CM Dhami hails labor reforms as a new era for workers, ensuring social security, better work environment, and promoting a self-reliant India.

Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami has hailed the central government’s labor reforms, describing them as the beginning of a new era for the nation’s workforce. Speaking on Saturday, CM Dhami emphasized that the implementation of the four labor codes is a historic step in realizing Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of a self-reliant India. He also expressed gratitude to the Prime Minister for these reforms, which are bringing significant changes to the country’s work culture.

Labor Codes to Protect 40 Crore Workers

According to CM Dhami, the newly implemented labor codes are crucial for providing social security to over 40 crore workers across India. Under the previous system, workers in the unorganized sector were largely outside the legal framework, depriving them of basic rights such as timely wages and social security benefits. Moreover, minimum wage provisions were limited to select sectors, leaving a large workforce unprotected.

Old Labor Laws Hindered Business and Investment

The Chief Minister pointed out that earlier labor laws had a negative impact on ease of doing business and foreign investment. The outdated ‘Inspector Raj’ system often created challenges for industries and entrepreneurs. By implementing comprehensive labor reforms, the central government has taken a decisive step toward modernizing India’s labor framework.

New Laws Strengthen Worker Rights

CM Dhami highlighted that the new labor codes strongly protect workers’ interests. Key provisions include universal minimum wages, timely payment of salaries, mandatory issuance of appointment letters, and rights for women workers such as equal pay and permission to work night shifts. These measures are aimed at empowering the workforce and ensuring fair treatment for all.

The new laws also mandate gratuity for contract workers after one year of service, free annual health check-ups, and 100% health safety for employees in hazardous industries. These steps are designed to safeguard the welfare and security of all workers.

Benefits for Workers and Industries Alike

According to CM Dhami, these reforms will not only provide social security and a better work environment for workers but also create a favorable climate for industries and businesses. This is expected to increase investment and accelerate economic activities in the state. He expressed confidence that the new labor codes will benefit both workers and industries across Uttarakhand and the entire country.
