CHAPTER-I

INTRODUCTION

HERBAL INDUSTRY IN INDIA

The Ayurvedic industry in India is probably the oldest medical care

system in the world. The history of herbs in ancient India is so old that the

ancient form of herbal healing has even been mentioned in the Vedas, an

ancient religious work of the Hindus. The Rig Veda, which is believed to date

back to 3000 BC mentions the ancient practice of Ayurvedic healing, while the

Atharva Veda classifies the field of Ayurveda into eight divisions, each dealing

with a different part and function of-the human body and its organs. In ancient

times, it was therefore the Vedic Brahmins who performed this ancient form of

healing using herbal plants.

The ancient herbal healing methods of Ayurveda and Unani deal with the

use of herbs and natural products to tackle health conditions. Ayurveda does not

have a place as a perfect form of medicinal treatment in the developed world

today but the ancient practice is still practiced by many Indians. In fact, due to

the adverse effects of the components of many allopathic drugs, even people in

the western world have turned to Ayurvedic remedies for cures or at least to

supplement their allopathic treatment with. Consequently, recent years have seen

a great increase in the worldwide demand for herbal cures, herbal skin care

products and even herbal cosmetics.

In modern times, the world has grown to appreciate this ancient form of

medicine and consequently Indian herbal products manufacturers are benefiting

from a tremendous demand for their goods. The herbal products industry in India

is growing rapidly and witnesses almost a thirty percent growth rate annually.

Page 3: Project Final

There are also many scholars and students of medicine from other

parts of the worlds who now want to learn more about the field of Ayurveda.

However, even in olden times, scholars and medics from Greece, Rome, Tibet,

Egypt and Persia had also been intrigued enough to make trips to India to learn

about Ayurvedic medicine.

Some of the popular herbal products today are those that fit into a travel kit.

Such travel kits do not contain complicated instructions or difficult to manage

potions but rather contain basic herbal medications for minor cuts and ailments.

Some of the basic contents of such an herbal kit would include Aloe Vera, which

has been acknowledged as a 'miracle drug' the world over, ginger, garlic,

peppermint, etc.

While herbal medicines would therefore appear to be new for western

healers and medical practitioners, the truth is that most prescribed medicines even

today contain plant extracts. These plant extracts are thereafter fortified by

combining them with other ingredients. It is probably for this reason that even the

World Health Organization has finally seen fit to endorse certain herbal medicinal

care treatments. The World Health Organization now claims that such alternative

herbal medical practices offer a relevant therapy. Although herbal medicines are

still comparatively hard to obtain in America because of the rigid code of

standardization the medicines must comply by in that country, other countries like

Germany even have regular medical practitioners prescribing herbal drugs.

Rapid industrialization and urbanization have made employees dependent

on capitalist. Inflation has made their lot poor and they find it difficult to maintain

their standard of life. In such situations employee welfare facilities enable

workers to live a richer and more satisfactory life. After employees have been

hired, trained and remunerated they need to be retained and maintain to serve the

organization better. Welfare facilities are designed to take care of the well being

Page 4: Project Final

of the employees. Nor are these facilities provided by employer alone.

Governmental and non-governmental agencies and trade unions too,

contribute towards employee's welfare.

1.1 DEFINITIONS

The International Labour Organization defined labour welfare as

"Such services, facilities and amenities as may be established in or in the

vicinity of the undertakings to enable the persons employed in them to perform

their work in healthy, congenial surroundings and provided with amenities

conducive to good health and high morale".

According to the committee on Labour Welfare, welfare services should mean-

"Such services, facilities and amenities as adequate canteens, rest and

recreation facilities, sanitary and medical facilities, arrangement for travel to and

from the place of work, and for the accommodation of the workers employed at a

distance from their homes; and such other services, amenities and facilities

including social security measures, as contribute to the conditions under which

workers are employed".

