cutting off power. Suitable device for cutting of power in emergencies shall
be provided.
14
Welfare of Employees
Chapter V of the factories Act contains provisions about the welfare of employees.
These are as follows:
There shall be separate and adequately screened washing facilities for the use of male and
female employees.
There shall be suitable places provided for clothing not worn during working hours and
for the dying of wet clothing.
There shall be suitable arrangement for all workers to sit for taking rest if they are
obliged to work in a standing position.
There shall be provided the required number of first-aid boxes or cupboard (at the rate of
one for every 150 workers) equipped with the prescribed contents readily available
during the working hours of the factory.
The State Government may make rules requiring that in any specified factory employing
more than 250 employees a canteen shall be provided and maintained by the occupier for
the use of the employee.
There shall be provided sufficiently lighted and ventilated lunch room if the number of
employees ordinarily employed is more than 150.
No child who has not completed his fourteenth year shall be required or allowed to work in any
factory.
A child who has completed his fourteenth year or an adolescent shall not be required or allowed
to work in any factory unless following conditions are fulfilled:
1. The manager of the factory has obtained a certificate of fitness granted to such young
15
2. While at work, such child or adolescent carries a token giving reference to such
certificate.
Before a young person is employed in the factory, a certifying surgeon has to certify that such
person is fit for that work in the factory.
Welfare Funds
In order to provide welfare facilities to the workers employed in mica, iron, ore,
manganese ore and chrome ore, limestone and dolomite mines and in the beedi industry, the
welfare funds have been established to supplement the efforts of the employers and the State
Government under respective enactments.
The welfare measures financed out of the funds relate to development of medical
facilities, housing, supply of drinking water, support for education of dependents and recreation,
etc.
Voluntary Benefits
Benefits are also given voluntarily to workers by some progressive employers. These
include loans for purchasing houses and for educating children, leave travel concession, fair
price shops for essential commodities and loans to buy personal conveyance.
It is the duty of the Chief inspector of factories (who generally works under the administrative
control of the labour commissioner in each state) to ensure enforcement of various provisions of
Factories Act i8n respect of safety, health and welfare of workers.
16
2. Central Labour Institute
The institute was set up in Bombay in 1966 to facilitate the proper implementation of the
Factories Act, 1948; to provide a centre of information for inspectors, employers, workers and
others concerned with the well being of industrial labour and to stimulate interest in the
application of the principles of industrial safety, health and welfare.
The National Safety Council was wet up on 4th March, 1966 in Bombay at the initiative of the
Union Ministry of Labour and Rehabilitation, Government of India, as an autonomous national
body with the objective of generating developing and sustaining an movement of safety
awareness at the national level.
The Director General of Mines Safety enforces the Mines Act, 1952. He inspects electrical
installation and machinery provided in the mines and determines the thickness of barriers of 2
adjacent mines in order to prevent spread of fire and danger of inundation.
1. One of the main obstacles in the effective enforcement of the welfare provisions of the
Factories Act has been the quantitative and qualitative inadequacy of the inspection staff.
2. at present, a labour welfare officer is not able to enforce laws independently because he
has to work under the pressure of management.
3. Women workers do not make use of the crèche facilities either because they are
dissuaded by the management to bring their children with them or because they have to
face transport difficulties.
1. The statutory provisions on safety are adequate for the time being effective enforcement
is the current need.
17
2. Every fatal accident should thoroughly be enquired into and given wide publicity among
workers.
3. Employers should play a more concerted role in safety and accident prevention
programme and in arousing safety consciousness.
4. Safety should become a habit with the employers and workers instead of remaining a
mere ritual as at present.
5. Unions should take at least as much interest in safety promotion as they take in claims for
higher wages.
SOCIAL SECURITY
The connotation of the term “Social Security” varies form country to country with
