8. Introduction to Code
• In Series of Codes this code is the last one and important one.
Overall 13 laws simplified in this code. Those are:
1) The Factories Act, 1948;
2) The Plantations Labour Act, 1951;
3) The Mines Act, 1952;
4) The Working Journalists and other Newspaper Employees (Conditions of
Service) and Miscellaneous Provisions Act, 1955;
5) The Working Journalists (Fixation of Rates of Wages) Act, 1958;
6) The Motor Transport Workers Act, 1961;
7) The Beedi and Cigar Workers (Conditions of Employment) Act, 1966;

9. Introduction to Code
8) The Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970;
9) The Sales Promotion Employees (Conditions of Service) Act, 1976;
10) The Inter-State Migrant Workmen (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of
Service) Act, 1979;
11) The Cine-Workers and Cinema Theatre Workers (Regulation of Employment) Act,
1981;
12) The Dock Workers (Safety, Health and Welfare) Act, 1986;
13) The Building and Other Construction Workers (Regulation of Employment and
Conditions of Service) Act, 1996.
And in all 4 labour codes this code is vast and diversified, because various classes of
employments was brought together and redefined their respective laws and merge it in
way of uniformity. The basic advantage of the unifications is to bring harmonious
relationship among management and workforce as reduce the loopholes and stigma
which are became threat to Economy and nation itself.

10. Occupational safety, health and working conditions World
and Indian Scenario.
As I explained in earlier videos that this codes classification was made as per the
Workforce perceptions and process of management. This code has made up on basic
occupational safety, health and working conditions which plays major roles in
Industrial culture, and discipline system of operations. These three words are small to
pronounce but very hard and tough to manage and enforce with utmost priority. If
there is any miss-proportionate while applying these rules will bring organisation down
in terms of money, machine and men.
In world context: OSH is a big deal to handle for ILO in cooperation with WHO. In the
time of Industrial revolution the concept of Worker health at workplace got lime
lighted. In early nineteenth century (1802) in UK the factories act was concern about
poor working conditions of Children under textile mills. In 1833 UK created a dedicated
profession for Factory Inspectorate in this act limited the duties to policing only. The
same was enhanced in 1844 giving several checking, inspecting powers to inspector as
well as guarding of machinery only to textile industry.

11. Occupational safety, health and working conditions World
and Indian Scenario.
In 1840 Royal Commission of Labour reported that because of poor working conditions
in Mines there is high frequency of Accidents occurring due to this effect the Mines act
1842 was formulated In that separate inspectorate and collieries established and by
1850 Inspectors were enable to enter the premises at their discretion.
“Otto Von Bismarck” was the first person to start Social Insurance in the year 1833 and
the first workmen compensation act was formed in the year 1884 these two acts
became pioneer in world

12. Occupational safety, health and working conditions World
and Indian Scenario.
In India: As explained earlier that greatest counties will have greatest challenges also,
Our country faced the British colonial rules which formulated some extraordinary laws
pertaining to labour in that time and still we are following the same with limited
changes.
The poor working conditions and Unemployment + poverty are the best couples in
those times was initiated the need to birth of Occupational safety, health and working
conditions in India.
Textile industry was the main industry in those days, faced the challenges as poor
working conditions, low wages if it comes to health of workers is zero. In this situation ,
Maj. Moore the inspector & chief of factories for Bombay Cotton department reported
in the year 1872 to British India Government for improvement of working conditions in
factories / industries especially for women and child workers.
Lord Rippon was the first person to formulate the first factories act in India in the year
1881 based on the report by Maj. Moore in this act conditions of working of Child and
Women was improved, 4 holidays of a month, 9 hours of working in day was
incorporated. Hence, this act will call as “Mother of Indian Labour Legislations”

13. Occupational safety, health and working conditions World
and Indian Scenario.
In the year 1891 another amendment took place in this act to compulsory rest interval
of half an hour. After that this act was amended a dozen times by increasing
improvements on working conditions as well as eradicate the evil of pervasive
conditions.
The Royal Commission on Labour 1929 also played a crucial role to improve the
working conditions of Plantation Labour in India.

construction and Dock workers.

employments.

 Health and Safety has its own impact on Employee work behaviors and satisfaction if
any friction in this will lead the organization or employees to downward in
improvement.
 Code is good and nice in its nature but the actual practicable conditions and
achievements will reflect the performance of Code.
 Wages, Social Security, IR and OSH these are interdependent on each other if any
differences grow in between four the significance of Labour culture / Industrial culture
will suffer badly.
 In all 4 codes my opinion Occupational Safety, Health and working conditions are the
key to success of any industry. One will think about safety, health welfare if he/she in
the job after that only other components will strive in our mind.
 The Rules of this code was prepared and put on before general public for suggestions
