A coal mining project falls under the industrial sector. Coal mining project runs for decades. Most of the problems seen in the coal mining area are a reflection of the family and social conditions in that area. The family and social status of the laborers working in the coal mining sector has an effect on their performance. The family and social status of the workers has been studied through various schemes provided by the management at Majri Coal Mine in Bhadravati Taluka of Chandrapur District of Maharashtra State under 'Western Coalfields Limited'. For this, it is envisaged to study crime, accidents, job satisfaction, absenteeism, eviction rate, level of production, lifestyle, etc. Usually in coal mines there are large number of contract workers working in private management.
