Dear Mr. Santosh,

It is better to find a job in a manufacturing setup. It will help your professional growth. If you join any educational institution, your exposure will decrease, which may affect your career. Think twice and seek advice from experts.

I am not sure how Chandrashekar & Kirti concluded that Santosh Sahu is currently in the Manufacturing sector... he hasn't mentioned anywhere???

HR Generalist can be in any sector.

@ Santosh Sahu-- What is your sector? And have you got the Role & Responsibilities of the job in the College? If Yes, can you summarize them here? If No, on what basis have you given consideration to this job in the first place?

The main problem is that it's generally a trust, not a company. The Industrial Dispute Act, standing orders don't apply, so the management is free to act on its whims and fancies, which leaves you with no protection. Few of the labor compliances apply, and rarely is HR given any credence or respect by the management. However, if you see a challenge worth solving, you can weigh the pros and cons and figure out whether it makes sense for you.

Dear Saswata ji,

May I ask you to elaborate on how a trust is not a company and how the Industrial Dispute Act and Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act do not apply to the college?

Educational Institutions in India

Most educational institutions in India are run by trusts. A few others are operated by Section 25 companies (as per the Companies Act of 1956). Trusts do not have elaborate rules on how they are to be managed, unlike companies. Therefore, they often function like private fiefdoms of the trustees.

Comparison: Private Limited Company vs. Proprietary

Why would you recommend someone work for a private limited company rather than a proprietary? Because you are less likely to be in an unregulated environment. A college is not a factory; it is not covered by the Shops and Establishments Act. It was also clarified by seniors in a previous thread that standing orders do not apply to a college.

Therefore, it is a place where the employee is always at the mercy of the management and trustees. The protection of the law is much less than in a factory.
