>>>Designation alone does not decide that employee shall be covered as ‘Workman’ as in ID Act, ‘Employee’ as in Shops and Commercial Establishments Act .

>>> Trade Unions like CITU,INTUC,AITUC,BMS………….are more than willing to embrace the employees from all trades.
United employees can rake up any issue with Govt. Employee’s is a big community and huge vote bank that NO party/Govt can ignore.
The unions can help to form 'Works Committee' in company. It is an authority under ID Act.The Chairman is from employees/employer on rotation and committee has equal number of members from employees.
The Industrial Disputes Act, 1947: CHAPTER II: AUTHORITIES UNDER THIS ACT
3. Works Committee
The unions can negotiate service conditions and standing orders shall be certified only after parleys with employees representatives/unions.
For the present issues, exploitation that employees in IT/ITeS/BPO/KPO sector's face Pan India the employees unions affilliated with Trade Unions is immediate need of hour and is also a perfect solution.
Are you aware that employers in your trade have formed their unions?
Then why don't employees unite?
Unions are very active and strong and formidable.
