Labour Codes will weaken workers’ rights, says CITU leader
CITU all-India secretary Karumalaiyan has claimed that the four Labour Codes will weaken workers' rights, stating that the central trade unions are opposing the proposed changes. During a two-day workshop on the Labour Codes at Yechuri Bhavan in Maddilapalem, Mr. Karumalaiyan expressed concerns that the Codes would hinder the formation of trade unions and collective bargaining.
He criticized provisions requiring prior notice for strikes and limitations during conciliation proceedings. Mr. Karumalaiyan also mentioned that the Codes would simplify procedures for closing establishments, favoring employers and corporate organizations. CITU State president Ch. Narsinga Rao and workers from various public-sector organizations participated in the workshop.
