1.
It is a Petition filed by an individual workman against his former Employer / 2nd Party under Sec 2A
(2) and (3) of the Industrial Dispute Act, 1947.
The claim of the 1st Party workman is, he joined the service of the 2nd Party on 29.04.1985 as casual
labourer / helper; his name was sponsored by District Employment Exchange Office at Bangalore; he was
selected after finding him suitable in the interview by the Selection Committee; he worked at maintenance
section of the 2nd Party for ten years continuously until he was illegally terminated in the month of October
1990; he worked for more than 240 days in each of the calendar years and terminated without any reason and
without following the mandatory provisions of the Industrial Dispute Act. Similarly placed workmen selected
along with him were discontinued and they raised dispute before this Tribunal and this Tribunal passed Award
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : जसतम् बर 12, 2020/भाद्र 21, 1942

directing the 2nd Party to reinstate them and they were taken back and they are serving regularly. He is
unemployed and is without any source of income.
2.
The claim is contested by the 2nd Party on the ground that, the 2nd Party was engaging casual labourers
on daily wages to carry out odd and miscellaneous jobs; the engagement was purely casual in nature to cater to
the temporary nature of work. Since, the services were no longer required, their engagement were stopped
subsequently. The 1st Party workman worked intermittently for 513 days from 1985-1990. As per the
guidelines of the Ministry of Defence, Government of India dated 31.01.1991, casual labourers who rendered at
least 240 days of casual service during each of the two years of service will be eligible for appointment to the
post on regular establishment subject to other conditions. The 1st Party did not work for minimum stipulated
days in any of the block of two years and was not eligible for regular employment.
3.
The 1st Party workman once filed the claim petition, thereafter, did not pursue his claim. The 2nd Party
examined it’s witness / Administrative officer reiterating the counter claim averments and produced supporting
documents Ex M-1 to Ex M-4. Ex M-2 is the proceedings of the interview committee dated 07.12.1989 and it is
seen from the said document that the 1st Party workman was not successful in getting through.
4.
More than anything, the claim of the workman is hit by the limitation contemplated by Sec 2A (3) of
‘the Act’ which reads thus,
“2A (1) ..........
(2) ...........
(3) The application referred to in sub Section (2) shall be made to the Labour Court or Tribunal before the
expiry of three years from the date of discharge, dismissal, retrenchment or otherwise termination of services as
specified in sub Section (1).”
The alleged Termination in this case is of October 1990 and the dispute is raised in the year 2011, long
after the period stipulated in the above provision. Hence, the Dispute is barred by time and the petition will not
survive.
AWARD
The petition filed by Sh. G.K. Sateesh Reddy under Sec 2A (2) and (3) of the Industrial Dispute Act is
rejected as not maintainable.

Collieries of M/s. CCL having unblemished service record but the management of CCL, Ramgarh had issued a
Charge-sheet vide no. PO/Sirka/PD-12/Disc. Action/95/11033-41 dated 30/31-10-1996 and had made false
allegation against him. The concerned workman after receipt of the Charge-sheet had submitted his written reply
to the management refusing the charges levelled against him and claiming himself as innocent and not
committing any misconduct. The concerned workman in his reply had submitted that he had not allowed or
ordered Sri Bishun Ram to make payment and Sri Ram had never received any payment from him. The
concerned workman in his reply had also submitted that he had only sent the vouchers submitted to him by the
authorised Pay clerk (duly authorised by Imprest Holder) to the imprest nominee and the Finance Manager of

the pay clerk was responsible for obtaining signature on the payment vouchers. The concerned workman had
taken charge of the cash from Sri Matin Ahmad, LDC of Sirka Colliery vide office order no. PO(SG)/cash dated

concerned workman of Sirka Group was not working during 01/01/1991 to 03/04/1994. The disciplinary
authority had not considered the reply of the concerned workman and had ordered for getting the matter
enquired into departmentally by appointing the Enquiry Officer and M.R. in haste. The concerned workman was
suspended w.e.f. 30/09/1996 and after one month charge-sheet was issued on 30/31-10-1996 by the Project

of the certified standing orders as well as the principle of natural justice. The order of punishment is quite
disproportionate and liable to be set aside in terms of clause 2.3 of the certified standing orders as the Project
Officer/Agent, Sirka Group was not the competent authority. The concerned workman had not made any
payment of L.T.C./L.L.T.C to any workman rather the same was made by the authorised clerk of the Imprest
Holder and the cashier who was actually in employment during the period from 01/01/1991 to 03/04/1994 was
not issued with any charge-sheet by the Project Officer, Sirka. The enquiry report was submitted by the Enquiry
Officer on 28/06/2000 after four years which is also a matter to be taken into account as the reason of such
inordinate delay on this account has not been explained. The process of advance payment of LTC/LLTC was the
responsibility of the bill clerk and cashier had only received the amount as per list and pay order duly received
from the Area Chief Cashier.
