Grievances Redressal System in MOLE
The Ministry of Labour & Employment (MOLE) is among the top 20 Ministries receiving highest number of grievances. The MOLE attaches high importance to the redressal of grievances and has set up a Nodal Public Grievance Cell in the Ministry which receives, forwards and does coordination work on public grievances at the level of the Ministry. The Public Grievances are received in the Ministry mainly in two modes viz. online through the CPGRAMS Portal (http://pgportal.gov.in) and also in offline or physical mode from various sources. The grievances are reviewed in the Ministry at highest level of Secretary/ Additional Secretary (L&E) on regular basis. Any person or party having any grievance on any matter related to the Ministry or to any organisation of this Ministry can file his/her grievance either online through the CPGRAMS Portal with relevant details or can send or submit the grievance physically to the Ministry through the Public Grievance Officer. Though of late, grievances are also being sent to the Ministry by many aggrieved persons through the emails and social media which are also given due importance by the Ministry, yet with a view of ensuring effective monitoring of the grievances, it is advisable that the grievances are filed in the online CPGRAMS Portal or sent/submitted in physical form.
