Part:-1 Human Resource Management

INTRODUCTION:-

Human resource management (HRM) is an approach to the management of people, based


on four fundamental principles. First, human resources are the most important assets an
organisation has and their effective management is the key to its success. Second, this
success is most likely to be achieved if the personnel policies and procedures of the
enterprise are closely linked with, and make a major contribution to, the achievement of
corporate objectives and strategic plans. Third, the corporate culture and the values,
organisational climate and managerial behaviour that emanate from that culture will exert a
major influence on the achievement of excellence. This culture must, therefore, be
managed which means that organisational values may need to be changed or reinforced,
and that continuous effort, starting from the top, will be required to get them accepted and
acted upon. Finally, HRM is concerned with integration - getting all the members of the
organisation involved and working together with a sense of common purpose.

CONCEPT:-

HRM is a strategic approach to the acquisition, motivation, development and management


of the organisation’s human resources. It is a specialised field that attempts to deed .ng an
appropriate corporate culture, and introducing programmes which reflect and support the
core values of the enterprise and ensure its success.HRM is proactive rather than reactive,
i.e., always looking forward to what needs to be done and then doing it, rather than waiting
to be told what to do about recruiting, paying or training people, or dealing with employee
relations problems as they arise. The techniques for the application of HRM will include
many familiar functions of personnel managers, such as manpower planning, selection,
performance appraisal, salary administration, training and management development.
Functions of HRM:-

There are two types of managerial functions of H.R.M.-


●Managerial function.
●Operation function.

1) Managerial functions:-
 Planning

One of the primary functions where number & type of employees needed to
accomplish organizational goals is determined. Research forms core HRM planning
which also helps management to collect analyze and identify current plus future
needs within the organization.

Organization of the task is another important step. Task is allocated to every
member as per their skills and activities are integrated towards a common goal.

 Directing:-
This includes activating employees at different levels and making them contribute
maximum towards organizational goal. Tapping maximum potentialities of an
employee via constant motivation and command is a prime focus.

 Controlling:-

Literature review:-

WHAT IS A LITERATURE REVIEW?

 A place to make connections between what you are investigating and what has
already been investigated in your subject area.

 A place to engage in a type of conversation with other researchers in your subject


Area.

 A place to identify previous research on the topic.

 A place to show there is a gap in the literature which your study can fill.

 A place from which to begin your own investigation.

Meaning of literature review:-

A literature review is a comprehensive summary of previous research on a topic. The


literature review surveys scholarly articles, books, and other sources relevant to a particular
area of research. ... It should give a theoretical base for the research and help you (the
author) determine the nature of your research.
Literature review of RAVI PHHARMA Company:-

1. TOMPA, E Mile, PHD, OLIVERA (2009)


general data based existing systematic review and study identify by contain export
we found strong evidence that identify by contain exports we found strong evidence
that organic and other injury prevention intervention in manufacturing and where
housing are worth undertaking of their financial merits. The economics evaluation of
intervention in this literature warrants further explanation. The review also providing
insights into how the metrology quality of economic evaluation in this literature could
be improved.

2. Johansson B:Risk:stenber M(2010)

This study was carried out a board survey and analysis of relevant research articles
about piece related wages and their effect on health and safety. A total of 75
research articles were examined extensively and 31 of these were found relevant
and had sufficient quality to serve the purpose of this study. The findings of these
relevant articles are summarising and analyse in survey. The fact that 27bof 31
studied articles found negative effect of piece rate on different aspect of health and
safety does not provide casually, but together they give very strong support that in
most situation piece rates have negative Effect on health and safety.

Jones et al. (2006):


Jones ET. Al. (2006) suggested that examples of recruitment policies in the
healthcare, business or industrial sector may offer insights into the processes
involved in establishing recruitment policies and defining managerial objectives.
Successful recruitment techniques involve an incisive analysis of the job, the
labourmarket scenario/ conditionsand interviews, and psychometric tests in order to
find out the potentialities of job seekers. Furthermore, small and medium sized
enterprises lay their hands on interviews and assessment with main concern related
to job analysis, emotional intelligence in inexperienced job seekers, and corporate
social responsibility. Other approaches to selection outlined by Jones et al. (2006)
include several types of interviews, role play, group discussions and group tasks, and
so on.