different political ideologies. In socialist countries, the avowed goal is complete protection to
every citizen form the cradle to the grave.
Medical care
Sickness benefit
Unemployment benefit
Old-age benefit
Employment injury benefit
Family benefit
Maternity benefit
Invalidity benefit and
Survivor’s benefit
1. Social assistance under which the State finances the entire cost of the facilities and
benefits provided.
2. Social insurance, under the State organizes the facilities financed by contributions form
the workers and employers, with or without a subsidy from the state.
18
Social Security in India
At present both types of social security schemes are in vogue in our country. Among the
social assistance schemes are the most important.
The social insurance method, which has gained much wider acceptance than the social
assistance method, consists of the following enactments.
a. Coverage. This Act covers all workers employed in factories, mines, plantations, transport
undertakings, construction works, railways, ships, circus and other hazardous occupations
specified in schedule II of the Act.
The Act empowers the State Government to extend the coverage of the Act by adding any
hazardous occupation to the list of such occupations is schedule II.
1. Other than seasonal factories, run with power and employing 20 or more workers.
19
2. Administration. The Act is administered by the ESI corporation, an autonomous body
consisting of representatives of the Central and State Governments, employers,
employees, medical profession and parliament.
3. Benefits. The Act, which provides for a system of compulsory insurance, is a landmark
in the history of social security legislation in India.
1. Medical Benefit. An insured person or (where medical benefit bas been extended
to his family) a member of his family who requires medical treatment is entitled
to receive medical benefit free of charge.
2. Sickness Benefit. An insured person, when he is sick, is also entitled to get
sickness benefit at the standard benefit rate corresponding to his average daily
wage.
3. An insured woman is entitled to receive maternity benefit (which is twice the
sickness benefit rate) for all days on which she does not work for remaining
during a period of 12 weeks of which not more than 6 weeks shall precede the
expected date of confinement.
4. The Act makes a three-fold classification of injuries in the same way as is done in
the workmen’s compensation Act.
5. Dependant’s Benefit. If an insured person meets with an accident in the course
of his employment an dies as a result thereof, his dependants, i.e. his widow,
legitimate or adopted sons and legitimate unmarried daughters get this benefit.
Employees State Insurance Act, 1948. Another important legislation in this respect is the
Maternity Benefit Act, 1961. The Act covers only those persons who are not covered by the
Employees State Insurance Act. The Act entitles a woman employee to claim maternity leave
from her employer if she has actually worked for a period of at least 160 days in the 12 months
immediately proceeding the day of her expected delivery.
20
The act further provides for the payment of medical bonus of Rs. 250 to the confined woman
worker.
The committee on the status of women in India 1974 has, there fore,
1. The administration of the fund should follow the pattern already established by the ESIC.
2. For casual labour a minimum of 3 months of service should be considered as
qualification service for this benefit.
3. This will provide greater incentive to women workers to participate in trade union
activities.
1. Coverage. The Act applies to every factory, mine, oilfield, plantation, port and railway
company and to every shop or establishment in which 10 or more persons are employed,
or were employed, on any day of the preceding 12 months.
2. Administration. The Act is administered by a controlling authority appointed by the
appropriate Government.
3. Benefits. Under the Act gratuity is payable to an employee on the termination of his
employment after he has rendered continuous service for not less than five years. The
completion of continuous service of five years is, however, not necessary where the
termination of the employment is due to death or disablement Gratuity is payable at the
rate of 15 days’ wages based on the rate of wages last drawn by the employee for every
complete year of service or part thereof in excess of six months. But the amount of
gratuity payable to an employee shall not exceed Rs. 3.5 lakh.
4. Source of Funds. Under the Act gratuity is payable entirely by the Employer. For this
purpose is required either (i) to obtain insurance with the Life Insurance Corporation, or
(ii) to establish a gratuity fund. Thus it is his liability to pay the premium in the first case
to make the contribution in the second case.

