Under the Industrial Relations Code, 2020, the total number of members of a Grievance Redressal Committee constituted in an industrial establishment shall not exceed how many members, and what is the specific requirement regarding representation of women?

Section 4 of the Industrial Relations Code, 2020 provides that the total number of members of the Grievance Redressal Committee shall not exceed ten. The Committee is to have an equal number of members representing the employer and the workers. Importantly, there must be adequate representation of women workers, and the number of women members shall be in the proportion of women workers to the total number of workers, and in any case shall not be less than that proportion. The Committee addresses individual grievances of workers, and an aggrieved worker dissatisfied with its decision may raise the matter further. This ensures fair and representative resolution of individual disputes at the establishment level.
