The Essence

the genesis

In 1968, the Government appointed “the Committee on Unfair Labour Practices”. It was meant to define certain activities of employers and workers and their organisations which should be treated as unfair labour practices and for suggesting action which should be taken against employers or workers, or their organisations, for engaging in such unfair labour practices. From this emerged The Maharashtra Recognition of Trade Unions and Prevention of Unfair Labour Practices Act

misery and despair into hope and progress
