In the coming years our country’s growth to a large extent will depend on the success  of our skill training programmes. A sound industrial climate will lay the foundation of country’s prosperity and well-being of the workers.” Shri Mallikarjun Kharge, the Union Labour and Employment Minister laid special emphasis on these issues. He was addressing the State Labour Ministers on the occasion 43rd State Labour Ministers’ Conference held at Vigyan Bhawan. Shri Kharge reminded that Labour is a concurrent subject in our Constitution. Both Central and State Governments have an important role in ensuring the effective implementation of the existing statutes. It is also necessary that we bring forth progressive legislations to meet the aspirations of the working class. 2.Union Labour minister explained that the labour legislations broadly cover the four areas namely – Industrial Relations, Wages, Working Conditions and Social Security. The primary purpose of various enactments in the area of labour is to protect the working class from exploitation, provide healthy working conditions and enable them to make a decent and dignified living. 3.Shri Kharge stated that our country is an emerging economy and the large informal sector poses a mammoth challenge. 94% of our work force is in the informal sector where the implementation of labour laws is difficult. Making the benefits of various government schemes reach this sector is also a gigantic task. In view of the enormity of our responsibility, both central and states have to join hands and work very closely. We also have to take along all the other stake-holders.
