Dear Friends,
Many thanks for congratulating me on my lecture and for your appreciation. I always use this platform to enhance my knowledge by sharing whatever I have with all of you. I am not claiming to be an expert. I have gained a lot of knowledge by interacting with you, reading various posts, and participating in discussions. This forum has provided me with so much. I feel duty-bound to give back to this forum what has been given to me. By doing so, I will not lose anything but will certainly add to my knowledge. Knowledge is something that does not diminish upon distribution; it is the only thing in the universe that remains constant when shared. Therefore, I am sharing the PowerPoint presentation (PPT) that I used during my talk. Please note that I used minimal PPT slides.
Your suggestions are most welcome.

Dear Sir,
Thank you for imparting the knowledge of practicality about various acts and laws. I hope that you continue to do the same. Even though I haven't seen or heard you, the feeling of sharing knowledge is tremendous. I would like to quote a few words said by our father of the nation, "The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others" - MKG.
Warm Regards,

Sri Korgaonkar,
Congratulations! It is a nice, simple presentation made for easy understanding. The calculations in EC Act also provide guidance to many HR professionals who need to work out compensation payable in certain situations. The presentations are like a ready reckoner and can be a helpful tool to present to seniors for implementation in factories or other establishments.
It is timely, and thank you once again for presenting it on cite HR for the benefit of all.

Narendra Modi's Government, on Wednesday, 5/08/2014, cleared proposals to amend three colonial-era labor laws. The proposed amendments include 54 changes in the Factories Act of 1948, the Apprenticeship Act of 1961, and the Labor Laws (Exemption from furnishing returns and maintaining registers by certain establishments of 1988).
The Union Cabinet has approved these changes, and the Government will now present them in Parliament. Given its majority, approval is expected without facing significant challenges. The amendments aim to allow women to work night shifts with adequate safety measures and ensure transportation after work. Additionally, the proposed changes seek to increase overtime hours from the current limit of 50 hours per quarter to 100 hours. With state government approval, this may be increased to a maximum of 125 hours per quarter.
The amendments also focus on providing safer working conditions for employees in hazardous environments, including canteen facilities. For instance, factories with 200 or more workers must offer canteen facilities, down from the previous requirement of 250 workers. Moreover, shelters, restrooms, and lunchrooms are mandated in factories with 75 or more workers, as opposed to the prior stipulation of 150 workers. Pregnant women and physically handicapped individuals are to be protected from being assigned to machinery-in-motion. The eligibility for annual leave-with-wages entitlement has been reduced to 90 days from the previous 240 days.
The Apprenticeship Act of 1961 will eliminate the clause that allows employers to be arrested for not implementing the Act. Additionally, 500 new trades will be added to the existing 238, and companies may introduce new trades without waiting for central notification.
Under the Factories Act of 1948, worker overtime will double to 100 hours per quarter. Safer conditions for employees in hazardous environments, canteen facilities for factories with 75 or more workers, and provisions for women working night shifts with safety measures are highlighted. Pregnant women and physically handicapped individuals are safeguarded from machinery-in-motion assignments.
The Labor Laws Act of 1988 will grant exemptions to small firms with up to 40 workers, as opposed to the current 10, from filing compliance reports. The government is also contemplating amendments to the Child Labor (Regulation and Abolition) Act of 1986 and the Minimum Wages Act of 1948.
The clause that allowed employers to be imprisoned for not implementing the Apprenticeship Act will be removed, with a proposed fine of Rs 500 per apprenticeship month shortfall. E-Records will be maintained electronically, and various worker categories will be included under the Apprenticeship Act.
The changes in the Factories Act of 1948 are expected to facilitate business operations, enhance worker benefits by doubling overtime, and improve safety. Increased apprenticeship opportunities will formalize worker skills, while reduced compliance burdens will benefit small firms. The amendments are aimed at modernizing outdated laws and spurring innovation in labor reforms to address India's unemployment challenges and bridge the formal-informal employment gap. Labor law changes will empower states to tailor regulations to their socio-economic contexts and boost job creation.

Dear Mr. Korgaonkar,
Not only is Mr. Anilji missing, but we senior contributing members are also missing you in the Cite HR forum. Although my association may have been brief in interacting with you on this forum, we have exchanged many views. I anticipate your active participation in this forum to enhance our learning, especially since many laws are being modified and enforced.
Since my retirement from my HR profession, this forum has been the primary way to stay in touch with senior contributing members like yourself, Mr. Banerjee, Mr. Saikumar, Mr. Madhu M., Mr. N. Rao, and others, sharing experiences and learning new things.
