Solar window

Image
 What are Solar Windows? Solar windows are windows with solar panels that absorb ultraviolet and infrared light and convert them into electricity. They use the concept of building-integrated photovoltaics (BIPV).   What are the advantages of Solar Windows? • Solar windows reduce the indoor temperature during the summer season. • They reduce power consumption and hence utility bills. • They block ultraviolet radiation, preventing fading of interior furniture. •Solar windows increase privacy by providing a tinting option.  •They reduce glare within the building. •The cost of installation is low compared to solar panels. They lower carbon footprint. As per Ubiquitous Energy (a leading manufacturer of solar windows), solar windows are 30% more expensive than conventional windows. But this is compensated considering the yearly reduction in utility bills and the decrease in global emissions. https://liuphilipusmushongo.blogspot.com/?m=1

What is the Contract Labour Act?

Image
The Contract Labour (Regulation and Abolition) Act, 1970, was brought about to regulate employment, prevent exploitation, and improve working conditions for contract labour in Africa. Contract Labour Workers hired by or through a mediator to work for an establishment are referred to as contract labour. As per the act, “a workman will be deemed to be employed as a ‘contract labour’ in connection with the work of an establishment, when he/she is hired in connection with such work by or through a contractor, with/without the knowledge of the principal employer.” Contract labour is different from direct labour as their relation with the establishment and the method of wage payment differs. The principal employer remunerates the contractor that hires the workmen, who further distributes the wages among the labourers. In the Building and other Construction Workers Act, 1996, it has been cited that a ‘building worker’ can be hired through a contractor to carry out skilled, unskilled, and...
