Sunrise Textiles Pvt. Ltd., Surat, employs 45 workers and has no grievance forum. Under the Industrial Relations Code, 2020, which statement about its obligation is correct?

Sunrise Textiles must have one or more Grievance Redressal Committees because it employs forty-five workers, which is above the twenty-worker threshold. The duty applies automatically to every such establishment and does not depend on a Government order, a trade union or a hundred-worker limit.

  1. AIt must have one or more Grievance Redressal Committees, since it employs twenty or more workersCorrect
  2. BIt need not have any such committee unless it employs at least one hundred workers
  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 exists in the establishment

Explanation

Section 4(1) requires every industrial establishment employing twenty or more workers to have one or more Grievance Redressal Committees. The threshold of one hundred relates to the Works Committee, which also depends on a Government order, so that option confuses the two forums.
