5 General Issues raised by Industry Association during the Course of Meeting

Legislation regarding agricultural land conversion and environmental issues

Some parts of the district is classified as ecologically sensitive area.

Ecological problems will adversely affect the industrial growth in the district like changing the topography of land, utilization of large quantity of ground water, air pollution and water pollution.

Migration of skilled people to various other states of India as well as abroad.

Lack of entrepreneurship ends in the early closing of industries

Diminishing forest resources prevent the development of timber and related industries.

The ongoing development of Cochin and ports will attract export oriented units to those areas.

The tendency of the people to invest in neighboring areas of the district especially in Tamil Nadu affects the growth negatively

In rural areas it is not possible to operate more than one shift, as the culture and facilities do no support working outside 9.00 AM – 5.00 PM in a day, whereas in neighbouring Coimbatore district, the turnover is high.

Harassment of trade union