the country and the conditions of the market”.
AIMS OF EMPLOYEE WELFARE WORK
Labor welfare work aims at providing, such service facilities and amenities which enable
the employees employed in industries / factories to perform their work in a healthy, congenial
surrounding conducive to good health and morale.
Employee welfare aspects can be considered into negative and positive aspects. IN the
negative side, employee welfare is concerned with counteracting the harmful effects of the large
scale industrialization on the personal, family and social life of the worker. In its positive side,
it deals with the provision of opportunities for the worker and his family for a socially and
personally good life.

condition refers to the health is the outcome of the interaction between the individual and his
environment. The modern concept anticipates and recognizes potentially harmful situation and
applies engineering control measures before series of injury results”.

a collective term used to characterize all the various activities and disciplines devote to
maintaining and promoting the health, safety and productivity of wage earners. Occupational
health employees give priority to preventing those illnesses and accidents, which are directly
attributable to or associate with, the work performed”.
WORKING CONDITION

morale leading to increase productivity. This is a response to change in general and should be
taken as a response to specific change hence manager has to be careful in generalizing from the
temporary increase in productivity.

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF LITERATURE
According to Arthur james Todd, “welfare as anything done for the comfort or
improvement and social of the employees over and above the wages paid, which is not a
necessity of the industry”.
Employee welfare means, such services, facilities and amenities such as canteens, rest and
recreation facilities, arrangement for travel to and for the accommodation of workers employed
at a distance from their home, and such other services, amenities and facilities including social
security measures as contribute to improve the condition under which workers are employed.
Employee welfare may be viewed as a total concept, as a social concept and a relative
concept. The total concept is a desirable state of existence involving the physical, mental, moral
and emotional well-being. The social concept of welfare implies, of man, his family and his
community.
The relative concept of welfare implies that welfare is relative in time and place. Employee
welfare implies the setting up of minimum desirable standards and the provision of facilities like
health, food, clothing housing, medical allowance, education, insurance, job security, such as to
safeguard his health and protect him against occupational hazards. The worker should also be
equipped with necessary training and a certain level of general education.
Reading room, circulating library, visual education; literary classes, adult education,
social education; daily news review; factory news bulletin; cooperation with workers in
education services.
Welfare facilities may also be categorized as (a) intra-mural and (b) extra-mural.
35
2.1.4 INTRA-MURAL FACILITIES
Intra-mural activities consist of facilities provided within the factories and include
medical facilities, compensation for accidents, provision of safety measures, activities relating to
improving of employment, and the like.
Extra-mural activities cover the services and facilities provided outside the factory such
as housing accommodation, indoor and outdoor recreational facilities, amusement and sports,
educational facilities for adults and children and the like.
It may be stated that the welfare activities may be provided by the employer, the
government, non-government organizations and the trade unions. What employers provided will
be stated later, the activities undertaken by other agencies are mentioned here.
With a view to making it mandatory for employers, to provide certain welfare for their
employees, the government of India has enacted several laws from time. These laws are the
factories act, 1948; the mines act, 1952; the plantation labour act 1951; the bid and cigar workers
(conditions of employment) act 1966; and the contract labour (regulation and abolition) act,
1970. another significant step taken by the central government has been established in coal
,mica, iron-ore, limestone and dolomite mines. The welfare activities covered by these funds
include housing, medical, educational and recreational facilities for employees and their
dependents.
Labour union have contributed their share for the betterment of the employees. Mention
may be made here of the textile labour association of headband and the railway men’s union and
the mazdoor sabha of kanpur, which have rendered invaluable services in the field of labour
welfare. The welfare activities of the textile labour association. Ahmedabad,are worth nothing.
36
2.1.8 WELFARE WORK BY VOLUNTARY AGENCIES
Many voluntary social-service agencies have been doing useful labour-welfare work.
Mention may be made of the Bombay social service league, the seva sadan society, the maternity
and infant welfare association, the YMCA, the depressed classes mission society and the
women’s institute of Bengal. The welfare activities of these organization of recreation and
sports for the working class.
Welfare activities may also be classified into (i) statutory and (ii) non-statutory
provision.
Section 42 to 50 of the factories act of 1948, deal with provisions for the welfare of the
workers.
37
For every 150 workers, there must be readily accessible and well equipped first – aid box.
This box must contain the prescribed contents and it must be in charge of a responsible person
who holds a certificate in first – aid. Where more than 500 workers are employed an ambulance
room shall be provided and maintained.
7) Lighting sec(17)
The RBL must be employed in located things is sight. In every part of a manufacturing
process where workers are working or passing, there provided and maintained sufficient and
suitable light, natural artificial both.
The RBL working place is so hard, employees are need to emphasize the important of
providing liberals supply of cool and pure water. The lay down that in every places effective
arrangement must be made to provide and main at suitable place conveniently situated for all
workers employed there in a sufficient supply of drinking water. The water pumps are
situating for five places in factory.
1) Educational Facilities
Educational facilities are important that the children of the workers should be provided
with educational facilities.
38
2) Medical Facilities
Employers, whether in private or in public sectors have been providing medical facilities
for their workers and their families. Besides general medical treatment and health-care, separate
arrangements for specialist treatment for diseases like T.B. cancer, leprosy, and mental disease.
3) Transport Facilities
Transport facilities to workers residing at a long distance are essential to relieve them
from strain and anxiety. Such facilities also provide greater opportunity for relaxation and
recreation and help in reducing the rater of absenteeism.
4) Recreation Facilities
Recreation facilities afford the worker an opportunity to develop his sense of physical
and mental discipline. It has an important bearing on the individual’s personality as well as his
capacity to contribute to social development.
5) Housing Facilities
Some of the industrial employers both in public and private sector have provided housing
facilities to their employees. The company also renders assistance to the co-operative housing
societies formed by its employees.
DISPENSARY
With the premises of the mill, they provided, first- aid facility in dispensary. They are
providing 24 hours service with duty doctors, pharmacy, bed facilities and ambulance van in case
of emergency. This provided for the workers and his family members.

