Dear,
As you know Contract labour
phenomenon has emerged in the 21st Century Worldwide as a means to cut cost at
the cost of the manpower involved. In India, the plight of millions of these
workers working in the organized sector in work/ job/ manpower contracts are
overlooked by the management, Government and even the media, in the name of
competitiveness and equality of opportunity. More so due to the technicalities
involved and lack of knowledge on various policies and laws on labour, Court orders, nobody wants to touch
upon the ticklish issue.
As Labour is a necessity for
running all organisations, Contract Labour has become a headache for the
management, exploitation for the workers and anguish for the contractor who is
juxtaposed between the two.
I am an alumnus of MDI, Gurgaon and at
present an inservice PhD student in the Centre for the Study for Law &
Governance, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi. I have been working with
the Govt. now for about 14 years after which I have joined the Centre for undertaking
research on "Contract Labour issues".
I am myself in search of
Contract Labour models running successfully in an organisation which you feel
is a win-win scenario for all the three stakeholders, i.e. the principal
employer, the contractor and the workers; which can be studied and duplicated.
Please do guide and suggest.
