[#754] Which of the following is an intra-mural activity?
Correct Answer
(B) Housing accommodation
Explanation
Solution: Welfare activities under labour welfare can be classified into intra-mural and extra-mural activities . Intra-mural activities are those welfare measures that are provided within the industrial establishment or factory premises and are directly related to the working conditions of employees. Housing accommodation is considered an intra-mural activity because it is provided by the employer, often near or within the industrial premises, to facilitate comfortable living conditions for the workers. Other options like fair price shops and vocational training for dependents are extra-mural activities as they occur outside the immediate workplace. Gratuity is a statutory terminal benefit and not classified under intra-mural or extra-mural welfare activities. Therefore, the correct answer is Housing accommodation, as it is an intra-mural welfare activity.
