1.1 INTRODUCTION TO EMPLOYEE WELFARE Welfare includes anything that is done for the comfort and improvement of employees and is provided over and above the wages. Welfare helps in keeping the morale and motivation motiv ation of the employ employees ees high so as to retai retain n the employ employees ees for longer duration.

1.1.1 We Welfare: lfare: Welfare is the provision and maintenance of the conditions of life for individuals by the community.Welfare has a positive a positive and negative negative aspect. Negative aspect. Negative welfare welfare is the provision by the state or other institutions of a “safety net or the distribution of benefits according to some criteria! so"called positive positive welfare is the provision of opportunities for people to “help themselves. This contrast lies behind foreign"aid strategies which concentrate on providing skills or “seed capital rather than food parcels, for e#ample. The concept of positive and negative welfare is related to the concepts of positive and negative freedom. $ar#ists $ar#ists support both positive and negative negative welfare, welfare, but recognise recognise that the market inevitably generates ine%uality and a class of people inevitably the recipients of welfare, who have nothing to sell but their labour power, alongside a class of people who live off the proceeds of e#ploitation, invariably the providers of welfare. &nly by bringing the means of production under thorough going proletarian democracy can the very need for welfare be abolished.

The fourth principle of labour welfare lays stress on the dictum that to cultivate welfare is to cultivate efficiency.

0ince 0ince indust industria riall organi organisat sation ion is rigid rigid and impers impersonal onal,, the goal goal of welfar welfaree in industry is the enrichment and growth of human personality. The labour welfare movement seeks to bring cheer, comfort, and warmth in the human relationship by treating man as an individual, with %uiet distinct needs and aspirations. 0ocial and cultural programmes, recreation and other measures designed after taking into considerati consideration on the workers intere interests sts go a long way in counteracting counteracting the effects of monotony, boredom, and cheerlessness.

1.1.6 Employee Welfare %#eme$
&rgani*ations provide welfare facilities to their employees to keep their motivation levels high. The employee welfare schemes can be classified into two categories vi*. statutory and non"statutory welfare schemes. The statutory schemes are those schemes that are compulsory to provide by an organi*ation as compliance to the laws governing employee health and safety. These include provisions provided in industrial acts like @actories >ct 3498, +ock Workers >ct 2safety, health and welfare7 348?, $ines >ct 34?'.

The very logic behind providing welfare schemes is to create efficient, healthy, loyal and satisfied labor force for the organi*ation. The purpose of providing such
36
facilities is to make their work life better and also to raise their standard of living. The important benefits of welfare measures can be summari*ed as follows: •
They provide better physical and mental health to workers and thus promote a healthy work environment
•
@acilities like housing schemes, medical benefits, and education and recreation facilities for workers families help in raising their standards of living. This makes workers to pay more attention towards work and thus increases their productivity.
•
Employers get stable labor force by providing welfare facilities. Workers take active interest in their (obs and work with a feeling of involvement and participation.
•
Employee welfare measures increase the productivity of organi*ation and promote healthy industrial relations thereby maintaining industrial peace.

RE4IEW% OF LITERATURE > literature review is a body of te#t that aims to review the critical points of current knowledge on a particular topic. Literature reviews are secondary sources, and as such, do not report any new or original e#perimental work. Ceviews covering some of the areas related to employee welfare are mentioned below:
Da)"$ an 3"&$on 82@@69 described a process through which organi*ations might seek to
implement interventions relating to employee wellbeing. Emphasi*es the importance of a comprehensive needs assessment both in obtaining the breadth of information needed to design appropriate interventions and also in providing baseline information against which to evaluate programme effectiveness.. @inally, provides guidance on programme implementation and evaluation, and discusses some of the advantages and disadvantages of different approaches to tertiary welfare provision.
O$'erman 82@@9 revealed that Migh -erformance Work &rgani*ations 2M-W&s7 took
root in the early 3446s but then faced an environment of organi*ational turmoil and restructuring. This paper, drawing on a second"round survey of employers that replicated and e#tended a 344' survey, addressed two %uestions: whether M-W& practices continued to spread, and whether their productivity and %uality gains redounded to employeesP benefit. The results show that M-W& practices continued to diffuse at a rapid rate between the 344' and 344A survey dates, although more slowly for self"managed teams than for other practices. With regard to the second %uestion, however, the author found that adoption of M-W& practices in 344' was associated with increased layoff rates in subse%uent years and no compensation gains""patterns that appear to result largely because M-W& practices are linked to employment reorgani*ation, such as reductions in contingent and managerial employment.