The sponsoring union has made a prayer to set aside the order of the dismissal as the punishment
imposed is quite disproportionate and no misconduct has been committed by the workman concerned so he may
be allowed to re-instate on payment of full back wages with effect from the date of suspension i.e. 30.09.1996
with consequential benefits.
4.
The case of the management of Sirka Group of M/s. CCL as per its written statement is as follows:-
That the sponsoring union has raised the present industrial dispute after the lapse of 12 years without
any explanation of such delay, so the present industrial dispute is not maintainable in law. The concerned
workman was working as cashier at Sirka Colliery of M/s. CCL and he was involved in fraudulent, false and
excess payment amounting to Rs. 88.39 Lakhs during the period from 01/01/1991 to 31/12/1994. The concerned
workman had conducted serious misconduct according to the provision of standing orders, therefore he was
charge-sheeted vide order dated 30/31-10-1996 allegation with following:-
“You were requisitioning money from Area Accounts Office, Argada for payment of LTC/LLTC
which included enormous fictitious payments.
You allow Sri Bishun Ram to make payment of LTC/LLTC alongwith an outsider employed by Sri
Bishun Ram even though Sri Ram was not authorise to make payments, inspite of the payment clerk
were deputed to make such payment.
You accepted vouchers after payment of LTC/LLTC with false signatures and thumb impression and
those vouchers were sent to the Area Accounts Officer for adjustment of the advance money drawn
for payment of LTC/LLTC.
You accepted voucher signed by Sri Bishun Ram after drawing money on behalf of employer of
Sirka Colliery without any authorisation of the concerned employee and sent those vouchers also to
Area Accounts Officer for adjustment of advance money.
You did not keep cash book properly and the amount of LTC/LLTC payments was made as lump
sum and did not give the details of the employees to whom the payment were made. This was done to
hide the identity of the persons receiving payment.
In this way fraudulent, false and excess payment amounting to Rs. 88.39 Lakhs was made in the span
of four years i.e. from 01/01/1991 to 31/12/1994. You disregarded the provisions of finance manual.
The above charges constitute misconduct under clause 18(i) (a) and (g) of the Standing Orders by
which your services are governed.”
The concerned workman submitted his reply to the aforesaid charge-sheet and on finding the such reply
not satisfactory, the management appointed Enquiry Officer to conduct departmental enquiry in respect of the
charge-sheet. The Enquiry Officer had conducted a free, fair and impartial enquiry after observing the principles
of natural justice in which the concerned employee participated and defended his case. The Enquiry Officer
submitted his report on 28/06/2000 holding that all the charges were proved and the copy of the enquiry report
was forwarded to the concerned workman by a letter dated 05/07/2000 to which he submitted his reply. After
consideration of the findings of the Enquiry Officer and the reply of the workman to the findings of the Enquiry
Officer, the Project Officer issued the order of dismissal of the workman on 03/11/2000 from the service of the
company, so the order of dismissal is legal and justified and the concerned workman is not entitled to any relief.
5.
The concerned union/workman has submitted rejoinder to the written statement of the management on
20/05/2016 and 05/04/2017, denying all the facts stated in the written statement.

8.
The learned lawyer of the concerned union Sri U.N. Lall has submitted before Court that the concerned
workman had joined Sirka Colliery on 04/04/1994, so he was not In-Charge of the cashier since 01/01/1991 to
31/12/1994 for which the charge-sheet has been issued against him. He has also submitted that the concerned
workman has been suspended on 28/09/1996 without finding anything against him and he was illegally
dismissed on w.e.f. 03/11/2000. He has also argued that the C.M.D is the competent authority of dismissal of
any workman but the order of dismissed has been issued by the project Officer against the established principles
as laid down by the standing orders. He has also argued that the management had given disproportionate
punishment to the concerned workman, so the award may be set aside with a direction for reinstatement of the
concerned workman with full back wages.
