Executive Summary

“The Building and Other Construction Workers (Regulation Of Employment And

Conditions Of Service) Act” was enforced in the year 2002 in Madhya Pradesh and The

Building and Other Construction Workers Board (BOCW board) was established in the year

2003.The Board was constituted with the objective to conduct welfare programmes/schemes

for those workers working in factories or any other commercial organizations having worker

strength of ten employees.Registration of construction labour is done with the Board and

various welfare schemes benefits are given individually and jointly. Various Welfare schemes

are run through the CESS amount collected from construction employer .

The cess is levied at a rate not exceeding two percent of the cost of construction

incurred by an employer through CESS act1996. Kerala board is the oldest which (28

years) followed by Tamilnadu ( 22 years) and then Madhya Pradesh (16 years old).

The cess amount is being regularly collected and there has been a decrease in Cess amount

from 2014-2015 to 2017-2018 from 303.58 crores to 281.95 crores in the year 2017-

2018.Highest Cess amount was received in the year 2016-2017 of 347.0 crores.

There has been a decrease in the difference between Cess Collection and its use since

2015 to 2018.There has been marked decline in the difference amount in the years 2016-2017

to 2017-2018 from 208.22 crores to 71.94 crores.Hence it’s a positive step taken by

government in the recent years as BOCW registered labourers are getting benefitted by

various schemes.

In terms of CESS collection districts Bhopal, Indore and

Jabalpur,Gwalior,Sagar,Khargone,Chhindwara,Dhar,Khandwa and Sigrauli are in top

10 districts .Pithampur,Malanpur(Bhind) and Agar Malwa are in the bottom 10 districts in

terms of Collection of Cess.In Pithampur and Malanpur(Bhind)there is no CESS

Collection.

Among the of top 10 highest CESS Collecting districts.Singrauli,Khandwa and

Chhindwara districts are in the top three districts which are performing good as there

is less difference between CESS Collection and expenditure.

Neemuch, Balaghat, Jhabua are in the top three districts which is performing

satisfactory where expenditure is more than the CESS Collection.Neemuch is performing

the best as it has the highest number of beneficiaries. Damoh,Rajgarh and Harda are the

top 3 districts in this category of performance in a satisfactory manner where the

difference between CESS collection and distribution is the minimal.

Bhopal and Indore districts have highest difference in terms of CESS Collection and

Distribution. Bhopal,Indore and Jabalpur are the districts where CESS Collection is among

the top 3 districts whereas the expenditure in terms of received benefit to registered

beneficiaries is very less.


4

Analyzing the Cess Collection amount in other states Karnataka Board has the highest

amount of about 2225 Crores followed by Delhi Board 1667 Crores and Uttar Pradesh about

1580 Crores.

MadhyaPradesh ranks 6th among nine selected states in the study in terms of the

difference between Cess collection and its distribution from lowest difference to highest

difference and 2nd in terms of expenditure as per the data of the year 2015.

Uttar Pradesh has the highest number (30Lakhs) of registered labour followed by Madhya

Pradesh which has (24Lakhs) and Tamilnadu at third with (23Lakhs MadhyaPradesh has the

Highest number of schemes (23) followed by Uttar Pradesh (20 schemes) and Orissa of 17

schemes as per the data of the year 2015.

Hence MadhyaPradesh state is performing well in terms of expenditure and number of

schemes meant for construction labourers by BOCW seeing the data of other nine

states.

Since 2013-2014 there has been a decrease in the number of registered labour from 168225 to

136857 labourers but there has been a manifold increase between the years 2016-2017 to

2017-2018 from 53010 labourers to 136857 with an increase of 83847 labourers in a year.

Uttar Pradesh and Delhi have good progressive and Gender Sensitive schemes.In Uttar

Pradesh under “Balika Aashirwaad” scheme on the birth of a Girl Child Rs.25,000 is

given and disabled girl child gets Rs.50,000.MadhyaPradesh has separate provisions of

educational of Girl Children as compared to male child from 1st to Post Graduation level.

MadhyaPradesh has a good provision related to disability of the labour at par with

scheme provision of Uttar Pradesh which has the highest provision but there is no provision

of pension for disabled labour as available in Uttar Pradesh and Delhi.In Madhya Pradesh

there is Skill Building Training for labourers and the Dependent family members of

labourers as well. Skill building of Dependent family members is not there in other states.

86% of the respondents had information of the Schemes run by BOCW.This response

doesn’t ensure that they had information of all schemes.Highest respondents 22% had

information on marriage assistance scheme of registered labour followed by 21% on

maternity benefit scheme and 18% on medical assistance scheme and 16% on educational

assistance.

