IMPORTANCE OF WELFARE WORK IN INDIA
Labour welfare work got importance because of the following reasons.
1) the welfare activities influence the sentiments of the workers .when worker feels that the
employers and the state are interested in their happiness ,his tendency to grouse and
grumble will steadily disappear. The development of such feeling paves the way for
industrial peace.
2) the provision of various welfare measures makes the worker realize that they also some
stake in the undertaking in which they are engaged and so think thrice before taking any
reckless action which might prejudice the interest of undertaking
3) The welfare measures like cheap food in canteens, free medical and educational facilities
etc. Indirectly increase industrial dispute the real income of the workers. Hence they try to
avoid industrial dispute , as far as possible and do not go on strikes on flimsy grounds
.
4) Welfare activities will go a long way to better the mental and moral health of workers by
reducing the incidence of vices of industrialization.
5) Welfare activities will reduce labour turnover and absenteeism and create permanent settled
labour force by making service attractive to the labour.
6) Welfare measures will improve the physique , intelligence morality and standard of living

PRINCIPLES OF LABOUR WELFARE
Certain fundamental considerations are involved in the concept of labour welfare. The
following are the more important among them.
1. Social responsibility of industry
This principle is based on the social conception of industry and its role in the society that is,
the understanding that social responsibility of the state is manifested through industry. It is
assumed that labour welfare is an expression of industry‟s duty towards its employees. Social
responsibility means that the obligation of the industry to pursue those policies, to take such
decisions, and to follow those lines of action which are desirable in terms of the objectives and
values currently obtaining in the society. The values of the Indian community are enshrined in
the constitution of the country. Labour welfare is not embroidery on capitalism nor the external
dressing of an exploitative management; rather, it is an expression of the assumption by industry
of its responsibility for its employees (Maurice Bruce, 1961). Industry is expected to win the co-
operation of the workers, provide them security of employment, fair wage, and equal opportunity
for personal growth and advancement, and make welfare facilities available to them.
2. Democratic values
The principle of democratic values of labour welfare concedes that workers may have certain
unmet needs for no fault of their own, that industry has an obligation to render them help in
gratifying those needs, and that workers have a right of determining the manner in which these
needs can be met and of participating in the administration of the mechanism of need
gratification. The underlying assumption to this approach is that the worker is a mature and
rational individual who is capable of taking decisions for him/her.
3. Adequacy of wages
The third principle of labour welfare is adequacy of wages; it implies that labour welfare
measures are not a substitute for wages. It will be wrong to argue that since workers are given a
variety of labour welfare services, they need be paid only low wages. Right to adequate wage is
beyond dispute.
4. Efficiency
The fourth principle of labour welfare lays stress on the dictum that to cultivate welfare is to
cultivate efficiency. Even those who deny any social responsibility for industry do accept that an
MBA(HRM) Page 24
enterprise must introduce all such labour welfare measures which promote efficiency (Marshall,
1950). It has been often mentioned that workers‟ education and training, housing, and diet are the
three most important aspects of labour welfare, which always accentuate labour efficiency. Re-
personalization Since industrial organization is rigid and impersonal, the goal of welfare in
industry is the enrichment and growth of human personality. The labour welfare movement seeks
to bring cheer, comfort, and warmth in the human relationship by treating man as an individual,
with quiet distinct needs and aspirations. Social and cultural programmers, recreation and other
measures designed after taking into consideration the workers‟ interests go a long way in
counteracting the effects of monotony, boredom, and cheerlessness.
5. Co-responsibility
The fifth principle of labour welfare recognizes that the responsibility for labour welfare lies
on both employers and workers and not on employers alone (Mouthy, 1958). Labour welfare
measures are likely to be of little success unless mutuality of interest and responsibilities are
accepted and understood by both the parties, in particular the quality of responsibility at the
attitudinal and organizational level.
Totality of welfare The final principle of labour welfare is that the concept of labour welfare
must permeate throughout the hierarchy of an organization, and accepted by all levels of
functionaries in the enterprise.