9.
On the other hand the learned lawyer of management of Sirka Group, CCL, Ranchi has submitted that
the concerned workman had found the enquiry conducted against him as fair and proper vide order sheet dated
10/08/2017 and thereafter this Tribunal has only jurisdiction to consider whether the dismissal of the concerned
workman was proportionate to the offence. He has also argued that there is an allegation of payment of 88.39
lakhs in fraudulent and false manner by the concerned workman during his period as cashier of Sirka Group of
Colliery CCL, Ranchi and in course of enquiry all the charges levelled against him have been proved, so the
dismissal of concerned workman is not disproportionate to the guilt. He has also submitted that the concerned
workman is not entitled for any relief by this Tribunal.
Now, the only point of determination in this case is whether the action of the management of Sirka
Group, Project Officer of M/s. BCCL in dismissing Sri A.K. Ojha from the services of the company w.e.f.
03/11/2000 is fair and justified and to what relief the concerned workman is entitled to.

FINDINGS
10.
At the outset of discussion it is required to mention here that the concerned workman namely
Sri A.K. Ojha has accepted the domestic enquiry held by the management as fair and proper vide order sheet
dated 10/08/2017, so the Tribunal doesn’t think it proper to discuss here the fariness of the enquiry conducted by
the management.
11.
In this case neither the sponsoring union/concerned workman nor the management has examined any
witness, so there is no oral evidence availale in this case. However both the parties have formally proved certain
documents which are marked as Exhibit.
12.
At this stage it is required to mention here that the Exhibit W-1 and Exhibit M-1, Exhibit W-2 and
Exhibit M-2, Exhibit W-3 and Exhibit M-9 are same documents and both the parties have relied on those
documents.
13.
Now, after going through the statement of claim of sponsoring union/concerned workman and the
written statement of management it is an admitted position that the concerned workman namely Sri A.K. Ojha
was an employee of Sirka Group of Colliery of CCL, Ranchi and he was working as UDC/Cashier at Sirka
Colliery CCL, Ranchi. Further there is also an admission by both the parties that management had issued
charge-sheet dated 30/31-10-1996 (Exhibit W-1 and Exhibit M-1) to the concerned workman for excess
payment of LTC/LLTC amounting to Rs. 88.39 Lakhs during the period 01/01/1991 to 31/12/1994 and the
concerned workman had submitted his reply to the charge-sheet (Exhibit W-2 and Exhibit M-2) but the
management after considering the reply held that there should be detailed enquiry in this matter and appointed a
Enquiry Officer (Exhibit M-3/1) and after that notice was sent to the concerned workman fixing date of enquiry
(Exhibit M-4).
14.
The concerned workman in his statement of claim has challenged the proceeding of the enquiry as well
as the genuiness of the enquiry report but after perusal of the Exhibit M-5 series which is copy of the enquiry
report it appears that the concerned workman namely Sri A.K. Ojha had participated in the departmental enquiry
along with his co-worker namely Mihir Chaudary and the witness of the management was cross-examined at
length on 20/04/1999, 20/05/1999, 09/09/1999, 19/11/1999. Further the concerned workman has submitted his
statement and the management had cross-examined him on 18/04/2000 at length.
It also appears that after conclusion of enquiry, the Enquiry Officer namely H. Kujur had submitted his
enquiry report holding that the charge no. 1, charge no. 2, charge no. 3, charge no. 4 and charge no. 5 were
proved against the concerned workman. Further the Exhibit M-7 shows that the concerned workman namely Sri
A.K. Ojha had been given the copy of the enquiry report with a request to submit a representation, if any, within
7 days of receipt of this letter. Moreover, the Exhibit M-8 shows that the concerned workman namely Sri A.K.
Ojha had submitted his representation before the Project Officer, Sirka denying all the charges levelled against
him.
The management after analysing the enquiry report as well as the representation of the concerned
workman namely Sri A.K. Ojha it has been considered to impose a penalty of dismissal from the service with
immediate effect. (Exhibit W-3 & Exhibit M-9).