On the basis of 400 samples it was found that 38% respondents faced problems in

registration process.The respondents did not had information about all the required

documents. In 52% of respondents the registration was done within one month and

47% of the respondent’s registration took more than time from one month to six

months and 1% respondents stated more than six months.This clearly indicates

negligence by officials in verification of documents or lack of documents as proof to be

submitted by labourers to meet out the criteria’s,information of all the schemes.Out of the

respondents who faced problem in registration 40% stated that they had to go to the

ofice repeated number of times and 28% stated that officials did not give correct

information on required document and 32% of the respondents stated demand of

money(bribe) by officials.

There is ignorance about the Online Application for the Registration of labour as only

1% of the respondents opted for Online Registration.They approached government

departments officials directly such as Commissioner N. Nigam/N.Palika/ N. Parishad and

CEO Janpad Panchayat .

31% respondents faced problem in taking benefit of these schemes out of the 86% of the

respondents who had applied for any of the schemes.91% respondents got benefit of

schemes out of which 58% respondents got wedding Assistance benefit , followed by 13%

under Maternity Benefit and 6% on Educational benefit ,4% Medical assistance ,12%

respondents recieved assistance in purchase of cycle. Only 1% beneficiary received

assistance for Toilet Construction scheme and two wheeler purchase scheme.

76% beneficiaries did not have information on required documents, 22% respondents

shared that they needed to go to the office several times as they were called by officials

again and again and 2% respondent stated that bribe was demanded by officials.

3% of respondents shared that there should be a reduction in the documents needed for

registration.2% of the respondents shared that information should be shared in Mobile of the

registered labour who had applied for schemes about the status of their application and reason

for number doing the registration process. The other type of suggestions that were given were

of appointment of Grievance redressal officer, Establishment of Helpline Number,

Registration at Panchayat level , & bribe remains a problem that needs to be addressed. There

is a need for Publicity of the online facility available option of Registration of labour.

Madhya Pradesh related Data (till May 2018)

25,94,030 labourers are registered with the Labour Board, Madhya Pradesh. (Upto

May 2018 )

22 welfare schemes are being operated with the cess amount meant for Individual

beneficiary.Total 39,074,99 Beneficiaries have availed benefits of schemes meant

for Individuals.

In addition to it 32,583 labourers underwent Skill building training,128 were

benefitted out of the Construction labourers shed scheme,45 ,Rain Basera were

constructed,4 Shramodaya Vidhyalaya were established. So the Total number of

Beneficiaries is 39,40,259.

Around Rs 910.59 crores have been disbursed under various schemes.(Individual 22

schemes ).Rs1093.98 Crores spent on various schemes meant for labourers including

training,shed,rainbasera and Shramodaya Vidhyalaya .Rs 1181.51 crores total

expenses done by BOCW which includes IEC on schemes(Rs 27 Crores) and other

administrative expenses.

CESS Collection amount Rs 2415.30 Crores.

Rationale of the study

Construction workers are one of the most vulnerable segments of the unorganized sector

labour in India.Their work is of temporary nature, the relationship between employer and the

employee is temporary and working hours are uncertain. Basic amenities and welfare

facilities provided to these workers are also inadequate. The nature of job is such that the risk

to life and limb is also inherent. In the absence of adequate statutory provisions it is difficult

to get the requisite information regarding the number and nature of accidents as well as to fix

responsibility or to take corrective measures. Hence the BOCW Act was passed and its

implementation was taken up by different states at different points of time.

But even after 17 years of the Act, the distribution of benefits is skewed and many workers

continue to be outside the social security net. Hence there is a need to re-examine the

processes and see if there requires any change in the present system apart from seeing the

schemes in other states. The study was conceived with this objective in view.


8

Objectives

1) To study the process of registration of labour in unorganized sector specifically under

the

BOCW ACT 2002 and to identify the bottlenecks if any.

2) To assess the level of awareness of the labour regarding various schemes under this act

in Madhya Pradesh.

3) To explore the reach of various schemes under this act in different districts of MP.

4) To do a Secondary data analysis of Cess Collection and its Distribution for various

schemes meant for the registered labourers under this act in other states( Kerala,

Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Orissa, Delhi,Punjab and UP vis a vis Madhya

Pradesh.) and to understand the reasons of their good performance.

Methodology

were looked into. Based on them a pre-designed and pre-validated interview schedule was

administered to the beneficiaries.

28

Recommendations

1.There should be sustained increase in CESS Collection and its distribution:The cess

amount is being regularly collected and there has been a decrease in Cess amount from 2014-

2015 to 2017-2018 from 303.58 crores to 281.95 crores in the year 2017-2018.There has been

an increase in CESS amount only in the year 2016-2017 of 347.0 crores. The contribution

mechanisms need to be made more robust for a more sustainable approach. Hence timely

Monitoring needs to be done by officials who collect it.

