<h1>The Boilers Bill, 2024 seeks to decriminalize minor offences, retain key penalties, and modernize boiler regulations.</h1> The Boilers Bill, 2024, introduced in the Lok Sabha, aims to replace the century-old Boilers Act, 1923, by decriminalizing three out of seven offences to improve business efficiency and worker safety. It retains criminal penalties for four major offences that could endanger life and property, while converting fines for non-criminal offences into penalties managed by an executive mechanism. The Bill, which aligns with modern drafting practices, consolidates similar provisions into six chapters and details the roles of government bodies to prevent confusion. It also includes new and amended definitions to enhance clarity and omits obsolete provisions.