Alan Price (2007):


Price (2007), in his work Human Resources Management in a Business Context,
formally defines recruitment and selection as the process of retrieving and attracting
able applications for the purpose of employment. He states that the process of
recruitment is not a simple selection process, while it needs management decision
making and broad planning in order to appoint the most appropriate manpower.
Their existing competition among business enterprise for recruiting the most
potential workers in on the pathway towards creating innovations, with the
management decision making and employees attempting to hire only the best
applicants who would be the best fit for the corporate culture and ethics specific to
the company(Price 2007).

Jackson et al. (2009):


As discussed by Jackson et al. (2009), Human resource management approaches in
any business organisation are developed to meet corporate objectives and
materialisation of strategic plans via training and development of personnel to attain
the ultimate goal of improving organisational performance as well as profits. The
nature of recruitment and selection for a company that is pursuing HRM approach is
influenced by the state of the labour and their strength within it. Furthermore, it is
necessary for such companies to monitor how the state of labour market connects
with potential recruits via the projection of an image which all have an effect on and
reinforce applicant expectations.
RESEARCH AND METHODOLOGY.

WHAT IS SAFETY ?

Safety refers the absence of accidents. Stated differently, safety to the


protection of workers from the dangers of accidents, in simple terms, means
freedom from the occurrence or risk of journey or loss. Industrial safety refers to the
protection of workers from dangers of industrial accidents. An accident, then an
unplanned and uncontrollable event in which an actions or reaction of a substance, a
perso radiation result in personal injury.
TYPES OF ACCIDENTS

Accidents are different types. They may be classified as major and major ones,
depending upon the severity of the injury. A accidents which ends in a death, or which result
in a prolonged disability to the injured is a major one.

A scratch or which does not seriously disable him/her is a major accident, but an
accident nevertheless. A mere incision or a deep scratch, say the leg or the shoulder, may or
may not immediately disable the worker. But he or she may develop disability latter. Again,
a wound which may disable once worker may not disable another whereceives a similar
injury.

Types of accidents
Accidents may be of different types depending upon the severity, durability and degree
of the injury. An accident causing death or permanent or prolonged disability to the injured
employee is called major accident. A cut that does not render the employee disabled is
termed as minor accident. When an employee gets injury with external signs of it, it is
external injury.

Injury without showing external signs such as a fractured bone is called an internal one.
When an injury renders an injured employee disabled for a short period, say, a day or a
week, it is a temporary accident. On the contrary, making injured employee disabled for
ever is called permanent accident. Disability caused by accident may be partial or total, fatal
or non-fatal.

The various types of accidents are now shown in below. Types of Accident No accident
occurs automatically. Instead, certain factors cause accidents. It has been noticed that an
accident does not have a single cause but a multiplicity of causes, which are often closely
related. The same is discussed subsequently .
Causes of Accidents:-

The industrial safety experts have classified the various causes of accidents into three broad
categories:
1. Unsafe Conditions
2. Unsafe Acts
3. Other Causes

These are discussed, in brief.

1. Unsafe Conditions (work-related):-


Unsafe working conditions are the biggest cause of accidents. These are associated with
detective plants, tools, equipment, machines, and materials. Such causes are known as
technical causes. They arise when there are improper guarded equipments, defective
equipments, faulty layout and location of plant, inadequate lighting arrangements and
ventilation, unsafe storage, inadequate safety devices, etc. Besides, the psychological
reasons such as working over time, monotony, fatigue, tiredness, frustration and anxiety are
also some other causes that cause accidents. Safety experts identify that there are some
high danger zones in an industry. These are, for example, hand lift trucks, wheel-barrows,
gears and pulleys, saws and hand rails, chisels and screw drivers, electric drop lights, etc.,
where about one-third of industrial accidents occur.

