Wage policy in india - compensation management - Manu Melwin Joymanumelwin
A national wage policy aims at establishing wages at the highest possible level, which the economic conditions of the country permit and ensuring that the wage earner gets a fair share of the increased prosperity of the country as a whole resulting from the economic development.
A "wage determination" is the listing of wage rates and work benefit rates for each classification of labourers and mechanics. This is determined by skill, effort, knowledge, experience etc.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
1. WAGES AND SALARY
ADMINISTRATION
Chapter 2 – Wage Concepts and Theories
2. Chapter 2
Wages Concepts
The term “wages” may be used to describe one of
several concepts, including wage rates, straight-time
average hourly earnings, gross average hourly
earnings, weekly earnings, weekly take home pay,
and annual earnings
The term “compensation” is of a recent origin which
includes everything an employed individual receives
in return for his work
Cont…………
3. Chapter 2
The concept “earnings” relates to remuneration in
cash and in kind paid to employees, as a rule, at
regular intervals for time worked or work done
together with remuneration for time not worked
Wages, in the widest sense, means any economic
compensation met by the employer under some
contract to his employees for the services rendered
by them
Gross earnings may differ from the wage rate not
only because of the number of days or weeks on
which a worker is able, or willing to secure
employment
The two terms often used interchangeably are
“wages” and “salary”
4. Chapter 2
Several terms have acquired currency referring to the
wage levels:
Statutory minimum wage
The base or base minimum wage
The minimum wage
The fair wage
The living wage
The need based minimum wage
5. Chapter 2
Minimum Wages
There can be three kinds of minimum wages:
A minimum wage notified by the government under
the Minimum Wages Act, 1948 for different
scheduled employments
A minimum wage drawn by an unskilled worker in an
organized industry as a result of wage settlement
which is purely the result of hard bargaining
Need-based minimum wage determined as per the
norms prescribed by the 15th Session of Indian
Labour Conference
6. Chapter 2
Need-based Minimum Wage
To calculate the minimum wage, the committee
accepted the following five norms and recommended
that they should guide all wage-fixing authorities,
including minimum wage committees, wage boards
and adjudicators
In calculating the minimum wage, the standard
working class family should be taken to consist of
three consumption units for one earner
Minimum food requirements should be calculated on
the basis of a net intake of 2,700 calories
Cont…………
7. Chapter 2
Clothing requirement should be estimated at a per
capita consumption of 18 yards per annum which
could give for the average workers’ family of four, a
total of 72 yards
In respect of housing, the norm should be the
minimum rent charged by government in any area for
houses provided under the subsidised industrial
housing scheme fro low-income groups
Fuel, lighting and other miscellaneous items of
expenditure should constitute 20% of the total
minimum wages
8. Chapter 2
Fair Wage
The Encyclopedia of Social Sciences describes a
“fair wage” as one equal to that received by workers
performing work of equal skill, difficulty or
unpleasantness
The Committee on Fair Wages stated that the fair
wage was something between a minimum wage and
a living wage
The lower limit of a fair wage must obviously be the
minimum wage, the upper limit is equally set by what
may broadly be called the capacity of the industry to
pay
9. Chapter 2
Living Wage
Justice Higgins defined living wage as one
appropriate for “the normal needs of the average
employee, regarded as a human being living in a
civilized community”
There are three possible ways of obtaining some
indication as to what constitutes a living wage:
It should be sufficient to pay for a satisfactory
basic budget
Cont…………
10. Chapter 2
It should be sufficient to purchase the minimum
theoretical needs of a typical family, calculated in
accordance with some more or less scientific
formula
It should be comparable with a living wage already
established in similar circumstances
It is a difficult task to fix a living wage in terms of
money as it differs from country to country and from
time to time, according to national economy and
social policies
It is obvious that the concept of a living wage is not a
static concept; it is expanding
11. Chapter 2
Money and Real Wages
Wages earned by employees are normally expressed
in terms of money
There are two aspects of wages:
Money wage
Real wage
According to Adam Smith money wage level is
determined and regulated by the interaction between
supply and demand of necessaries, on the one hand
and the supply and demand of labour, on the other
Cont…………
12. Chapter 2
With the exception of the First Plan period money
wage increases have lagged behind price increases
throughout the period of Indian planning
Since the early sixties, there has been a continuous
rise in the prices of most of our consumption of goods
and services
In an inflationary situation, there is bound to be
erosion of the purchasing power of earnings or
money wages
It is no doubt true that unless money wages rise as
fast as consumer prices, it would result in an erosion
of real wages
13. Chapter 2
Wage Theories
Subsistence Theory
Wage Fund Theory
Marginal Productivity Theory
The Residual Claimant Theory
Employment Theory
Cont…………
14. Chapter 2
Exploitation Theory
Labour Theory of Value
Competitive Theory
Low-wage Labour Market Theory
Purchasing Power Theory
Micro-economic Wage Theory
Multi-disciplinary Theories
15. Chapter 2
Subsistence Theory
This theory states that in the long run, wages would
tend towards that sum which is necessary to maintain
a worker and his family
While Adam Smith and David Ricardo argued that it
is the growth of population which brings down wages
to the level of minimum subsistence, Karl Marx
