Dear Shruti, to know the responsibilities of a Welfare Officer, please refer to The Factories Act, 1948, and the rules prescribed in the Factories Rules of your state under this act. You may visit the website below to view The Factories Act, 1948: http://www.dgfasli.nic.in/statutes5.htm
As you mentioned that you're in an IT firm, first, you should know whether the firm is covered under the Factories Act. Then, determine if it is considered an establishment. After that, you can proceed with the welfare activities.
