Principles of Labour Welfare

1) every type of welfare service should be subjected to periodic review and evaluation so as to see the effectiveness of the existing services,
 

2) services available at the community level should always be watched to avoid the duplication of services so as to utilize them effectively for the welfare of their employees.
3) employee’s welfare plans will be of no good if the wage, structure and working conditions are bad. These are foundations until this is sound, service plan should be delayed.
 

4) a plan should not be taken up unless they are willing to support it with their time, effort and sometimes money. Free service is seldom appreciated.
 

5) a plan should be started with minimum of financial allotment otherwise there is danger that employees will wonder whether or not plans are being financed at the expense of their low wages.
 

6) communication between worker and management should also be improved through suggestion system in order to obtain the views of employees, reactions to management’s methods and practices.
 

7) administration of welfare service must be done jointly, the Labour Welfare Officer, should only assist in a staff capacity- he plans the programme, arranges technical services, mobilizes the existing resources and generates participation by workers.
