“The registration through the net also provided for automatic permission to regulate their own hours of work and weekly off days, which has been the persistent demand of the traders for some time,” Singh said.
He said that e-governance had been introduced in the department with a view to enhance efficiency in the working of the department and giving quick relief to the workers.
Online registration and licensing of factories under the Factories Act was also launched in October last year, the minister said.
