SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:

To study/analyze the welfare facilities provided by the company.

Scope of the study
The scope of employee Welfare cannot be limited, since it differs according to social customs
and the degree of industrialization indifferent countries and at different times. They have to be
elastic and flexible enough to suit the conditions of the workers, and to include all the essential
prerequisites of life and the minimum basic amenities. The laws of every country highlight
directions to specific application to the working class,
the necessity of securing just and humane conditions of work, for them. However, what these
conditions actually imply cannot be specified in rigid terms for all times and situations.
Thus, the subject of Labor Welfare is fairly wide and is not limited to anyone country, region or
industry. Writers and institutions have described its scope in different ways and from different
angles. The line of demarcation cannot be very precise. But what should be
common is that a welfare measure should enhance the working and living conditions of the
workers and their families and make their lives better worth living. In other words, Labour
Welfare policies should “Enable workers to live a richer and more satisfactory life”.

department
iii.There will have zero accident for company.
