Labour Ministry seeks report from TN govt over reports of married women denied work at Foxconn plant
The Union Ministry of Labour and Employment has sought a detailed report from the Tamil Nadu Labour Department amid reports that married women are not allowed to work at the Foxconn India Apple iPhone plant.
Section 5 of the Equal Remuneration Act 1976 stipulates that no discrimination is to be made while recruiting men and women workers, the Labour Ministry said in a statement. As the State government is the appropriate authority for the enforcement and administration of the provisions of this Act, the report has been sought from it, it stated.
