Housing co operative society

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 17 March 2024 This query is : Resolved 
We ARE A CO-OPERATIVE SOCIETY IN NAVI MUMBAI
Tower 1 - 2 watchman (12 hours shift) AT Present (1 watchman 24 hours)
Tower 2 - 2 watchman (12-hour shift) AT Present 1 (watchman 24 hours)
8-row houses-2 watchman (12 hours ) AT Present 1 (watchman 24 hours)
It's Human to make a person work for 24 hours and the only break he takes is toilets and food and returns. The watchmen sleep in the night and security is compromised
What is the best option to take strict action against the Secretary and Chairman since they are adamant about joint registrar/ Labour commissioner / Police station Please advise and if there is any robbery who is responsible

You raise this point in the meeting of AGM. What is the opinion of the other flat owners? The watchmen shall report that they cannot continuously for 24 hours with small breaks and give them 12 hours of duty and mark the same copy to the Joint/Dy. Registrar of Cooperative Housing Society of your district. The flat owners also complain to the Joint/Dy. Registrar.

The watchmen who relentlessly and continuously work for 24 hours all 24/7 should actually object to this.
The poor watchmen cannot be exploited by the society taking advantage of their employment issues.
You can report about this to the labor commissioner with a complaint besides taking up the matter before the extra general body meeting and find a solution for this.
The police or the Dy. Registrar will not interfere in this administrative functions because the society has not committed any offence
