INDEX
Sugar is produced in 121 Countries and global production now exceeds 120 million tons a year.
Approximately 70% is produced from sugarcane, a very tall grass with big stems which is
largely grown in the tropical countries. The remaining 30% is produced from sugar beet, a root
crop resembling a large parsnip grown mostly in the temperate zones of the north. It had been
rightly pointed out by the Late Shri.Fakhrudin Ali Ahmed when he was Minster for food and
agriculture, at the eleventh annual general meeting of the national federation of co-operative
factories limited.
“The co-operative factories in some parts of the country have become symbol of
industrializations in the development of ancillary industries providing opportunities of
employment to the village folk”. The industry provides employment to about 35 million
cultivators and 3.6 lakes skilled and unskilled workers. Further, it accounts for providing
employment to thousands of cores of sugar trade, in the transport of sugar cane and sugar etc.
It’s by - products are used as raw materials in industries such as alcohol, plastics, synthetics,
rubber, and fiberboard Pharmaceuticals, paper, etc. The sugar industry in recent years has begun
to export sugar, thus earning valuable foreign exchange. Besides it provides Rs. 300 cores in the
form of taxes to the exchange consisting of these many facts of important of the industry, it
ranks second among the major consumer industries of this country, next only to cotton, Textile
industry.
The sugar industry is mostly oriented to a single material, namely sugarcane, that forms 60% of
the total cost of production. Therefore, the availability of sugar cane and facilities of transporting
raw material of the sugar mill naturally condition the industry of sugar proximity to. The raw
material is essential because the sucrose content of the sugar cane begins to decrease soon after

The report features a detailed demand analysis discussing the actual demand for sugar and other
sweeteners, molasses and bagasse and their per capital consumption in India. This includes a
trend analysis in demand in various regions of the country. As the industry is a fragmented one,
even leading players do not control more than 4 percent market in India. However, the situation
is changing and players of late are striving to increase their market share either by acquiring
smaller mills or by going for green field capacity additions. Another notable trend is the shift
from molasses and bagass to sugar in the rural areas. This should further increase the per capital
consumption of sugar in India. Beside the Indian urban market is slowly moving towards
branded sugar. The major revenue drivers like changes in the government’s policies and
increasing per capital consumption have been comprehensively pictured in the report. The report
ends with outlook for the sugar industry both at the Indian and international levels.

Employee Welfare is a dynamic concept as new welfare measures are added to the living bones along
with social changes. It's also a comprehensive concept. The ultramodern conception of employee welfare
entails all those conditioning of the employers which are directed towards furnishing the workers with
certain installations and services in addition to stipend or hires.
workers are one of the most important coffers of the organisation and it's important that the physical and
internal wellbeing of the workers is assured. For this, the organisation has to view workers as an
investment rather than as an expenditure. This is essential as the profitability of the organisation is
directly linked with the productivity of the pool.
So, it's essential that the physical, internal and emotional well-being of workers is assured so that a
motivated and loyal workforce is created which works with full commitment towards the achievement
of organisational goals. According to ILO, “Employee welfare should be understood as similar service,
installations and amenities which may be established in or in the vicinity of undertakings to enable the
persons employed in them to perform their work in healthy and peaceful surroundings and to mileage of
installations which ameliorate their health and bring high morale”.
Welfare work is the task to be done by the employer freely for the intellectual, physical, moral, and
profitable betterment of workers, over and above which is laid down by law, or what's anticipated as a
part of contractual benefits for which the employee may have bargained.
1. Furnishing provocation: workers working in the association are precious means, who need
to be motivated from time to time. The company can borrow colourful measures to motivate
them; one of the measures amongst them is furnishing welfare installations as described over,
i.e., Statutory and voluntary services or installations.
3. Increases Productivity: Motivated workers always serve the association better productivity,
which enhances the companies as well as their career growth day by day. It's one of the long-
term objects of furnishing welfare measures to the workers.
4. Creating Goodwill: Companies try to produce and maintain their goodwill in the request full
of completion by furnishing applicable employee benefits to their workers. It also helps them to
attract talented workers to join their company.
5. Creates Strong employer- employee bond: furnishing employee welfare benefits acts as a
give and take relationship amongst the employer and the workers. still, it builds a strong bond
amongst them, and employee also tries to give his/ her stylish for the development of the
association by showing their involvement in their work and furnishing applicable results as
achievements, if workers need is taken into consideration by the employer.
1. Statutory Employee Welfare: The government has passed a number of legislations in order to set
minimal standards of safety and welfare for the workers at their plant. Provisions have been made for
the welfare installations similar as washing, storing, first- aid appliances, hours of work, sanitation, etc.
