Interviewer: Interview with Mr. Ponnusamy about new labour code continues. Lets hear that. Ponnusamy: Things related to appointing and terminating the employees has been made easy. Earlier companies with more than hundred employees cannot terminate workers without prior notice. Now the limitation has been extended to 300. Now companies with less than 300 employees can terminate the workers whenever they want. Earlier companies with less than 100 workers are not necessary to maintain the work timing of the workers. Now the limitation has been extended to 300. Also workers protesting against the company has made difficult. Limitation of appointing contract staffs has been increased. Those who are supporting this amendment say that with this new labour code, work opportunities will increase and investment will increase. But the field reality is different. The existing policies has been already implemented by Gujarath and Rajasthan ew years back. But job opportunities were not created in much quantity. Rather, survey says that joblessness, work exploitation has increased. In Indian Employment Framework, 90% Informal works take part. only 10% works are organised works. In this situation, this new laws will make organised work into unorganised works and it will increase the work exploitation. Already Indian companies are not following labour properly. Many labour laws are just for name sake. With this new laws, name sake laws will also be taken off. Ramasamy: So, it means earlier labour laws were atleast for name sake. P1: Yea, so employers were atleast scared of something. Ramasamy: But now, with new labour laws employers are allowed to do whatever they want. P1: Yes!! Ponnusamy sir is saying the concept of organised labours will vanish one day!! Ramasamy: Its not a structure then, its a hindrance!! P1: Thats all!! Now the question is what are we going to do? Ponnusamy: Lets be aware dear labours!! Thank you!! Interviewer: Thanks to Ponnusamy sir for explaining about labour laws in a easy and understandable way
