Need of Better working conditions and provision of other social measures like employee health, safety, education and recreational facilities. One conclusion on review of the literature is that the SEZs in developed nations like China and Poland, which have robust Infrastructure and structured policies are successful in meeting the goals of promoting economic growth and employee welfare.