2. Unsafe Acts:-
Industrial accidents occur due to certain acts on the part of workers. These acts may be the
result of lack of knowledge or skill on the part of the worker, certain bodily defects and
wrong attitude.
Examples of these acts are:
1. Operating without authority.
2. Failure to use safe attire or personal protective equipments,
3. Careless throwing of material at the work place.
4. Working at unsafe speed, i.e., too fast or too low.
5. Using unsafe equipment, or using equipments unsafely.
6. Removing safety devices.
7. Taking unsafe position under suspended loads.
8. Distracting, teasing, abusing, quarrelling, day-dreaming, horseplay
9. Ones own accident prone personality and behaviour.

3. Other Causes:-
These causes arise out of unsafe situational and climatic conditions and variations.
These may include excessive noise, very high temperature, humid conditions, bad
working conditions, unhealthy environment, slippery floors, excessive glare, dust and
fume, arrogant behaviour of domineering supervisors, etc. Of late, industrial
accidents have become common happening in our country. A brief catalogue of
major accidents in the recent past in India is produced here:
NEED FOR SAFETY:-

1. Cost saving:-

Two types of cost are incurred by the management when a


accidents occurs. There are three direct costs, in the form of compensation
payable to the management when an accident occurs. There are the different
costs, in the form of compensation payable to the departments of the victim if
the accident is fatal , and medical expenses incurred in training the patient if
the accident is non fatal. The management, however, not liable to meet direct
costs if the victim is insured under the ESI scheme. When the victim is un
interested, compensation and medical expenses are the responsibility of the
management.

More serious than the direct are the indirect or hidden costs which the
management cannot avoid. In fact, indirect cost is three to four times higher than
the direct costs. Hidden cost include loss on account of down —time of operators,
slowed-up production rate of other workers , material spoiled and labour for
cleaning and damages to equipment.

2. Increased productivity:-

Safety planed a efficient plants. To a large extend promoters productivity,


employees in safe plan can devote more time improving the quality and quantity of
their output and spend less time worrying about their safety and well-being.

3. Moral:-

Safety is an important on human ground s too. Managers must undertake


accident preservation measure to minimise the pain and suffering the injured
workers and his /her family is often exposed to as a result of the accident. An
employee is a worker in the factory and the bread-winner for his/her family. The
happiness of his/her family depends upon health and well-being of the worker.
4. Legal:-

There are legal rezones too for undertaking safety measures, there are laws
covering occupational health & safety, and penalties for non-compliances havs
become quite server. The responsibility expense to the safety and health
surrounding community, too.
HEALTH AND SAFETY AT WORK :

According to cole(2002), employer has a common law due to provide a safe


place of work for his or her employees and is liable at common low of accidents
encounter by his or her employee in the course of their employment. The duties
(regarding health and safety) which employer Owens his or her employees
basically include following:

 The provision of a safe place of safe employment.


 The provision of a safe means of assess to work.
 The provision of safe system of working.
 The provision of adequate equipment, materials and clothing
to enable employees to carry out their work safely.
 The provision of compliment co-workers.
 The duty of care to ensure that employees are not subjected
o any unreasonable risk in the work place.
BUILDING AN EFFECTIVE HEALTH & SAFETY
MANAGEMENT SYSTEM:-

The components of effective health and safety are briefly management systems are
briefly explained below:

 Management leadership& organisational commitment:

For this system to be effective, management must show leadership and


commitment to the program. To achieve this, should put the organisations
expectation around the health and safety into writing by developing a health and
safety policy. Employees who forms part of the health and safety committee,should
be involved in writing the policy and too be signed by senior operation offer,
to indicate the commitment of management.

