The Tata Trust has come up with a proposal to constitute migrant labourers cooperative society, an umbrella organisation that will act as bridge between the employers and labourers, particularly the migrants from Odisha and Telangana. The Tata Trust has mooted the formation of the society in consultation with the Labour departments of the two States at a meeting of the officials and brick kiln owners on Saturday. The proposal comes in the light of series of reports of migrant labour being exploited by kiln owners, who were reportedly paying lesser wages and not providing basic amenities at the work sites.