The Encyclopedia of social services has defined Labour Welfare work as-

"The voluntary efforts of the employers to establish,within the existing

industrial system, working and sometimes, living and cultural conditions of

employees beyond what is required by law, the custom of the country and the

condition of the market".

Page 5: Project Final

1.2 CHARACTERISTICS OF LABOUR WELFARE

The main features of Labour Welfare can be termed as the following:

It is the work which is usually undertaken by within the promises or with in

the vicinity of the undertakings for the benefit of the employees and members of

their families.

The work generally includes those items of welfare which are over and

above what is provided by statutory provisions or required by the custom of the

industry or what the employees expect as a contract or services from the

employers.

The purpose of providing welfare amenities is to bring about the development of

the whole personality "Of the worker-his social, psychological, economic, moral,

cultural and intellectual development to make him a good worker, a good citizen

and good member of the family. The facilities may be provided voluntarily by the

employers out of their social responsibility towards labour, or statutory

responsibilities compel them to make these facilities available; or these may be

undertaken by the government or trade unions, if they have necessary fund for the

purpose.

Labour welfare also covers social security and such other activities as

medical aid, creches, canteens, recreation, housing, adult education, arrangements

for transport of labour to and from the work place.

It may be also noted that not only intramural but also extramural, statutory

as well as non statutory activities undertaken by any of the three agencies-the

employers, trade unions and govemment-for the physical and mental development

of a worker and also to enable him to sustain and improve upon the basic capacity

of contribution to the production.

it, "such services, facilities and recreation facilities, sanitary and medical

facilities, arrangements for travel to and from work and for the accommodation of

workers employed at a distance from their homes, and such other services,

amenities and facilities, including social security measures as contribute to

improve the conditions under which workers are employed".

LITERATURE FRAMEWORK

Page 24: Project Final

CHAPTER III

LITERATURE FRAMEWORK

Meaning and definition of employee's welfare

Welfare means fairing or doing well. It is a comprehensive term, and refers

to the physical, mental, oral and emotional well being of an individual.

Further the term welfare is a relative concept, relative in time and space. It

therefore varies from time to time, from region to region and from country to

country.

The Institute of Labour Welfare Organization define, "Labour welfare as a

term which is understood to include such services, facilities and amenities as

may be established in the vicinity of undertaking to enable the persons

employed in them to perform their work in healthy, congenial'surroundings

and to provide them with amenities conducive to good health and high

morale".

Objectives of Employee's Welfare

It helps to improve the quality of new recruitment. As the job becomes

more attractive, more effective employees can be recruited. Employee's

welfare improves the morale and loyalty of workers by making them happy

and satisfied. It reduces labour turnover and absenteeism thereby building a

stable work force. Welfare measures help to improve the goodwill and public

image of the enterprise.

EMPLOYEE WELFARE

Welfare includes anything that is done for the comfort and improvement of

employees and is provided over and above the wages. Welfare helps in

keeping the morale and motivation of the employees high so as retain the

employees for longer duration. The welfare measures need not be in

monetary terms only but in any kind/forms. Employee welfare includes

Page 25: Project Final

monitoring of working conditions, creation of industrial harmony through

infrastructure for health, industrial relations and insurance against disease,

accident and unemployment for the workers and their families. Employee

welfare measures increase the productivity of organization and promote

healthy industrial relations thereby maintaining industrial peace.

There must provide "adequate and appropriate" welfare facilities for the

employees. These must be provided unless they are unreasonable in terms of

time, cost and physical difficulty.

Welfare facilities include toilets, washing facilities, rest and changing

facilities, personal security arrangements (e.g. Lockers) and refreshment.

There must be a sufficient number of toilets and washing facilities so that

people should not have to queue for long periods to use them. These should

be separate for male and female, unless there have a very small number of

staff. The facilities must be clean, and provided with toilet paper, soap,

drying facilities, and hot and cold running water. They must be well lit, and

ventilated to the external air. Sometimes a shower may be necessary.