 Roles and responsibility:

Clearly define and well communicated health and safety roles and
responsibilities
for all level of organisation will create an expectation of a sander level of
performance and accountability among employees, contractor, and visitors. All
level must be aware of their individual roles and responsibilities under both state
law and company standards.
 Management commitment:

For a health and safety management system to be effective, management at all


levels, should demonstrate their support of the health and safety program. This
may be demonstrated through management, participation in health and safety
leadership training meetings, facility inspection incidents investigations etc.

 Employee participation:

It is important for workers to be involved in the development of the system in


order to create ownership as well as help a better fit with the culture of the
organisation.

 Hazard identification & assessment process:

Employers are reburied to assess a work site for existing and potential hazard
before work beings. Hazard assessment data could be used to determine what
worker- training needs to be done, and to build the content of employee
orientations and job training and hazard assessment data could be used can be used
as the basis of inspection cheklist.

 Determine control:

Address indentified by assigning method of control to eliminate or the hazard.


The most effective controls can be determined based on legal requirement,
manufacturers specifications, company rules, industry best practices, and worker
inputs.

 Hazard control:

Once the hazard assessments are completed, the next step in the development of
the health and safety management system id the implementation of control
measure to eliminate or reduce the risk of hrm to work.

 Enforcement of control:

To enforce control methods, develop a constrictive enforcement policy, and


communicate the consequence to employees and the steps that will be taken
if noncompliance occurs.
 Enforcement of control:

To ensure control methods, develop a constructive enforcement policy


communicate the consequence to employees and the steps that will be taken if
noncompliance occurs.

 Emergency response plan:


A serious emergency (such as explosion, fire, or flood) could seriously affect the
operation of a business and put the health, safety, and livelihood of many
employees in jeopardy. The best health and safety management system cannot
protect your company from all natural or unexpected disasters; however, having a
good emergency response emergency response plan (ERP) in place can reduce the
severity and risk of loos. Knowing what to do and who to contract can save lives
and reduce costs if should disaster should strike.

WHAT IS HEALTH?

Health is a measure of quality of life that is difficult to define and measure. In the
1940s, the world health organization defined health as a “state of complete physical,
mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.”

A resource of everyday life with not objective of leaving health is positive concept
impressing social and personal resources as well as physical capacities. World health
organisation occupational health deals with all aspect of health and safety in the workplace
and has a strong focus on primary preservation of hazards.

Types of helth :-

 Physical health.
 Mental health.
1 ) Physical health
The health of employees results in a reduces productivity high unsafe acts and increases
absentees. A healthy worker on the other hand in the other words healthy employees are
more productive safe conscious and more regular to work. The worker who is healthy is
always cheerful confident looking and is an individual asset to the organisation.
2 ) Mental health.
Mental health is refers to persons emotional social and physiological well being mental
health is as importance as physical health to a full active life style. It is define mental health
as physical health because in many cause on the individual perception of their experience
with improvement in testing however some sings types of mental illness how becoming
visible in scans and genetic testing.
Identify hazard at work place.

Every workplace has hazards. As an employer, you have a legal responsibility to look after
your employees safety and protect them against health and safety hazards at work. In order
to manage workplace health and safety and help prevent accidents and sickness absence, its
important to identify, monitor and reduce the risk associated with workplace hazards.

What are workplace hazards?

Simply put, workplace hazards are any aspect of work that cause health and safety risks and
have the potential to harm.
Some hazards are more likely to be present in some workplaces than others, and depending
on the work that you do; there will be hazards that are more or less relevant to your busines

What are the most common workplace hazards?


There are many types of workplace hazards, which tend to come under four main
categories:

Physical hazards — the most common workplace hazards, including vibration, noise and
slips, trips and falls;

Ergonomic hazards — physical factors that harm the musculoskeletal system, such as
repetitive movement, manual handling and poor body positioning;

Chemical hazards — any hazardous substance that can cause harm to your employees;

Biological hazards — bacteria and viruses that can cause health effects, such as hepatitis,
hiv/aids and legionnaires disease.
Common health risks
Some of the most common health risks associated with workplace hazards include:

 Breathing problems;
 Skin irritation;
 Damage to muscles, bones and joints;
 Hearing damage;
 Reduced wellbeing.

