What this Gazette does
The Tamil Nadu Government Gazette Extraordinary dated 19th February 2014 carries three Labour and Employment Department notifications under the Tamil Nadu Manual Workers (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Work) Act, 1982.
They do three separate things:
- G.O. Ms. No. 21, Labour and Employment (I2), 19th February 2014, nominates the Chairman and members of the Tamil Nadu Construction Workers Welfare Board.
- G.O. Ms. No. 22, Labour and Employment (I.1), 19th February 2014, reconstitutes the Advisory Committee under the Act.
- G.O. Ms. No. 23, Labour and Employment (I 1), 19th February 2014, nominates the Chairman and members of the Tamil Nadu Manual Workers Social Security and Welfare Board.
Who may care about it
This Gazette matters mainly to:
- construction workers and other manual workers covered by the Act,
- employers and employer associations in these sectors,
- trade unions and worker representatives,
- officials dealing with labour welfare administration in Tamil Nadu.
For most property buyers or land owners, it does not change land rights, registration, planning permission or property tax. It is about who sits on labour welfare bodies and the advisory committee created under the Act.