1) EMPLOYEE WELFARE
By Regina bare
Employee welfare program is based on the management policy which is aimed shaping
perfect employees. There fore the concept of employee welfare includes to aspects namely
physical &mental welfare.
40
1. applications of merit system or work performance system as the basis for employee
rewarding.
2. providing the retired employees with the old age allowance.
3. employee insurance program to provide the employee with better security.
4. improvement in health security for the employee’s and their families so that they can
work confidently and productively.
41
Design/methodology/approach – Using web-based survey methodology, a US financial
services firm is used to evaluate the relationship between the use of career-focused employee
transfer criteria and key employee attitudes.
Findings – The study finds that the use of career-focused processes are positively related
to employees' developmental opportunity satisfaction and perceived support for career
development. Regression analyses finds that these two attitudes mediate the positive relationship
between the use of career-focused transfer criteria and perceived organization support (POS).
Other research efforts (e.g. Allen and Shore) have linked POS to a variety of positive outcomes,
including lower employee turnover. Past research, however, has not considered how specific
human resource practices can be the basis for the development of key attitudes.
To promote a higher type of citizenship, to insure to every child born in Kansas a record of
birth, an equal share in the paternal care of the government and a recognition of its potential
worth as a future citizen, I recommend the establishment of a division of child hygiene as a part
42
of the State Board of Health. This new division should take into account the circularizing of the
expectant mother who applies for information, the care of the new-born babe, and the well-being,
In the same general line of public welfare, I recommend the enactment of laws on the
following subjects:
1. To assist needy and worthy mothers by a compensation which shall enable them to care for
dependent minor children at home instead of their being cared for in institutions.
3. To provide for the paying of convicts' earnings to their department families, after a sufficient
sum is deducted for the convict's maintenance.
4. To give organized labor the right to select the officers of the State Labor Bureau.
5. To help solve the problem of the unemployed by extending the activities of the free
employment bureau.
6. To strengthen the workmen's compensation act for the better protection of the workers.
7. To promote the safety and safeguard the interests of railroad men and the traveling public.
The meaning of labour welfare may be made more clear more by listing the activities which
are referred to as welfare measures.
43
A comprehensive list of welfare activities is given by moorthy in his monumental work on
labour welfare. He divides welfare measures into two broad groups, namely.
Control of effluents.
Convenience and comfort during work. That is, operatives posture, seating arrangements.
Distribution of work hours and provision for rest hours, meal times and breaks.
Supply of necessary beverages and p-ills and tables, that is salt tablets, milk, soda.
2) Conveniences:
Urinals and lavatories, wash basin, bathrooms, provision for spittoons, waste disposal.
44
Management of worker’s cloak rooms, rest rooms, reading rooms, reading room and
library.
Bank.
Transport.
Health and medical services, dispensary, emergency ward, out-patient and inpatient
care, family visiting; family planning.
Recreation: games; clubs; craft centers; cultural programmers, that is, music clubs;
interest and hobby circles; festival celebrations; study circles, reading room and
library; open air theatre; swimming pool; athletics, gymnasia.
CHAPTER III
45
To adopt suitable measures for the improvement of employee performance.
To find the level of satisfaction of employee about the facilities given by the company.
The study helps to find the satisfaction level of welfare measure provided.
46
This study gives a good support for improving the performance of employees.

CHAPTER VII
CONCLUSION
Employers are more than willing to understand the employee’s requirement and design their
welfare packages and employee benefits programmers accordingly. The time for them to
understand the changes in employee needs and bridge the gap. Employers should understand
what employees want and compensate them accordingly.
What employee want :
Proper environment

Thus the focus of welfare polity should be on these factors. If the organizations want to
achieve the aim of attracting and retaining suitable talent from the labour market.
