It will be considered contempt of Supreme court order because in an Suemoto action on non implementation of minimum wage ,Chief Justice order to inspect the factories and to report the court every month on the subject. If the labour inspection is banned than how would concern government department report to the apex court? Said Nasir Mansoor.
NTUF demanded from the Sindh Labour Ministry and especially from Labour Minister to clarify their position in respect of that unlawful act which is contrary to the existing labour laws and against the ILO conventions.
NTUF also asked the country representative of ILO to look into that grave violation of labour right and ILO basic conventions and use its good office to prevent the Sindh government from implementing it in practice.
The trade union body emphases that Sindh government has been toeing the line of Punjab government who had also put ban on Labour Inspection on the demand of industrialist. And her act has been questioned by the ILO and other local and international bodies.
NTUF has appealed to all trade union representatives to raise their voice against the labour inspection ban on the pressure on the capitalists and asked for joint strategy to cope with the situation.
NTUF warned that labour department should not use the labour inspection as leverage for their self interest but for the betterment of working conditions of the workers.