2.There should a decrease in difference between CESS Collection and distribution in

selected districts of MadhyaPradesh: Bhopal and Indore have highest difference in

terms of Cess Collection and Distribution. These districts should decrease the difference by

ensuring availability of schemes to eligible registered beneficiaries. Timely monitoring needs

to be done in a timely manner so that various timely interventions can be done to reduce these

differences.

3. Special plans should be made of districts where there is no CESS collection: In

Pithampur and Malanpur(Bhind)there is no CESS Collection,hence there is a need of

understanding the reasons behind it so that preventive timely actions can be taken.

4. Publicity of all schemes of BOCW and availing its benefits by registered labour: More

publicity of the available schemes followed by registration of labourers and clarity in the

required document to avail these schemes as among various 22 schemes majority of the

beneficiaries are of Maternity and Wedding assistance scheme.The Department needs to

increase its visibility through better structured IEC programmes. More information needs to

be made through Lok Sewa Kendras or M.P Online as there is less information on this

process.The Board may, with the approval of the State Government, open as many field

offices as it may consider necessary for the efficient discharge of its functions under the

Act.This provision can be utilized for opening of field offices at block level to increase the

awareness about various schemes through more intensive IEC.

5. Satisfactory performance indicators of districts needed to be decided and to be done

in a decided period:Satisfactory performance indicators of performance of districts need to

be decided which would compare CESS Collection,distribution and number of beneficiaries

as well.Quarterly analysis needs to be done by each district and needs to be submitted to

BOCW.If we compare it with selected other states MadhyaPradesh state is performing well

in terms of expenditure and number of schemes meant for construction labourers by BOCW

seeing the data of other nine states.MadhyaPradesh can perform better if scheme benefits

are more distributed rather than concentrating only in some schemes.Detailed analysis

of all schemes needs to be done as well.

6.Registration of labour and availing of schemes benefit to be done in a timely manner

and transparency of process: Registration of labour and availing of various entitlements in

a set time limit as it is dependent of the satisfaction of the authorised officer.The primary data

states that registration of labour took around six months as well. In cases of rejection of

application the labour should have information on the time limit of appeal so as to pursue the

matter consistently and hereby reducing corruption.The applicant labour should have

transparent information on his/her process of application and availing of various schemes

amount through notifications in registered mobile no of labour. Reason for Rejection of the


29

application as it is mandatory to inform the reason for rejection of application that too in a

written manner.

Suggestion for Improvement about the Registration Process based on Primary Data

(refer to annexure 2.10) -33% of the respondents shared that there is a need of awareness about Scheme through

Camp, News Paper etc.This information was given majorly by respondents of Sehore.25% of

respondents shared that Registration needs to be done through M.P. Online. This was largely

given by respondents of Jhabua (64%) as physical distance is an issue in this district as there

are remote villages and cities. Inspite of the available system of Online Registration as people

are not aware of this procedure hence the above mentioned percentage of respondents gave

this suggestion.

-There is a need of Publicity of the online available option of Registration of labour. 15%

respondents shared that officials should timely complete the registration process. This

indicates that the respondents didn’t had information of the time limit of 30 days as

prescribed by Act and 14% respondents say that officials do not share clearly the required

documents needed for registration.

-Some 4% respondents indicated the bad behavior of the officials. If we combine both the

percentage it is 33% which is a significant percentage indicating the need of working with

officials in charge of this process by providing them training/orientation or monitoring their

assigned duties in given deadline.

-3% of respondents shared that there should be a reduction in the documents needed for

registration.

-2% of the respondents shared that in information should be shared in Mobile about the status

of their application and reason for number doing the registration process.

-4% of the respondents stated that were given were of appointment of Grievance redressal

officer, Establishment of Helpline Number, Registration at Panchayat level & Bribe to

be reduced.

7. MadhyaPradesh should increase its available scheme of Maternal Assistance scheme

from 1400 and 1000 rupees in Rural and Urban respectively available : Madhya Pradesh

should try to analyze and adopt the positive aspects of various schemes available in other

states. Delhi and Uttar Pradesh have good package.Rs.30,000 is paid in Delhi.This would be

helpful as Maternal and Infant Mortality rate is high in MadhyaPradesh.This can be given

from the first trimester as well in form of Nutrition assistance or after Child Birth in the

Neonatal period. It can introduce pension related schemes upon Disability of labour and

Schemes specifically meant for the Girl Child development as available in Uttar

Pradesh.

8. Madhyapradesh should have pension scheme of labourers:Currently MadhyaPradesh

government doesn’t have a pension scheme for labourers.

9.More proactive role of CESS officer and labour officials: The Cess officer should

mention the correct number of labourers during inspection and all required register and being

filled by Employee/Contractor. Overseeing to be done of Muster roll, wages register

deduction register, Overtime Register and issue of wage books and service certificates as per

section 241 of the BOCW act by Chief inspector of Board.