How to prevent workplace hazards

The best way to protect yourself and your employees from workplace hazards is to
identify and manage them and take reasonable steps to prevent their potential to harm.
In order to control workplace hazards and eliminate or reduce the risk, you should take
the following steps

 Identify the hazard by carrying out a workplace risk assessment;


 Determine how employees might be at risk;
 Evaluate the risks;
 Record and review hazards at least annually, or earlier if something changes

 The Importance of Having an Internal Health and Safety Officer


Employers covered by theOSH Act must provide employees with “jobs and a place of
employment free from recognized hazards causing, or are likely to cause, death or serious
physical harm.” This includes compliance with OSHA statutes, standards, regulations, and
others.
Businesses that do not show theyve taken reasonable precautions to prevent workplace
injuries and illness can be found negligent. This can result in costly workers compensation
claims, higher premiums, hefty fines, a damaged reputation, and injuries, illnesses, or death.

 Ensuring Compliance
An internal health and safety officerfocuses on accident and illness prevention and
implements the latestregulations and guidelines, including those ofthe Department of
Labor, OSHA, and the Environmental Protection Act. Health and safety is a highly specialized
and regulated field and a company health and safety officer must have the expertise to do it
well. A good health and safety officerlooks beyond managing the basics and instead actively
manages risk.

 Actively Managing Risk


By performing mandatory and optionaltesting, random spot checks, evaluating worksites
and offices, and polling management and employees, the business is more likely to comply
and avoid unnecessary fines and frustration.

A health and safety officer often creates and updates the safety policy, required for all
businesses with five or more employees. They also disseminate this vital safety information
to employees and carry out risk assessment the inspection to identify and rectify potential
risk .

 Investigates Incidents
Anotherimportantrole ofthe health and safety officeris the investigation of any incidents
that occur in the workplace. They record and maintain an accident book, review possible
causes, and recommend changes when required.
Alternatively, the health and safety officer may serve the safety committee to apourthe
demands of the companys safety program. The committee relies on the officers expertise
and the officerreports progress on safety issues.

 Provides Trainin

The scope of a health and safety officer varies depending on the size and complexity ofthe
company. It can include training employees in the proper use ofPersonalProtective
Equipment(PPE), fire safety, emergency procedures, using machinery properly, handling
hazardous materials, and other safety- related issues.

The health and safety officer may also address issues of concern to the public. Sound
environmental and sustainability policies and procedures can improve public relations,
reduce a companys carbon footprint, and improve profitability. A knowledgeable,
personable health and safety officeris the ideal candidate to interact with outside parties to
ease concerns and bolster company reputation.

 Principal Contact
Since a health and safety officer stays abreast of current regulations, theyre the logical
choice to advise management and the go-to contact for workers. They are also the principal
contact for safety inspectors and union representatives.

A skilled health and safety officer promotes healthy relations and can make doing business
less cumbersome, since they understand whats required and put health and safety first.

Health and Safety Provisions under Factories Act, 1948.

NOVEMBER 19, 2017

(xxiv) HEALTH
There are various measures under Factories Act 1948 which are taken by factories for
health, safety and welfare of their workers. Such measures are provided under Chapters III,
IV and V of the Act which are as follows:

Chapter III of the Act deals with the following aspects.

(xxiv) Section 11 ensures the cleanliness in the factory. It must be seen that a factory is
kept clean and it is free from effluvia arising from any drain, privy or other nuisance. The
Act has laid down following
provisions in this respect :

All the accumulated dirt and refuse on floors, staircases and passages in the factory shall be
removed daily by sweeping or by any other effective method. Suitable arrangements should
also be made for the disposal of such dirt or refuse. Once in every week, the floor should be
thoroughly cleaned by washing with disinfectant or by some other effective method [Section
11(1)(b)]. Effective method of drainage shall be made and maintained for removing water,
to the extent possible, which may collect on the floor due to some manufacturing process.

