5. Other Welfare Measure adopted by Aryan Future aqua Engineering
1. Hours of Work and Adequate Wages:
Some conflicts can arise between the employer and the workers in connection with reduction of
working hours. It is true that long working hours affect the period of rest and sleep and results in
exhaustion, physical and mental strain, which lead to illness. Therefore, the working hours
should be reasonable.
Shorter hours of working increase the productive efficiency of the workers. But reduction of
working hours cannot be encouraged below the limit where the total output is affected. The
company pay wages in relation to the total output. Reduced output means lower wages and lower
standard of living for workers.
Works committees and the welfare department serves, as a happy medium for solution of such
problems by mutual discussions.
6. 2. To Avoid Industrial Fatigue and Rest Pauses:
Fatigue injures health of workers and causes inefficiency and reduction in output. If not relieved
by timely rest pauses, it would cause loss of concentration, reduce in muscular control and
adversely affect the functioning of the eyes and ears and thus result in greater chances of
accidents. Rest pauses serve the most useful purpose of avoiding harmful effect to strain and
fatigue. Therefore, adequate rest pauses for the workers are provided at the proper intervals.
3. To Avoid Accident and Safety Precautions:
7. Safety measures to prevent accident are necessary in the interest of workers as well as
employers. Some of the safety measures adopted by the company are:
(i) At places of dangers, mechanical safeguards and safety devices are provided.
(ii) Protective clothing are supplied to the workers to avoid accidents due to loose dresses.
(iii) Many accidents take place due to over-crowding of working space. Therefore, reasonable
and safe distance between the machines are kept.
(iv) The safety devices are checked from time to time and defects in them are removed before
the actual failure. These greatly help in avoiding accidents.
4. Fire Protection:
For protection against fire, the workshop is made fire proof. Fire alarms and fire extinguishers
are installed at proper places and regular fire drills are held, so that, in case of emergency, every
person in the workshop knows what to do. Special exits and stairs are provided in case of fire.
5. Lighting and Ventilation:
8. Bad lighting can cause accidents and affect the performance of workers. Therefore, the lighting
systems in the are carefully designed.
Good ventilation will result in the supply of constant fresh air and maintain even and bearable
temperature in the workshops. Artificial cooling of hot air during summer providing ‘Khas
Parda’ or desert cooler goes long way in increasing the efficiency and output of the workers.
6. Labour Discontent:
To eliminate labour discontent, following points are noted:
The workers are allowed to have a free expression of their grievances. Their com-plaints are
given due consideration, underground discontentment results a spirit of re-volt and it becomes
more difficult to solve the problem at a delayed stage. Once the grievances are known, these are
settled in just and fair manner.
7. Industrial Housing:
Over-crowding of labour in unhealthy and insanitary surrounding is considered as one of the
evils of the factory system, which affects health and efficiency of workers.
Company have constructed their own cottages in the vicinity of the works and rent these to their
workers. The sanitation and supervision of such colonies are responsibility of the employer.
8. Transport:
9. Where the workers live far away from working sites and ordinary means of transport are not
available at cheap rates, the company provides buses/taxi to carry the workers, who have to
walk for long distance in order to reach factory. The unnecessary strain on walking reflects on
the efficiency of his work and output.

of workers. The workers are encouraged to attend these classes and to send their children to
schools.

11. Rest Rooms:
Properly equipped rest rooms are provided away from the noise and dirty atmosphere of the
factory for providing an opportunity to the workers to relax and restore their energy during the
rest time. These rooms are well ventilated, bright and provided with adequate sanitation.
12. Medical Service:

therefore, considered as the responsibility of the employer both from business and humanitarian
point of view. The medical service is considered as the activity of the welfare department.
Free medical aid should are provided to the sick workers. It would be desirable to maintain a
hospital with a few beds in the charge of a fully qualified medical officer and to provide a well-
equipped dispensary, and first-aid appliances. A fulltime nurse is always there in cases of
accidents and other things, where the patients are admitted in the hospital.
11. 13. Sport and Games:
Games and sports ensure robust health and feeling of brother-hood among the workers.
Provision of rest rooms and indoor games can be enjoyed by the workers during mid-day
intervals. Subordinate and higher officials come in contact with the workers. This develops
cooperation and cordial relations amongst them and reduces the industrial disputes. They learns
to respect each other.
