Major environmental aspects will be taken care of in the NIMZin the beginning itself by having an impact study while doingselection of the site and subsequently by having properzoning during Master Planning. Continuation of non-viable businesses leads to locking of
funds and capital assets, which can be more productivelydeployed for generation of higher output, incomes andemployment. An expeditious exit mechanism is thereforeessential for investments locked up in businesses. TheNational Manufacturing Policy seeks to introduce policymeasures to facilitate the expeditious redeployment of assetsbelonging to non viable units, while giving full protection tothe interests of the employees.

Under Section 25FFF of the Industrial Disputes Act there is amandatory requirement to pay compensation equivalent tofifteen days' average pay for every completed year ofcontinuous service, or any part thereof in excess of sixmonths. Under the Job Loss Policy, it is for firms operating in theNIMZs to insure workers against loss of employment in theevent of a unit requiring to close down, or to reduce theworkforce, due to financial constraints. This policy will beutilized for payment of compensation to workers at the time
of closure or right sizing of the company if circumstancesrequire them to do so.
