Understanding State Variations in Schedule Employments: Can You Share Lists for Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Delhi, and Haryana?

Dear seniors, we all know the state government can designate certain employments as Schedule Employments under Part 1 (Schedule) by the power conferred under Section 27 of the Minimum Wages Act.

State Variations in Schedule Employments

1. Does it vary from state to state? (Number of Schedule Employments and nature of Schedule Employment)

Request for Schedule Employment Lists

2. Could anyone please share the Schedule Employment List for the following states: Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Delhi, and Haryana?

Thank you.

Point one: Yes, it differs from state to state.

Point two: Please look into the link below for details about Tamil Nadu state: Government of Tamil Nadu - Labour Department

The wages notifications and schedules should be available on most of the State Government's labor department websites. The paycheck website would also have information. For authentic information, you may contact the Labor Law Reporter.

The State Governments have been empowered under Section 27 of the Minimum Wages Act, 1948, to add to either part of the schedule any employment as per the prevailing local conditions. I am sharing information on the minimum rates of wages and scheduled employments declared by the NCT of Delhi and the State of Haryana.

As other members have mentioned, the number of scheduled employments can vary among the different states. Section 3(1-A) gives the government the discretion to set minimum wages even for employments with fewer than 1,000 employees.

Dear Professionals, could anyone please provide me with information on the minimum wages to be paid as of today (2014) in Tamil Nadu Roller Flour Mills?
