Labour welfare and industrial hygiene during COVID-19

ABSTRACT

This .study aims to define essential principles that the organization must follow in labour welfare during COVID-19. It is a vital facet of industrial relations, the extra dimension that provides satisfaction to workers in a way that no amount of money can do so. The government initiates statutory laws from time to time to bring about some uniformity in the basic facilities provided to industrial workers since it is not confident that all employers are progressive and provide basic welfare measures. Industrial hygiene has been defined as science and art devoted to the anticipation, recognition, evaluation, and control of those environmental factors or stress arising in or from the workplace, which may cause sickness, impaired health, and significant stress among workers or the citizens of the community. Because it is a labor-intensive sector, it has a greater emphasis on employee welfare. The authors choose a bakery industry personnel's stress analysis during COVID-19 for this research work. © 2023 by IGI Global. All rights reserved.
