INTRODUCTION

Employee welfare is a term including various services, benefits and facilities offered to employees by the
employers. The welfare measures need not be monetary but in any kind/forms. This includes items such as
allowances, housing, transportation, medical insurance and food. Employee welfare also includes monitoring
of working conditions, creation of industrial harmony through infrastructure for health, industrial relations
and insurance against disease, accident and unemployment for the workers and their families. Through these
generous benefits the organisation makes life worth living for employees. Welfare includes the activities that
is done for the improvement and comfort of employees and is provided over and more than the wages.
Welfare measures helps in maintaining the morale and motivation of the employees high so as to retain the
employees for longer periods. This welfare need not be in monetary terms but in any kind/forms. Employee
welfare includes monitoring of working conditions, creation of industrial harmony through infrastructure for
health, industrial relations and insurance against disease, accident and unemployment for the workers and
their families. The following are the features of employee welfare:

 Employee welfare is a comprehensive term including various services, facilities and amenities

 Provided to employees for their better living, Welfare measures are in addition to regular wages and
other economic benefits available

 Employees under legal provisions and collective bargaining. The basic purpose of employee welfare
is to develop the lot of the working class and thereby developing a sense of belongingness

 Employee welfare is an essential part of social welfare. It involves adjustment of an employee's

work life and family life to the community or social life.

 Welfare measures may be both statutory and voluntary.

The concept of Labour welfare is elastic and flexible and differs widely with regions, time, industries,
country, social values and customs, the degree of industrialization, the general social economic development
of people and political ideologies prevailing at particular moments. However, the Committee on Labour
Welfare (1969) defined the phrase to mean, “Such facilities and amenities as adequate canteens, rest and
recreation facilities, sanitary and medical facilities arrangements for travel to and from and for
accommodation of workers employed at a distance from their homes, and such other services, amenities and
facilities including social security measures as contribute to conditions under which workers are
employed.”The concept of labour welfare has received inspiration from the concept of democracy and
welfare state.
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
