Staff Reporter


Government urged to set up welfare board


BANGALORE: Members of the Hotel Employees’ Federation of India staged a dharna in front of Mahatma Gandhi Statue here on Monday urging the State Government to set up a welfare board for hotel employees. Vice-president of the federation G.R. Shivashankar said that Labour Department had failed in safeguarding the interest of employees who had been deprived of the benefits under the provisions of various labour-related laws.

The living conditions of many hotel employees were pathetic and many were not getting minimum wages and other facilities such as provident fund, insurance, he added. He said that the federation had submitted a memorandum to the Chief Minister’s office urging the Government to fulfil over 20 demands.