argued that subsistence wages emerge because of
the phenomenon of unemployment and “the reserve
army of labour”
Malthus held that wages were bound to remain at the
subsistence level because any increase in wages
would bring about an increase in population
16. Chapter 2
Wage Fund Theory
This theory stated that at any given moment, wages
are determined by the relative magnitude of the work
force and the whole or a certain part of the capital of
the country
The wages are paid from a fixed ‘wage fund’
According to John Stuart Mill, wage was a variable
dependent on the relation between the labouring
population and the aggregate funds set aside by the
capitalists to pay them
17. Chapter 2
Marginal Productivity Theory
This theory focused on demand for labour
Marginal productivity theory explains not only the
general level of wages but the entire wage structure
of a highly competitive economy in terms of
interaction of supply and demand
As a demand theory of wages, the marginal
productivity theory fails to make full allowance for the
particular nature of supply curves for labour
18. Chapter 2
The Residual Claimant Theory
Francis A. Walker has propounded this theory of
wages as apart of residual surplus which is left after
other factor charges have been met
This theory was designed to emphasize the interest
of the working class in continual process and
accumulation
It does not explain how trade unions are able to
increase the wages
This theory does not consider the aspect of labour
market and the role of labour in productivity
19. Chapter 2
Bargaining Theory
This theory was propounded by John Davidson
According to him, wages are determined by the
relative bargaining power between workers or trade
unions and employers and basic wages, fringe
benefits, job differentials and individual differences
tend to be determined by the relative strength of the
organization and the trade union
Cont………..
20. Chapter 2
Bargaining has received considerable
attention in view of the fact that wages are
now being determined by collective groups of
workers organized into trade unions and
employers organized into employers’
association
Collective bargaining may be seen as the
process through which labour supply and
demand are equated in the labour market
Cont…………
21. Chapter 2
Walton and McKersie identified four
bargaining sub-processes:
Intra-organization bargaining
Distributive bargaining
Integrative bargaining
Attitudinal bargaining
22. Chapter 2
Employment Theory
There are essentially two schools of thought which
propounded the inter-relationship between wages
and employment
According to Pigou, unemployment would disappear
if the workers were to accept a voluntary cut in wages
John Maynard Keynes, in his theory of employment,
advocated wage rigidity in place of wage flexibility
Voluntary of employment would not doubt increase, if
the cut in money wages is applied to a single industry
23. Chapter 2
Exploitation Theory
Adam Smith suggested the basis of an exploitation
theory as the original state of things in which the
whole produce of labour belonged to the labourers
and when there were no landlords nor masters to
share with them
Starting with Ricardo’s notion that labour creates all
value, Marx contended that profit, interest, and rent
are unwarranted deductions from the product that
labour alone creates
24. Chapter 2
Labour Theory of Value
According to Marx, the simplest concept which
related to man’s activity of producing his means of
livelihood was human labour
He considered labour as an article of commerce
which could be purchased on payment of subsistence
price
The price of any product was determined by the
labour time needed for producing it
His theory is also known as surplus value theory of
wages
25. Chapter 2
Competitive Theory
The competitive theorists assume that neither
employers nor employees combine together to
influence demand or supply conditions and that
markets are perfect
Unfortunately these do not hold good in the case of a
monopolistic world market
The forces of demand and supply may be affected by
government intervention in the regulation of wages,
the application of awards, and the statutory extension
of the provision of collective agreement to employers
and workers who were not parties to them
26. Chapter 2
Low-Wage Labour Market Theory
There are several conceptual approaches which can
be adopted for analysing the behaviour of low-income
labour market:
Queue Theory:
It asserts that workers are ranked according to
the relationship between their potential
productivity and their wage rates
Dual Labour market theory:
This theory argues that labour market is
divided into primary and secondary markets
27. Chapter 2
Purchasing Power Theory
According this theory, wage increases are desirable
because they raise labour income and thereby
stimulate consumption
Purchasing power and consumption are usually
increasing just prior to recession; workers account for
only part of total consumers spending; the
assumption that general overproduction can be
overcome by higher wages;are some of the basic
limitations of this theory
28. Chapter 2
Micro-economic Wage Theory
According to Jean Marchal, such a theory must
have three essential requirements:
The usual concept of wages must be replaced by a
wider concept
General behaviour of employers and workers affect
the general price level only if there is sufficient
compatibility between the structures of the groups
and of production
Integration of the theory of wages into a theory of
national income distribution
29. Chapter 2
Multi-Disciplinary Theories
A number of multi-disciplinary theories have
emerged to encompass the increasing range of
variables which empirical work provides
Lester has studied labour market behaviour to
explain wage differentials by contemplating what he
calls competitive, anti-competitive, and impeditive
factors
Dunlop sought to identify job clusters by which he
meant a stable group of jobs within a company linked
together by technology, administrative organization,
and social custom
