Question

how to improve working conditions of women in plantations​

Answer 1

$\large\green{\textsf{✩ Verified Answer ✓ }}$

The tea estate sector of India is one of the oldest and largest formal private employers. Workers are dependent on plantation estates for a range of basic services under the 1951 Plantation Labour Act and have been subject to human rights violations. Ad hoc reports related to poor health outcomes exist, yet their determinants have not been systematically studied. This study in Assam, situated in Northeast India, sought to understand the Social Determinants of Health (SDH) of women plantation workers with an aim to offer directions for policy action.

Years of subjugation of workers have led to their deep distrust in the system of which they are part. Acting on SDH will take time, deeper understanding of their relative and/or synergistic contribution, and require the building of stakeholdership. Notwithstanding this, to have heard from women workers themselves has been an important step in visibilizing and building accountability for action on the health and SDH of women in plantation estates.

HERE IS UR ANSWER

$_____________________________$

Since ancient times, women in India are making financial

contribution for the betterment of their families. Their participation in

economic activities of the country has grown enormously after rapid

industrialization in post independence era. Increased participation of

women in economic activities on one hand has helped them to narrow

down the gap between their needs and resources, while on the other hand

it has given rise to a number of complex problems having a direct bearing

on their Socio-economic Conditions.

To solve the problems faced by the women workers engaged in

various industries, a sound planning based on accurate and reliable data

bank is needed. Accordingly, the present scheme titled “Socio-economic

Conditions of Women Workers in Industry” was taken up by the Bureau,

during the year 1975 – “The International Women’s Year”. Initially, the

scheme was confined to the organised sector only. However, keeping in

view the utility of the data so generated, it was considered to extend the

scope of scheme to the Un-organised Sector as well. A beginning was

made by covering Building and Construction industry followed by

Handloom, Khadi, Beedi, Readymade Garments, Agarbathi, Lime

Manufacturing, Cashewnut Processing and Food processing Industry

(including Sea Food and Marine Products). The present report relates to

the Plantation Sector.

I am thankful to the various departments of the Central

Government, and the States, especially the States Labour Departments,

for their whole hearted Co-operation in the conduct of the study. I also

extend my thanks to all the employers and workers of the sampled units

who willingly furnished detailed information for the study.
