## STATEMENT REFERRED TO IN REPLY TO PARA (a) to (d) OF THE LOK SABHA  STARRED  QUESTION  NO.  295  REGARDING  'VIOLATION  OF LABOUR LAWS' FOR ANSWER ON 22.03.2017

The  government  maintains  a  database  of  workers  of  Emigration  Check Required (ECR) category proceeding for overseas employment to the 18 notified ECR countries. Country-wise and State-wise details of ECR category emigrant workers for 2016  are  enclosed  at  Annexure-I.  As  per  inputs  from  Indian  Missions  and  Posts abroad, there are over 30 million Overseas Indians. Country-wise details are enclosed at Annexure- II. The student module on the MADAD portal (Online Consular Service Management) has also been started from 15.07.2016 and 10523 students have been registered so far.

2. Complaints are received from Indian emigrant workers in ECR countries, from time  to  time,  regarding  violation  of  contractual  terms,  adverse  working  conditions, wage  related  issues,  employer  related  problems,  medical  and  insurance  related problems and compensation/death claims. Amidst the ongoing economic downturn in the  Gulf  countries  due  to  fall  in  crude  oil  prices,  there  are  some  reports  of  Indian workers being asked to leave before completion of their existing contracts. Instances of unpaid salaries for last few months have also been reported.

3. The government is working in close coordination with foreign governments to address concerns related to employment and welfare of Indian workers.  Immediately on receipt of such complaints, the same are addressed by Indian Missions by taking them up with the concerned foreign authorities. Labour and Manpower Cooperation MoUs/Agreements are already in place with the six Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries, Jordan and Malaysia that provide the institutional framework to comprehensively discuss and review these matters.

4. The  Indian  Community  Welfare  Fund  (ICWF),  aimed  at  assisting  Overseas Indian  nationals  abroad  in  times  of  distress  on  a  means  tested  basis  in  the  most deserving cases, has already been extended to all Indian Missions and Posts abroad. The 'MADAD' portal, an important initiative of the Ministry, is an effort to extend a helping hand to Indians abroad requiring consular assistance. It enables online logging and tracking of grievances including by emigrant workers and their family members.

As  of  now,  19,775  grievances  have  been  registered  on  the  portal  and  15094 grievances have been resolved so far.  The E-Migrate system provides the government a  comprehensive  and  online  database  of  emigrants,  Missions,  Recruiting  Agents, Foreign  Employers  and  Insurance  Agencies  and  is  helpful  in  making  the  whole emigration cycle faster, transparent and allows authentication/verification of credentials of all the stakeholders.

5. Indian  Worker  Resource  Centres  (IWRCs)  have  been  setup  that  provide guidance  and  counselling  on  all  matters  pertaining  to  overseas  Indian  workers. IWRCs in Dubai (UAE), Riyadh and Jeddah (Saudi Arabia) and Kuala Lumpur are already  functional  while  another  one  in  Sharjah  (UAE)  will  be  operational  soon. Shelter homes for distressed Indian nationals have been setup in Bahrain, Kingdom of Saudi  Arabia,  Kuwait,  Qatar,  UAE  and  Malaysia.  Missions  in  Gulf  countries  also conduct Open Houses on a regular basis where workers can convey their grievances. Some Missions have established 24x7 help lines and Toll Free help lines. The multilingual 24X7 Helpline of Overseas Workers Resource Centre (OWRC) in Gurugram, Haryana provides information and guidance on all matters and problems pertaining to overseas employment of Indian nationals. Migrant Resource Centres have also been setup in Kochi, Hyderabad Gurugram, Chennai and Lucknow.

6. The  India  Centre  for  Migration  (formerly  Indian  Council  for  Overseas Employment) serves as a research think-tank of the Ministry on all matters related to international  migration  and  is  assisting  in  policy-making  on  matters  related  to emigrating workers and promoting overseas employment of Indians.

7. The government has been making all possible efforts towards ensuring welfare and safeguarding the interests of Indian nationals abroad.
