A. Government-Mandated Employee Monitoring and Dispute-Resolution Bodies Under various pieces of labour legislation, the government is required to create administrative networks in all units employing more than 50 employees, to oversee the implementation of workplace benefits and ensure the representation of employee interests. These networks exist simultaneously with the trade unions. An employee may file his or her grievance either through the union or through any network that exists in the workplace (although, as noted above, normally the union takes up matters of common interest to groups of employees and the grievance cell represents single employees with individual grievances). Administrative networks can be created through the following: advisory councils;• advisors, officers, inspectors, etc., appointed under various labour laws;• medical benefit councils and medical officers;• welfare committees and officers;•
Pay boards; conciliation committees and officers;• grievance cells;• workers’ committees; or• consultation committees.• Individuals acting as representatives of employees under the various “welfare mechanisms” listed above have a wide range of powers. These individuals should not be confused with government inspectors and officers affiliated with the Ministry of Labour, who are employed and paid by the appropriate government to implement and enforce the labour laws. In contrast, the welfare officers discussed here are hired and paid by the employer in accordance with rules framed by the government and are essentially semi-official compliance officers, assisting the employer to comply with mandatory welfare and benefit measures established under various labour laws. Although appointed by the employer, these officers are considered government officials charged with proper enforcement of the employee welfare provisions of labour laws. Their duties, qualifications, and conditions of service generally are prescribed by the various state governments, although, as noted above, they are paid by the employer and reviews of their performance are conducted by the employer. Individuals hired by employers under government requirements and acting as representatives of employees have the following powers: they can carry out any inquiry and examination with respect to the interests of the employees;• they can make and implement programs for the benefit of the employees, e.g., provident fund• plans and insurance plans; they can provide for any damages suffered by an employee during the course of employment;• they ensure compliance with provisions of various labour legislation regarding sickness benefits,• maternity benefits, disability benefits, etc.; they are responsible for promoting health programs and measures for the benefit of employees;• they can investigate, or form committees to investigate, complaints filed by employees;• they have the power to call for adoption of proper safety measures;• they can call for, or require medical examination of, employees to check for healthy working• conditions and a healthy environment. As mentioned above, grievance cells are a part of this welfare mechanism for employees. Employees may bring to grievance cells any matter ranging from the employer’s noncompliance with employee welfare provisions to variations in service conditions and health and safety concerns. Because these cells are perceived as helping to solve matters amicably, they are classified as measures for employee welfare and benefit.
