GOVERNMENT CLARIFICATION ON AMENDMENT
TO PAYMENT OF WAGES ACT
It is seen from the media reports that there is a
general impression that is being created that the
Government is bringing an amendment to the
Payment of Wages Act to make mandatory the
payment of wages to the workers only through cheque
or accounts transfers. This is not the correct position.
It is clarified that the government proposes to bring
an amendment to Section 6 of the Payment of Wages
Act which will further provide crediting the wages in
the bank account of the employees or payment
through cheque along with the existing provisions of
payment in current coin or currency notes.

manufacturing does not have an adverse effect on our environment.
Ensuring competitiveness of India’s MSME is critical as it will contribute to the overall growth of the
manufacturing sector and the county’s economy. ZED has presented a model where the concept of quality
has a holistic change from tool for compliance to a source of competitiveness. The ZED scheme is an
integrated and holistic certification system that will account for quality, productivity, energy, efficiency,
pollution migration, financial status, human resource and technological depth including design and IPR
in both products and process.
BENEFITS OF ZED CERTIFICATION
Credible recognition of the industry for international customers seeking investment in India.
Streamlined operations and lower cost. Superior quality, reduced rejection and higher revenues. Increased environmental and social benefits. Additional employment generation Other benefits as announced by the Government from time to time. ZED is likely to be made as a benchmark for suppliers to PSUs and Defence Offset.
PARAMETERS
The MSMEs will be assessed and rated on defined enabler and outcome parameters on operational level
indicators. These indicators may include:
Manufacturing Capabilities. Design Capabilities. Quality / Environment / Safety assurance systems. People development and engagement systems for quality and environment. Learning and improvement system. Legal compliances (Hygiene Factor)
An organisation applying to be evaluated on the ZED Maturity Assessment Model shall demonstrate and
will be assessed at the generational level.
HOW IT WORKS

The rating is based on a weighted average level.
The company is encouraged, handheld and trained to achieve a higher level for each parameter and
thus elevate itself in the maturity model.