It is required to mention here that the sponsoring union/concerned workman has admitted that the
departmental enquiry proceeding was fair and proper, so the Tribunal doesn’t think it proper to go into the merit
of the enquiry report at this stage.
Hence, the Tribunal comes to the conclusion that there is no illegality and impropriety in the
departmental proceeding conducted by management against the concerned workman namely Sri A.K. Ojha
(Exhibit M-5 Series).
15. The learned lawyer of the sponsoring union has submitted that the concerned workman was posted at Sirka
Group of Colliery since 04/04/1994, so he is not liable for payment of excess with respect to 01/01/1991 to
03/04/1994 and he has relied on the Exhibit W-4 which is office order dated 04/04/1999 by which the concerned
workman namely Sri A.K. Ojha was authorized to take charge of Cashier.
2350 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
At this stage it is required to mention here that the Enquiry Officer had conducted the enquiry
regarding payment of LTC/LLTC for the period of 01/01/1991 to 31/12/1994 and concerned workman had
joined the post as UDC/ cash on 04/04/1994, so he was posted as cashier in Sirka Group of Mines at Argada
since 04/04/1994 to 31/12/1994 and in that period too the Enquiry Officer had found excess payment of
LTC/LLTC, so the argument advanced by the Ld. Counsel of concerned workman is not maintainable.
16.
The learned lawyer of the sponsoring union has also submitted that in this matter, the C.B.I had
registered a case as RC case no. 10(A) 2001 and nothing was found by a CBI in investigation against the
concerned workman Sri A.K. OJha, so the CBI had submitted charge sheet showing the concerned workman Sri
A.K. Ojha has not sent up for trial.
In this regard it is required to mention here that since in departmental enquiry report all the charges
against the concerned workman had been found proved and the action had been taken on the basis of that
enquiry report, so it is not necessary that if no material had been found by the CBI in course of investigation no
punishment could be awarded to the concerned workman, so this argument of Ld. Counsel of concerned
workman is also not tenable.
17.
The learned lawyer of sponsoring union/workman has also submitted that the punishment awarded to
the workman is disproportionate to the charges proved against him.
It is relevant to mention here that altogether five charges were leveled against the concerned workman
namely Sri A.K. Ojha and all the five charges were proved. Moreover all the charges leveled against the
concerned workman namely Sri A.K. Ojha were very serious. Further the proved charges include requisitioning
money from Area Account Office, Argada for payment of LTC/LLTC which included enormous fictitious
payment, acceptance of vouchers after payment of LTC/LLTC with false signature and thumb impression,
acceptance of vouchers by Sri Bishun Ram, not properly keeping the cash book and account of LTC/LLTC
payment and fraudulent false and excess payment. Hence the punishment awarded to the concerned is not
disproportionate to the charges levelled against him.
18.
After considering all the facts and circumstances of the case the Tribunal comes to the conclusion that
action of the management of Sirka Group of Project of M/s. CCL in dismissing Sri A.K. Ojha from service of
the company w.e.f. 03/11/2010 is fair and justified and he is not entitled to any relief in this matter.
This is the Award of this Tribunal .

Jharkhand High Court has been pleased to set aside the said award and has been pleased to remand the matter
for passing fresh award after due appraisal of the evidences already on record.
3.
After production of the order of Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court passed in WP(L) No. 1904/2016,
notice was issued against management and subsequently management appeared before the tribunal.
Further in the light of direction of Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court, both the sides was heard a fresh.
4.
The claim of Bihar Colliery Mazdoor Sabha representing the workmen is as follows:-
That Mangu Kumhar and 30 others workmen had been working as stone cutters at Bhurungia Project
from 1985 and the management had engaged them for stone cutting in the underground against permanent
vacancy. The stone cutting works were being done by regular workers of BCCL in other collieries who were
paid Cat-V wages and other allowances as prescribed under coal wages agreement from time to time. The
concerned workmen had been paid Rs. 1250/- per month whereas a regular worker for the same work had been
paid Rs. 24.50 per day and other allowances. The management of Bhurungia Project had deprived the concerned
workmen of their proper wages and other benefits enjoyed by the regular workers.The stone cutting works was
of regular and perennial in nature for which regular workers were engaged in all BCCL Collieries under
National Coal Wages Agreement. The concerned workmen worked under the control and supervision of the
colliery officials such as Overman and Mining Sardar who supervised the works and quantity done by these
concerned workmen, so the concerned workmen in fact and in law were the employee of M/s. BCCL. There had
been employer- employee relationship existing between these concerned workmen and the management of
BCCL and on demand of concerned workmen for their regularization in service, they were stopped from
discharging their duties since 03/01/1992.
