Sunrise Textiles Pvt Ltd in Surat employs 45 workers and has no Grievance Redressal Committee. Under the Industrial Relations Code, 2020, what is the position?

Sunrise Textiles must have one or more Grievance Redressal Committees, because the Code makes this mandatory for every industrial establishment employing twenty or more workers. The hundred-worker threshold applies to Works Committees, not to grievance committees.

  1. AIt need not have one because the threshold is 100 workers
  2. BIt must have one or more Grievance Redressal Committees because it employs twenty or more workersCorrect
  3. CIt must have one only if the appropriate Government issues a special order
  4. DIt must have one only if a registered Trade Union demands it

Explanation

Section 4(1) requires every industrial establishment with twenty or more workers to have one or more Grievance Redressal Committees. The 100-worker threshold belongs to the Works Committee, which is also conditional on a Government order. Sunrise, with 45 workers, is therefore covered.
