As per the Labour Code 2019, the Standing Order is applicable to the manufacturing industry if the number of workmen is 100 or more. If it is less than 100, then the Model S.O. is applicable. However, in our industry, the number of workmen is 80, and we are currently following the Certified S.O.
Can any of our esteemed readers please clarify whether we should follow the Model S.O. or continue to follow the Certified S.O.?