To ensure that interior walls and roofs, etc. are kept clean, it is laid down that: (i) white
wash or colour wash should be carried at least once in every period of 14 months; (ii) where
surface has been painted or varnished, repair or revanish should be carried out once in
every five years, if washable then once in every period of six months; (iii) where they are
painted or varnished or where they have smooth impervious surface, it should be cleaned
once in every period of 14 months by such method as may be prescribed.

All doors, windows and other framework which are of wooden or metallic shall be kept
painted or varnished at least once in every period of five years.
The dates on which such processes are carried out shall be entered in the prescribed
register. If the State Government finds that a particular factory cannot comply with the
above requirements due to its nature of manufacturing process, it may exempt the factory
from the compliance of these provisions and suggest some alternative method for keeping
the factory clean. [Section 11(2)]

(ii) Disposal of waste and effluents

Every occupier of a factory shall make effective arrangements for the treatment of wastes
and effluents due to the manufacturing process carried on in the factory so as to render
them innocuous and for their disposal. Such arrangements should be in accordance with the
rules, if any, laid down by the State Government. If the State Government has not laid down
any rules in this respect, arrangements made by the occupier should be approved by the
prescribed authority if required by the State Government. (Section 12)

(iii) Ventilation and temperature

Section 13 provides that every factory should make suitable and effective
provisions for securing and maintaining:-

Adequate ventilation by the circulation of fresh air; and such a temperature as will secure to
the workers reasonable conditions of comfort and prevent injury to health. What is
reasonable temperature depends upon the circumstances of each case. The State
Government has been empowered to lay down the standard of adequate ventilation and
reasonable temperature for any factory or class or description of factories or parts thereof.
It may direct that proper measure instruments at such places and in such position as may be
specified shall be provided and prescribed records shall be maintained.

Measures to reduce excessively high temperature: To prevent excessive heating of


any workroom following measures shall be adopted:
Walls and roofs shall be of such materials and so designed that reasonable temperature
does not exceed but kept as low as possible.

Where the nature of work carried on in the factory generates excessively high temperature,
following measures should be adopted to protect the workers .
( a ) by separating such process from the workroom; or
(b ) insulating the hot parts; or
I adopting any other effective method which will protect the workers.

The Chief Inspector is empowered to direct any factory to adopt such methods which will
reduce the excessively high temperature. In this regard, he can specify the measures which
in his opinion should be adopted. (Section 13)

(iv) Dust and fume

There are certain manufacturing processes like chemical, textile or jute, etc., which
generates lot of dust, fume or other impurities. It is injurious to the health of workers
employed in such manufacturing process. Following measures should be adopted in this
respect:

Effective measures should be taken to prevent the inhalation and accumulation of dust,
fumes etc., in the work-rooms.

Wherever necessary, exhaust appliances should be fitted, as far as possible, to the point of
origin of dust fumes or other impurities. Such point shall also be enclosed as far as possible.

In stationery internal combustion engine and exhaust should be connected into the open
air.

In cases of other internal combustion engine, effective measures should be taken to prevent
the accumulation of fumes there from. (Section 14) It may be pointed that the evidence of
actual injury to health is not necessary. If the dust or fume by reason of manufacturing
process is given off in such quantity that it is injurious or offensive to the health of the
workers employed therein, the offence is committed under this Section. Lastly the offence
committed is a continuing offence. If it is an offence on a particular date is does not cease to
be an offence on the next day and so on until the defiance is testify.
(v) Artificial humidification
Humidity means the presence of moisture in the air. In certain industries like cotton, textile,
cigarette, etc., higher degree of humidity is required for carrying out the manufacturing
process. For this purpose, humidity of the air is artificially increased. This increase or
decrease in humidity adversely affects the health of workers.

