CS Executive · Setting Up of Business, Industrial and Labour Laws · The Code on Social Security, 2020

Under the Code on Social Security, 2020, an advisory firm is asked how often the National Social Security Board for unorganised workers must meet. Which statement is correct?

The National Social Security Board must meet at least thrice a year. The meeting time, place and procedure are prescribed by the Central Government. The once-in-a-quarter rule applies to the State Unorganised Workers' Board, not to the national board.

  1. AAt least once a year
  2. BAt least twice a year
  3. CAt least thrice a yearCorrect
  4. DAt least once in every quarter

Explanation

The Code provides that the National Social Security Board shall meet at least thrice a year, at such time and place and under such rules of procedure as the Central Government prescribes. The quarterly requirement belongs to the State Unorganised Workers' Board, so it is the key distractor.
