Labour Minister Oscar Fernandes today launched a unified single portal which will facilitate ease of reporting at one place for various labour laws, consolidated information of labour inspection and its enforcement.
"The web portal will enhance convenience of reporting, transparency in labour inspection and monitoring of labour inspections based on key performance indices and provide an effective grievance redressal system hyperlinked with Department of Administrative Reforms and Public Grievances portal," he said.
To begin with, the Ministry has selected the Chief Labour Commissioner (Central) organisation, the Employees State Insurance Corporation (ESIC) and the Employees Provident Fund Organisation (EPFO) to join the portal.
Other statutes and state governments can also join this Unified Single Web Portal subsequently, he said.
The web portal is being developed and maintained by the National Informatics Centre (NIC).
