Ceeta Industries Limited, a company headquartered in Tumkur, Karnataka, has been penalized by the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (MCA) for violating Section 134(3)(q) of the Companies Act, 2013. The violation stems from the company’s failure to include a required statement regarding the constitution of the Internal Complaints Committee (ICC) under the Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace Act, 2013, in their Board reports for the financial year ending on March 31, 2019, and March 31, 2020.

Key point:-

Violation Details: The company did not disclose its compliance with ICC provisions in its Board reports, which was a violation of Section 134(3) of the Companies Act.

Penalties Imposed: The penalties for this violation include a fine of three lakh rupees for the company and fifty thousand rupees each for its Managing Director, CFO (Key Managerial Personnel), and Company Secretary.

Adjudication Process: The violation was identified in July 2021, and the company underwent an adjudication process, including a physical hearing where they argued that the omission was unintentional.

Small Company Argument: The company claimed that, as it had fewer than ten employees in each establishment, it was not obligated to establish an ICC. However, this argument did not exempt them from the penalty.

Importance of Compliance: The article underscores the necessity of adhering to all statutory requirements, no matter how seemingly procedural they appear, to avoid financial penalties and legal actions.

Consequences of Non-Compliance: Failure to comply with the MCA’s order could result in further legal actions under Section 454(8) of the Companies Act, 2013. This case serves as a reminder of the importance of adhering to legal requirements and maintaining regulatory compliance to avoid financial penalties and potential legal consequences.

The 233 meeting of the Central Board of Trustees, EPF was held today in Delhi under the Chairmanship of Shri Bhupendra Yadav, Union Minister for Labour & Employment and Environment, Forest & Climate Change. The Vice-Chairmanship of Shri Rameshwar Teli, Union Minister of State for Labour & Employment, Petroleum & Natural Gas and Co-Vice-Chairpersonship of Ms. Arti Ahuja, Secretary Labour & Employment and the Member Secretary Smt. Neelam Shami Rao, Central P F Commissioner was also present during the meeting.

The Central Board recommended an 8.15 % annual rate of interest to be credited on EPF accumulations in members’ accounts for the financial year 2022-23. The interest rate would be officially notified in the government gazette after approval of the Ministry of Finance, following which EPFO would credit the rate of interest into its subscribers’ accounts.

Here are a few key points to remember about EPF Interest Rate:

● The interest rate of 8.15% has come into effect and will apply to EPF deposits made between April 2022 and March 2023.

● Even though the interest is calculated monthly, it is only deposited to the Employees’ Provident Fund account once a year on March 31st of the applicable fiscal year.

● The transferred interest is added to the next month’s balance, i.e. April’s balance, and is then used to calculate interest.

● If no contributions are made to an EPF account for 36 months in a row, the account becomes dormant or inoperative.

● Employees who have not reached retirement age might earn interest on their inactive accounts.

● Interest is not paid on funds put in retired employees’ inactive accounts.

● The interest collected on dormant accounts is taxed at the member’s slab rate.

● The employee will not receive any interest for payments made by the company to the Employee’ Pension Scheme. However, beyond the age of 58, a pension is provided out of this amount.

Please take note of the same.

Performance management is essential to HR management, but many organizations need help with effective performance management. Fortunately, HRMS software can help mitigate these issues, providing a more streamlined and efficient approach to managing employee performance. Here are five common performance management problems that can be solved with the help of HRMS software.

1. Inefficient and Inaccurate Performance Reviews Many organizations need help conducting performance reviews, which can be time-consuming and prone to errors. However, HRMS software can simplify the process by automating the performance review process, from scheduling to feedback collection and even generating performance reports. 

2. Lack of Clarity in Performance Goals Setting clear and measurable performance goals is crucial for employee motivation and productivity. HRMS software can assist in defining performance goals that are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART).

3. Inadequate Feedback and Coaching Effective performance management involve providing timely and constructive feedback and coaching to employees. However, managers often need help to provide regular feedback and coaching due to time constraints.

4. Inconsistent Performance Evaluation Criteria Inconsistency in evaluating employee performance can lead to a lack of trust among employees and result in potential legal issues. HRMS software can provide a standardized framework for evaluating employee performance, ensuring consistency and fairness in performance evaluations.

5. Limited Access to Performance Data In many organizations, performance data is spread across multiple systems and platforms, making it difficult to access and analyze. HRMS software can provide a centralized platform for storing and analyzing performance data, enabling HR managers and executives to access real-time performance reports and data analytics.

Why Is Performance Management Important

Performance management is critical for the success of any organization. It helps managers to set clear goals and expectations for their employees, monitor their performance, and provide feedback and coaching to improve their performance. It also helps identify areas of strength and opportunities for development, which can lead to better job satisfaction and engagement. Performance management encourages communication, accountability, and transparency, essential for effective teamwork and collaboration. It also enables organizations to measure the success of their strategic objectives and make data-driven decisions to improve the performance of their workforce.

One essential component of performance management is employee data management software. This software allows organizations to collect, store, and analyze performance-related data, making monitoring performance over time and identifying patterns and trends more accessible. With employee data management software, managers can quickly access individual and team performance information, identify areas of strength and weakness, and make data-driven decisions about training, coaching, and other performance improvement initiatives.

What Are the Most Common Performance Management Problems that Managers Deal with on the Job

Effective performance management is essential for the success of any organization, but managers often face common challenges when managing employee performance. These problems can include a lack of clear and measurable goals and expectations, inconsistent performance evaluations and ratings, ineffective feedback and coaching, failure to address poor performance and behaviour, and limited opportunities for growth and development. These issues can lead to disengagement, low morale, and reduced productivity. Effective performance management is critical to overcoming these challenges and achieving the desired outcomes. It requires managers to communicate clearly with their employees, provide timely and specific feedback, and create opportunities for growth and development, among other strategies.

How Can You Solve The Problems

One solution to these performance management problems is using performance management software. Such software automates performance management, enabling organizations to set and track goals, provide regular feedback, and measure employee performance more accurately. By automating these processes, performance management software can help ensure that the performance management process is consistent and transparent, improving employee morale and increasing productivity.

Moreover, performance management software can provide managers and employees with real-time performance data that can be used to identify trends and patterns and to track progress toward goals. This can help identify and address performance gaps early on, allowing for more targeted interventions to improve employee performance.