There must provide a supply of clean and wholesome drinking water, which

is easily accessible to all employees. Cups should be provided and the taps

clearly labelled. There must consider whether suitable facilities are available

to staff working off-site or on temporary sites.

If not, temporary arrangements must be provided. Some workers may need

to be provided. Some workers may need to be provided with portable

facilities for hand washing.

If the work activity requires employees to change into specialist clothing,

they must provide changing rooms and facilities for secure storage of

personal belongings. They may need to consider separate storage for clean

and dirty clothing, or the provision of laundry facilities.

Employee welfare is a very broad area of interest. In our organization

Page 26: Project Final

employee welfare is addressed to varying degrees by measures such as:

1.Family friendly policies - For example, staff can in most positions opt to

work part time. Or they can choose to "purchase" extra annual leave (i.e. Get

paid slightly less each fortnight, but get an extra 2-4 weeks of.annual leave)

Flexi time - Most staff can choose how early or late they start each day, so

long as they are here between 10 am and 4 pm. Of course, they have to make

up time if they regularly start late or finish early. Staff can carry up to 20

hours deficit or 20 hours surplus from one month to the next. If in surplus,

staff can take this time off with manager approval.

Employee Assistance Programs- Our agency has an arrangement with an

external counseling service so that employees or members of their immediate

family can access counseling on any matter what so ever - work issues, drug

and alcohol problems, family dynamics etc.

Policies on bullying and harassment in the workplace. Psychological

health is a big focus for us and sadly there are a few managers who are very

"unhealthy" for their staff.

Paid Maternity & Adoption leave. A recent industrial decision enables

staff to have up to 12 weeks paid maternity or adoption leave and up to 2

years unpaid leave for each child. Of course, under equal opportunity

legislation the organization is obliged to allow the employee to return to their

position when this leave is finished.

6. The agency maintains a "family friendly" website that has links to support

services for a whole range of things - parenting, domestic violence, child

abuse, health issues ( specific to men and women) etc.

Employees Welfare Committee

I. Legal Requirement-

Page 27: Project Final

The law requires establishment of an Employees Welfare Committee (EWC),

with management and employee participation, to have custody of and

disburse an Employee Welfare Fund, which receives r contribution from the

Company and from each employee. The Employees Welfare Committee

prepares a welfare program and has established an Employees Welfare

Association (EWA) to administer the program. All Employee Welfare

Organizational and fiscal matters are under the rules and control of

competent Government authority.

II. Organization-

The Employees Welfare Committee consists of nine members, including

representatives of the Labour Union. The committee meets every three

months. A chief executive appointed by the committee is delegated to

exercise Employee Welfare Committee authority between meetings. A

chairman who supervises EWA personnel and manages EWA programs

heads the EWrA.

III. Finances

The company legally required contribution to the Employee Welfare Fund

includes 0.10 percent of gross income plus 40 % of proceeds from scraps

sales. Additionally the company provides land, buildings and facilities (and

maintenance thereof), and furnishes a number of full time administrative

employees to the EWA and provides a monthly cash subsidy. The employees

contribute approximately 0.5 percent of their base salaries to the fund.

Periodic financial statements are required and submitted to competent

Facilities like housing schemes, medical benefits, and education

and recreation facilities for workers families help in raising their standards of

living. This makes workers to pay more attention towards work and thus

increase their productivity.

Employers gel stable labour force by providing welfare

facilities. Workers take active interest in their jobs and work a feeling of

involvement and participation. The social evils prevalent among the labours

such as substance abuse, etc are reduced to a greater extent by the welfare

policies:

LABOUR'S WELFARE WARFARE

Labour would start to attack working class people almost

Page 31: Project Final

immediately in particular with a full frontal assault on welfare benefits might

have surprised some. Now events have shown that indeed labour has this in

mind and is acting very rapidly to carry out its attacks.

