In News: Provisions in the proposed Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2019 (OSH Code) will make it mandatory for firms employing more than 250 people to have welfare officers, against the current threshold of 500.

About OSH Code

  • The Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, 2020 (“OSH Code“) received the President’s assent on September 28, 2020.
  • Free health checkup once a year by the employer for workers which are more than a certain age.
  • A legal right for getting an Appointment Letter given to workers for the first time.