SCOPE OF LABOUR WELFARE WORK
It is somewhat difficult to accurately lay down the scope of labour welfare work, especially
because of the fact that labour class is composed of dynamic individuals with complex needs. In
a world of changing values, where ideologies are rapidly undergoing transformation, rigid
statements about the field of labour welfare need to be revised. Labour welfare work is
increasing with the growing knowledge and experience of techniques. An able welfare officer
MBA(HRM) Page 25
would, therefore, include in his welfare programmed the activities that would be conducive to the
well-being of the worker and his family. The test of the welfare activity is that it removes,
directly or indirectly, any hindrance, physical or mental of the worker and restores to him the
peace and joy of living the welfare work embraces the worker and his family The following list,
which is by no means exhaustive, gives the items under which welfare work should be conducted
inside and outside the work place:
1) Conditions of work environment:
The workshop sanitation and cleanliness, humidity, ventilation, lighting, elimination of dust,
smoke, fumes and gases, convenience and comfort during work, operative postures, sitting
arrangements etc; distribution of work hours and provision for rest times, breaks and workmen‟s
safety measures.
2) Workers health services:
These should include factory health centre; medical examination of workers, factory
dispensary and clinic for general treatment; infant welfare; women‟s general education; workers
recreation facilities; education, etc;
3) Labor welfare programmed:
These should cover factory council consisting of representatives of labor and employers;
social welfare departments; interview and vocational testing; employment, follow-up, research
bureau; workmen‟s arbitration council.
4) Labor’s Economic welfare programmed:
These should include co-operatives or fair price shops for consumer necessities; co-operative
credit society, thrift schemes and savings bank; health insurance; employment bureau; etc.
MBA(HRM) Page 26
CLASSIFICATION OF LABOUR ACTIVITIES :
The labour Welfare activities may be classified as under:
1) statutory:
Every welfare promotes the welfare the labour by securing and protecting a social
order in which justice, social, economical, political, confirms with all the institutions of the
natural life. For this some legislation are passed and it is essential for all the employers to follow
the provisions of the Acts and Rules. These legislative measures generally regulate working
conditions, minimum wages, safety and sanitation. Such statutory provisions are gradually
increasing with the industrial development in the countries.
2) voluntary:
Under voluntary welfare, all those activities are including which are undertaken by the
employees for their workers at their own. These activities are not statutory but the employees
undertake these activities because they increase the efficiency of the workers and maintain the
industrial peace.
3) Mutual :
Mutual welfare activities are those activities which are initiated by the workers for their
betterment .Welfare activities undertaken by the trade unions are included under this head.
Labour welfare activities may be further classified under two heads:
1) Intra Mural Activities :
Intra mural activities are those amenities and services which have been provided
by the employers inside the factories e.g. sanitary conditions ,medical facilities ,shelter
,canteens etc. These activities are the part of working conditions.
2) Extra Mural Activities :
Extra mural activities are those amenities and services which are available in the
workers outside the factory e.g. housing, medical facilities, education, recreation etc.

MERTIS AND DEMERITS OF WELFARE MEASURES:
Employee welfare is justified for several reasons. It is desirable to recollect the services of
a typical worker in this context.
His/her employee helps dig and haul coal from the depths of the earth to fetch and refine oil , to
build dams and reservoirs, to lay pipes, canals, railway lines and roads. His/her employee
creates and transmits power, and through various phases of manufacturing, patterns raw material
into finished products of necessity as well as luxury.
Welfare may help minimize social evils, such as alcoholism, gambling, prostitution,
drug addiction and the like.
A worker is likely to fall a victim to any of these if he /she is dissatisfied or frustrated. Welfare
facilities tend to make the worker happy, cheerful and confident looking.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
►INTRODUCTION & MEANING OF RESEARCH
MEANING OF RESEARCH:
Research in common parlance refers to a search for knowledge. Once can also define
research as a scientific systematic search for pertinent information on a specific topic. In fact,
research is an art of scientific investigation. The Advanced Learner‟s Dictionary of Current
English lays down the meaning of research as “a careful investigation or inquiry especially
through search for new facts in any branch of knowledge.” Some people consider research as a
movement, a movement from the known to the unknown. It is actually a voyage of discovery.
We all possess the vital instinct of inquisitiveness for when the unknown confronts us, we
wonder and our inquisitiveness makes us probe and attain full and fuller understanding of the
unknown. This inquisitiveness is the mother of all knowledge and the method, which man
employs for obtaining the knowledge of whatever the unknown, can be termed as research.
Definition of Research:
According to Redman and Mory:
Research means “systematized effort to gain new knowledge.”
