Parliament Friday passed a bill which simplifies labour laws for establishments employing up to 40 workers.
The
Labour Laws (Exemption from Furnishing Returns and Maintaining
Registers by Certain Establishments) Amendment Bill, 2011, was approved
by the Lok Sabha after rejection of amendments moved by Trinamool
Congress' Saugata Roy.
The bill, which was passed by the Rajya
Sabha Tuesday, amends the Labour Laws (Exemption from Furnishing Returns
and Maintaining Registers by Certain Establishments) Amendment and
Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1988, which defines small establishments
as any place which employs between 10 and 19 people on any day of the
preceding 12 months.
It amends the definition of "small establishment" to cover establishments that employ between 10 and 40 people.
Under
the existing act, these establishments are exempted from furnishing
returns and maintaining registers under certain labour laws.
Moving
the bill for consideration and passage, Minister of State for Labour
and Employment Bandaru Dattatreya said the government was committed to
protect the interests of workers in the unorganised sector.