category. This article offered a more radical criti%ue of this concept. )t argued that most countries practice a dis(ointed set of welfare policies due to the following typical features of welfare policymaking: 237 the cumulative nature of welfare policies, 2'7 the diverse histories of policies in different welfare fields, 217 the involvement of different sets of policy actors, 297 variations in the policymaking process. )t concludes that few national welfare systems are likely to e#hibit the internal consistency necessary to validate the regime concept, and that policy"specific comparisons may be a more promising avenue for comparative research.

This was possible with an understanding of how the parts combine to form cohesive regulatory systems. )n short, ongress overlapped ta# law and labor law to create the bounds of the regulatory systems for employer"provided retirement and healthcare benefits. Within these systems, two types of rules were employed: incentives and sanctions. This article e#plained how all of the pieces fit together to promote retirement and healthcare security, and suggests that a systematic method of analysis may be the best approach for creating the benefits law of tomorrow.

%m"' 82@1!9 e#amined the legal struggle to organi*e and represent family child care

)nternational Gnion 20E)G7 achieved the largest child"care union victory in Gnited 0tates history when it won the right to represent more than 94,666 child care workers in )llinois. The victory, remarkable in its own right, was all the more stunning as the workers were family child care providers, who provide child care for compensation from within their private homes and who are generally regarded as independent contractors who lack collective bargaining rights. 0E)GPs success was made possible by the increasingly public character of family child care. )n the aftermath of welfare reform, local and state governments are compensating family child care providers to care for the children of welfare"to"work recipients. Net while family child care has become critical to low" income
families,

from

the sense of achievement from work between 3448 and '669! a number of other measures of (ob %uality are found to have increased over this period as well. )t also found a decline in the incidence of many formal human resource management practices. The paper reports a weak association between formal human resource management practices and satisfaction with sense of achievement. )mprovements in perceptions of (ob security, the climate of employment relations and managerial responsiveness were the most important factors in e#plaining the rise satisfaction with sense of achievement was due in large part to the e#istence of falling unemployment during the period under study, which has driven employers to make improvements in the %uality of work in satisfaction with sense of achievement between 3448 and '669.
D(man 82@1-9 suggested that collective bargaining was closely related to social policy

however, that trade unions in entral Eastern Europe 2EE7 do not have a strong bargaining position and thus e#ert little impact on policy decisions. This paper challenges the view of EE labour as a uniformly weak actor. )t argues that EE unions ability to shape the bargaining agenda and social policies depends largely on the degree of privati*ation, which overlaps with sectoral divisions.

Cesearch $ethodology is a way to systematically solve the research problem. The Cesearch $ethodology includes the various methods and techni%ues for conducting a Cesearch. “$arketing Cesearch is the systematic design, collection, analysis and reporting of data and finding relevant solution to a specific marketing situation or problem. +. 0lesinger and $. 0tephenson in the encyclopedia of 0ocial 0ciences define Cesearch as “the manipulation of things, concepts or symbols for the purpose of generali*ing to e#tend, correct or verify knowledge, whether that knowledge aids in construction of theory or in the practice of an art. Cesearch is, thus, an original contribution to the e#isting stock of knowledge making for its advancement. The purpose of Cesearch is to discover answers to the Kuestions through the application of scientific procedures. &ur pro(ect has a specified framework for collecting data in an effective manner. 0uch framework is called “ Re$ear# De$"n . The research process followed by us consists of following steps:
-.1 Re$ear# De$"n
Cesearch +esign is a blueprint or framework for conducting the marketing research pro(ect. )t specifies the details of the procedures necessary for obtaining the information needed to structure and solve marketing research problem.
