Shram Suvidha Portal and Labour Inspection Scheme in Central Sphere


     Multiplicity of labour laws and the difficulty in their compliance have always been cited as an impediment to the industrial development. The World Bank annual report for year 2014 in a comparative study on Indian Labour Laws has established the fact that the Indian states with flexible labour laws and easier compliance mechanism have fared better in terms of Industrial development than those where labour laws are rigid. Ease of compliance has also been found to be important for the growth of organized sector. Not only it is needed to amend the labour laws and make them flexible for the present circumstances but it is also important to ensure that the compliance is made easy as this will encourage the development of manufacturing industry, particularly MSME sector in the country.
  In this context, amendments to three major labour laws were presented to Parliament during this Monsoon session. Ministry is launching a Shram Suvidha Portal in central sphere to create a conducive environment for industrial development. There are 4 main features of this Portal:
Unique Labour Identification Number (LIN) will be allotted to Units to facilitate online registration
Filing of self-certified and simplified Single Online Return by the industry. Now Units will only file a single consolidated Return online instead of filing 16 separate Returns.
Mandatory uploading of inspection Reports within 72 hours by the Labour inspectors.
Timely redressal of grievances will be ensured with the help of the portal.
  This will bring in the necessary ease in compliance of provisions related to labour and will be a step forward in promoting the ease of doing business. The complete database available centrally at the unified portal will also add to informed policy process. 
    The portal will be operative in 4 central organizations namely Chief Labour Commissioner, Directorate General of Mines Safety, Employee Provident Fund and Employees’ State Insurance Corporation. In this endeavour of the Ministry, complete information of all 11 lakh units for these organizations has been collected, digitized and de-duplicated reducing the total number to 6-7 lakh. It is proposed to allot LIN to all these 6-7 lakh units. The Units will be informed by an SMS and email immediately on the allotment of LIN. 
Labour Inspection Scheme


     To bring in transparency in labour inspection, a new Labour Inspection scheme has been developed. There are 4 features for the new inspection scheme:
Serious matters are to be covered under the mandatory inspection list.
  1. A computerized list of inspections will be generated randomly based on pre-determined objective criteria.
  2. Complaints based inspections will also be determined centrally after examination based on data and evidence.
  3. There will be provision of Emergency List for inspection of serious cases in specific circumstances.
     A transparent Inspection Scheme will provide a check on the arbitrariness in compliance mechanism. Immediately on inauguration of the scheme, an SMS/email will be sent to 1800 Labour inspectors of these enforcement agencies on behalf of the Prime Minister.
Portability through Universal Account Number (UAN) for Employees Provident Fund


     Under this initiative complete information for approximately 4 crore subscribers of EPF has been centrally compiled and digitized, and a UAN has been allotted to all. The UAN is being seeded with Bank account and Aadhar Card and other KYC details for financial inclusion of vulnerable section of society and their unique identification. 
  Camps are being organized to facilitate opening of bank account and Aadhar card for those subscribers who have no bank account or Aadhar card as on date. This will ensure portability of the Social Security Benefits to the labour of organised sector across the jobs and geographic areas. The EPF account of employee will be now be updated monthly and at the same time he will be informed through SMS. Finally it will ensure that each of the 4 crore or more EPF account holders have direct access to their EPF accounts and will also enable them to consolidate all their previous accounts (approximately Rs 27000 Crore are currently lying with EPFO in inoperative accounts). By 16th October, 2014, approximately 2 crore subscribers will have the benefit of portability through UAN. 
  Subscribers will be informed through SMS/email immediately after the launch of the scheme. The minimum pension for employees has been introduced first time so that employees’ pension is not less than Rs. 1000 per month. The wage ceiling has been raised from Rs. 6500 to Rs. 15000 per month to ensure that vulnerable groups are covered under EPF Scheme.


Apprentices Protsahan Yoiana


  A major initiative has been undertaken to revamp the apprenticeship Scheme in India after extensive consultation with industry, states and other stakeholders with the vision of increasing apprenticeship seats to more than 20 lakhs in next few years. There are four components of this initiative:

  1. Making the legal framework friendly to both industry and youth. The necessary Bill amending the Act was placed and passed in Lok Sabha on 14.8.2014.
  2. Enhancing the rate of stipend and indexing it to minimum wages of semi-skilled workers
  3. Apprentice Protsahan Yoiana which will support manufacturing units mainly and other establishments by reimbursing 50% of the stipend paid to apprentices during first two years of their training. _
  4. Basic training component (mainly class room training part) of the curricula is being restructured on scientific principles to make it more effective , and MSMEs will be supported financially by permitting this component in government funded SDI scheme.

    The Apprentice Protsahan Yojana will support one lakh apprentices during the period up to March 2017. Selected Apprentices and the Establishments ready to participate m this scheme from various states will be invited and it is proposed that Prime Minister will give sanction letters to these to mark the launch of the new scheme.
