(1) The relationship between workers and employers is one of partnership in the maintenance of production and the building up of the national economy.
(2) The community as a whole as well as individual employer are under an obligation to protect the well-being of workers and to secure to them their due share in the gains of economic development.
The object of Labour Legislation, therefore, is twofold:
(1) to improve the service conditions of industrial labour so as to provide for them the ordinary amenities of life, and by that process,
(2) to bring about industrial peace which could in its turn accelerate productive activity of ihe country resulting in its prosperity.