Labour is planning to axe maternity benefits. It disguises this

attack behind the propaganda that women earning 1 million a year should not

get maternity benefits. In reality this is aimed at women in ordinary white

collar jobs.

They are also planning to cut disability benefits by forcing the disabled into

jobs that would be totally unsuitable. When Harriet Herman became

secretary of state for social security she refused to increase incapacity

benefits. probably amongst the lowest in the EU. Now the disabled are being

forced back to work with camouflage propaganda about personal advisers

talking with the disabled - threatening and bullying them. Another part of the

attack on welfare benefits is the old lie much used by the Tories, now dusted

off and polished up by labour that fraud is taking place on a massive scale

with the benefits system. Labour plucked the figure of 17 % from the air.

This figure was supplied by the department of social security itself, when

other surveys suggest around 2 % fraud. At the same time big businessmen,

including people like Geoffrey Robinson, the paymaster general are tax

dodging by salting their money away in offshore trusts - perhaps as much as

96 billion.

Labour will cut single parent benefits further scapegoat a

section of the working class that had already been scapegoat under the

Tories. Labour knows that a large part of the social security budget goes on

pensions. This is likely to increase with an increasing proportion of elderly in

the population. Labour will attempt to close down state pensions and force

people to take out private pensions. Many will find this difficult to pay,

already finding it hard to make ends meet.

Page 32: Project Final

Slave labour

Labours welfare to work scheme through the new deal is

designed to provide cheap labour to the employers through training,

education and job opportunities. Those who refuse to be forced into

derisorily low paid jobs will have their benefits removed. Many of these

involve sending people to work for charities, councils, or for supermarkets.

This will provide slave labour workers and threaten the wages of those

already working in these sectors. The education part will mean NVQ level 2

qualifications at further education colleges. This means training for semi-

skilled jobs. Those already signing on and taking NVQ level 3 will only be

allowed to continue if it is thought that there will be "job prospects". 69,000

enrolled on A level and Access courses will find themselves being forced

onto these schemes. These education schemes would be totally shoddy, with

little chance of a job at the end, and with a direct aim of camouflaging

unemployment figures.

Labour is hiding these attacks behind the propaganda of

'"Radical Welfare Reform" "New Deal" "New Opportunities". These soap ad

jingles disguise a brutal attack on the welfare system as does the statement

that "The country can't afford the massive spending on the welfare state". In

fact Britain is the third lowest in the EU league of 11 countries expenditure

on health and welfare benefits. Labour wants to make sure the British bosses

have to fork out less for benefits.

Page 33: Project Final

At the same time labour has signaled its policy on wages. Public

sector workers-teachers, health workers etc. were due to get a pay rise of 3.S

%. With 3.7 % inflation and the cost of living soaring, even this would be

pathetic. Labour intervened to stop the Pay Review Bodies paying out, and

ordered that 2 % only be paid from April. The rest to be paid in December.

This means that 8 months worth of an already measly rise will be taken off

wages. This is the biggest pay delay ever in public sector history. Nurses will

lose 5 a week and teachers 50 a month.

In addition, all pay awards will be what Gordon Brown calls

self - financing. No extra money will be given by the government and

schools and hospitals will make the pay awards by cutting elsewhere. This

was already carried out by the previous conservative government resulting in

the loss of 2,50,000 public sector jobs since 1993.

Blair intends to make this a signal to workers in the

private sector and to all public sector workers not covered by the Pay Review

Bodies. Unison, the union representing many public sector workers has put

forward a demand for a 10 % pay rise or an increase of 1,000 (whichever is

greater). This is due to outrange

among public sector workers. In fact, it will do nothing to push this demand

and the unison leaders are ready to accept the PRB decisions. Unison will

attempt to sabotage any industrial action by pointing to the

implementation of a national minimum wage as a solution. It will also point

out that David Blunkett, threatened to ban strikes in the public sector.

social and more team-spirit is included in them.