2. Voluntary Employee Welfare: The employers freely have Employee Welfare amenities to the
workers besides the statutory installations. They're more concerned with the welfare of their workers.
Organizations similar as Godrej and L & T give acceptable transport and analogous other installations
to their employees. Installations for recreation, medical treatment, free reflections or subsidized
rejections, lessoning installations for children, and sports and games are employed by numerous
associations. Organizations have given openings to work with flexible working schedules. It helps to
meet business commitments while at the same time supporting one’s particular life needs. Organizations
also give Medi- claim insurance content to workers for charges relating to hospitalization due to illness,
complaint, and injury. importunity programs are also made to cover importunity of any kind to workers.
The voluntary welfare installations may also be classified as those employees within and outside the
plant premises. i)Welfare and amenities within the plant demesne. ii) Welfare and installations outside
the plant demesne. Welfare and amenities within the plant demesne include ;(i) provision for toilets and
urinals,( ii) washing and bathing, (iii) preschools, (iv) rest harbour’s and canteens,(v) arrangement of
drinking water,( vi) arrangement for preventions of fatigue, (vii) executive arrangement within the
factory to look after welfare, (viii) uniforms and defensive apparel, and (ix) shift.
• Working Hours Limit: As per labour act, the time for which the employee will work is defined
as a maximum of 9 hours per day, if any overtime work is taken above 9 hours it'll be remunerated
twice the regular payment for an hour.
• Providing First Aid Facility: furnishing acceptable first aid installations to the workers are moral
as well as statutory responsibility of the employer against his/ her employees. So that in case of
any medical exigency or mishappening timely and applicable treatment can be employed.
• Canteen Facility: Every association should have an installation of a canteen for the workers
within an association so that they need not rush outdoors for lunch. however, free refection’s
services are piecemeal from this service as they're voluntary services employed by the association
to their workers, but canteen installation is a paid service by an association, and thus the employee
needs to pay from his fund for the food or libation he she consumes.
• Drinking- Water installation: An association must fulfill the general musts of an employee
within an association, and the drinking water is one of the essential needs of any mortal; therefore,
it’s the responsibility of the employer to look after this service inescapably.
• Sanitation Facility: Furnishing proper sanitation installations to the workers working in the
association is legal as well as the moral duty of the employer. Separate toilets should be employed
for manly and womanish workers.
• Washing installation: Segregate washing space should be employed for the workers of the
association.
• Maternity Benefits: This installation is employed by the womanish workers of the company while
they conceive or give birth to a child, the employee gets pay without work as an employee benefit
and a leave of 6 months for taking care of her child.
B. Voluntary Measures
These are the measures which are freely employed by the employer to the workers without and legal
obligation just to grease them as much as the employer can.
• Recreation installations are the installations employed to the workers to refresh them from the
stress and burden of nonstop work; the installations involve gaming, gym and organizing small
get-to- gathers. However, the employer isn't fairly bound to give similar installations, but with an
adding stress position now-a-days the big transnational companies give similar installations to their
workers at their cost, to ameliorate the effectiveness of the workers.
• Education Facility Some association facilitates the training installations for the children of the
workers working in their association; still, it isn't a statutory obligation for an employer it
completely depends upon the employer’s capability and wishes to give similar installation or not.
• Transport Facility Organizations which emphasis concern towards their workers and take care
about their safety facilitates the hack installation, especially considering their womanish
employee’s safety, as working hours may differ and shifts may vary from day to night.
• Free Meal Facility potables and snacks employed to the workers during the working hours are
known as a free mess installation employee to the workers. However, an employee cannot claim
2. Popular Values
The Republic is grounded in social justice. It's grounded on the principle of equity and equivalency. The
widening gap between the rich and the poor is an unhealthy sign of republic. The working class, thus,
must be employee’s welfare amenities, that will help reduce the income gaps and would, eventually,
affect advanced job satisfaction.
3. Fair Wages
The services should meet the workers’ real needs. This means that the operation must determine, with
active involvement by the workers, what the true requirements of the employee are. A cafeteria may be
used to manage the operation. The principle of the acceptability of stipend concedes that labour welfare
services aren't a cover for stipend, rather, it's to motivate the workers for better performance. And that
would affect a better working and social life for workers.
4. Work effectiveness
However, it'll affect in enhancement in their work effectiveness, which will affect in advanced
productivity and lesser competitive advantage for the diligence, If the assiduity provides labour welfare
services and amenities to the workmen.
5. Reconstruction of Personality
When the requirements and bourns of workers are taken care of, it results in the development of a positive
approach in the pool. The positive atmosphere created results in a change in the personality of workers.
With the bettered artificial relations situation, gradationally the personalities of the officers and the
workmen get reconstructed in a positive manner.
