| Pushing to fast track reforms, the Labour Ministry plans to place as many as six bills before Parliament in the Winter Session starting next month.
"A lot of work has been done on six legislations under the labour reform process. Ministry is keen to push all of them for passage in the Winter Session of Parliament next month," said a source.
They include Child Labour (Prohibition & Regulation) Amendment Bill, 2012 and Payment of Bonus (Amendment) Bill, 2015, which have already been approved by the Cabinet, the source added.
The ministry has also completed tripartite consultations on the Labour Code on Industrial Relations, 2015; Small Factories (Regulation of Employment and Conditions of Services) Bill, 2014 and Labour Code on Wages. These are with Law Ministry for vetting, the source said.
Once approved, these bills will be sent to the Cabinet for approval and then to Parliament for passage.
The ministry will soon prepare a draft Cabinet proposal on an amendment bill for the Employees' Provident Fund & Miscellaneous Provisions Bill for inter-ministerial consultation. After that, it will be sent to the Law Ministry and subsequently to Union Cabinet for approval. Once the mandatory approvals are through, it will be placed before the Parliament for passage.
Labour Minister Bandaru Dattatreya had last month said: "Child Labour Amendment Bill, EPF Bill and Payment of Bonus Bill would come in Winter Session for passage."
He had also said: "If time permits we will bring in Code on Wages and Code on industrial relations. Once again we will go for consultation (on these bills) and then go to Cabinet to proceed with these legislations."
