The NGOs/ Civil Society groups can play a significant role in mobilizing public opinion
and spreading the awareness about legal rights of the workers which helps in the proper
implementation of the law. They have the capabilities to arose a massive public
movement and pressurize the Government on certain labour related issues like
abolition/ regulation of laws. They can ask for submission of reports, or file petitions in
courts on behalf of labours with limited resources. In developing countries like India,
such bodies play a special role and contribute to pave the vast gap between the needy
and the resourceful.
Various Roles played by NGOs are:
Technical Assistance: NGOs provide technical and legal assistance to the plaintiff
by filing the cases for them or assisting them with PILs
Mediatory Role: NGOs provide legal advice and communication with the State
and Central advisory boards
Consultative role: NGOs advise the plaintiffs about the course of action that
should be taken in case of exploitation or where the contract labour act was
violated.
Facilitating communication between the contractor and the labourers. The labour
unions facilitate the communication of issues and opinions from the labourer
point of view.