Section 15(1) empowers the State Government to make rules (i) prescribing the standards of
humidification, (ii) regulating methods to be adopted for artificially increasing the humidity
of the air, (iii) directing prescribed tests for determining the humidity of the air to be
correctly carried out, and recorded, and (iv) prescribing methods to be adopted for securing
adequate ventilation and cooling of the air in the work-room.

Section 15(2) lays down that water used for artificial humidification should be either purified
before use or obtained from a public supply or other source of drinking water.

Where the water is not purified as stated above. Section 15(3) empowers the Inspector to
order, in writing, the manager of the factory to carry out specified measures, before a
specified date, for purification of the water.

(vi) Overcrowding

Overcrowding in the work-room not only affect the workers in their efficient Discharge of
duties but their health also. Section 16 has been enacted with a view to provide sufficient air
space to the workers.

Section 16(1) prohibits the overcrowding in the work-rooms to the extent it is injurious to
the health of the workers.

Apart from this general prohibition Section 16(2) lays down minimum working space for
each worker as 14.2 cubic meters of space per worker in every workroom. For calculating
the work area, the space more than 4.2 meters above the level of the floor, will not be taken
into consideration.
Posting of notice: Section 16(3) empowers the Chief Inspector who may direct in writing the
display of a notice in the work-room, specifying the maximum number of workers which can
be employed in that room. According to Section 108, notice should be in English and in a
language understood by the majority of the workers. It should be displayed at some
conspicuous and convenient place at or near, the entrance. It should be maintained in clean
and legible conditions.

Exemptions : The chief Inspector may by order in writing, exempt any work-room from the
provisions of this section, subject to such conditions as he may think fit to impose, if he is
satisfied that non-compliance of such provision will have no adverse effect on the health of
the workers employed in such work-room.

(vii) Lighting

Section 17 of the Factories Act makes following provisions in this respect:

every factory must provide and maintain sufficient and suitable lighting, natural, artificial or
both, in every part of the factory where workers are working or passing

all the glazed windows and sky lights should be kept clean on both sides;

effective provisions should be made for the prevention of glare from a source of light or by
reflection from a smooth or polished surface;

formation of shadows to such an extent causing eye-strain or the risk of accident to any
work should be prevent and the state government is empowered to lay down standard of
sufficient and suitable lighting for factories for any class or description of factories or for any
worker and manufacturing process.

(viii) Drinking wate

Section 18 makes following provisions with regard to drinking water.


Every factory should make effective arrangements for sufficient supply of drinking water for
all workers in the factory;
Water should be wholesome, i.e., free from impurities;

Water should be supplied at suitable points convenient for all workers;

no such points should be situated within six meters of any washing place, urinals, latrine,
spittoon, open drain carrying silage or effluent or any other source of contamination, unless
otherwise approved in writing by the Chief Inspector;

all such points should be legible marked Drinking Water in a language understood by
majority of the workers;

in case where more than 250 workers are ordinarily employed, effective arrangements
should be made for cooling drinking water during hot weather. In such cases, arrangements
should also be made for the distribution of water to the workers; and the State Government
is empowered to make rules for the compliance of above stated provisions and for the
examination, by prescribed authorities, of the supply and distribution of drinking water in
factories.
Latrines and urinals

Every factory shall make suitable arrangement for the provision of latrines and urinals for
the workers. These points as stated below, are subject to the provisions (8) the State
Government is empowered to make rules in respect of following: prescribing the number of
latrines and urinals to be provided to proportion to the number of male and female workers
ordinarily employed in the factory. Any additional matters in respect of sanitation in
factories; responsibility of the workers in these matters.

Health and safety program

What is health and safety program

A health and safety program is a definite plan of action designed to prevent accidents and
occupational diseases. Some form of a program is required under occupational health and
wsafety legislation in most Canadian jurisdictions. A health and safety program must include
the elements required by the health and safety legislation as a minimum.
