Rule 38. The manner of providing alternative employment under sub-clause (d) of clause (A) of sub-section (1) of section 38

(1) If employment of any worker or group of workers is affected due to an order issued by an Inspector cum Facilitator under Sub-Section 1(A)(a) of section 38 of the code, the occupier of the factory shall provide an alternate employment without causing any reduction in the wages being paid to the worker or workers immediately before issue of such an order. The occupier shall, to the extent practicable, provide the said alternate employment in a job matching the existing skill sets of the workers and, in the absence of such an employment, any other job mutually acceptable to the worker and occupier shall be arranged, provided that the safety and health of the workers at work is not affected by such alternate employment. In no case shall the workers be compelled to perform a job that they consider not suitable or acceptable to them, and in all such instances, the wages shall be paid in full, even without alternate employment

Provided that the safety and health of the workers at work is not affected by such alternate employment, and in no case, the workers shall be compelled to perform a job which the workers consider not suitable or acceptable to them and in all such instances, the wages shall be paid in full even without alternate employment.

(2) The occupier of the factory, after having provided such alternate employment, shall send a notice to the Chief inspector-cum-Facilitator within 24 hours of provision of such employment.
