A Parliamentary panel has strongly favoured a central enforcement machinery to check publication of misleading job advertisements . The Parliamentary Standing Committee on Labour is of the view that there should be an elaborate law to keep a tab on dubious private placement agencies. The Panel has said publishers and broadcasters of such advertisements may also be held accountable for publishing or broadcasting them.
AIR correspondent reports, the committee is of the view that there is an urgent need for a central enforcement machinery and formulation of a comprehensive law for regulating these unscrupulous agencies. The panel observed that spurious advertisements dressed up as job opportunities have cost job seekers dearly in the past.
