Labour198110 sections

This Act regulates the payment of unemployment allowance to workmen in factories within the state of Gujarat. It applies to all enrolled workmen, including permanent, temporary, and Badli workers, when an employer cannot provide employment due to power cuts or restrictions mandated by the Bombay Electricity Act. The law ensures that workers receive financial support during such periods by paying them 50 percent of their basic wages and dearness allowance for the days they are unable to work, thereby protecting their livelihood during energy supply disruptions.