A dispute has been raised by the Union before Assistant Labour Commissioner, Dhanbad and on
failure of the conciliation, a reference has been made to this Tribunal.
A prayer has been made for holding the concerned workmen as direct & regular employees of
M/s. BCCL and for issuance of direction to the management of BCCL to give employment to the concerned
workmen on the job they had been working with continuity of their service and all other benefits.
5.
On the other hand the case of the management M/S. BCCL as per written statement is as follows:-
That there is no employer-employee relationship ever existed between the management and the
concerned workmen. The concerned workmen had never worked at Bhurungia Project from 1985 on any job
whatsoever. The sponsoring union has advanced a vague claim at the time of conciliation proceeding that the
concerned workmen had worked as stone cutter at Bhurungia Project from the year 1985 but failed to produce
any material before the conciliation officer to establish prima-facie case for sending the same to the Industrial
Tribunal for adjudication. The conciliation officer didn’t find any merit to recommend the case for reference to
an Industrial Tribunal for adjudication and subsequently the Central Government refused to entertain the claim
of the concerned workmen by referring the same for adjudication to Industrial Tribunal.
The Hon’ble High Court by order dated 16/12/1996 has been pleased to observe in CWJC No. 338 of
1996 (R) that the appropriate Government should refer the case to the Industrial Tribunal for adjudication so as
to give opportunity to the sponsoring union to claim that the concerned workmen had worked as stone cutter at
Bhurungia Project from 1985.
A prayer has been made to pass an Award holding that the concerned workmen are not entitled to any
relief.
6. The sponsoring union representing the workmen has filed rejoinder to the written statement of the
management in which all the averments of the management have been denied.
7. The workman has examined only one witness. He is WW-1 Mangu Kumhar.
The WW-1 Mangu Kumhar has deposed before the Court that he was one of the employees related to
this case and he along with 30 other workers were working as stone cutter in Chanak No.5 of Bhurungia Project
from 1985 to 1991. He has further stated that he and all other workers had worked for 190 days during the
aforesaid period and their attendance had been marked by the authorised person. He has also stated that the
Mining Sardar and Overmen used to supervise his and other co-workers work and they had been paid theirs
remuneration in colliery office. He has also stated that he and other co-workers were paid Rs. 1250/- per month
and in this regard a certificate had been issued by the Project Officer of Bhurungia Project mentioning therein
that he and 30 other workers had worked in the colliery since 03/02/1985 to 31/12/1991 as stone cutter on
payment of Rs. 1250/- per month as salary and deposit amount was Rs. 32,145/-. He has also stated that the said
certificate was signed by Shri Vijaynath, Project Officer. He has also stated that attendance of his and other
2356 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
co-workers were marked on Form `C’ Register which was signed by Shri Vijaynath, and he has produced the
photo copy of the same of month April 1991. He has also stated that he has submitted photo copy of Cap Lamp
register of month of June 1991 which was signed by Sri B. Benerjee. He has also stated that the original Form
`C’ register has been kept by the management in the colliery but the same has not been produced before the
Tribunal. He has also deposed that he and other co-workers demanded their regularization in service and
subsequently he and other co-workers were stopped from discharging duties in the year 1992. He has also stated
that services of his and other co-workers be regularized with payment of back wages.
In the cross-examination he has stated that he couldn’t say that any writ petition was filed before the
Hon’ble High Court, Patna. He has also stated that he has no paper to show that he has been appointed in
Bhurungia Project. He has further stated that he has not received any pay slip for such work and he has not
received I.D. Card as well as P.F. Number. He has denied the suggestion that his demand is not justified.
8. The workman/union has proved the following documents which are marked as:-
Exhibit W-1 - A Photo Copy of Form `C’ register in which names of 31 workers have been mentioned.
Exhibit W-2 – A Photo Copy of certificate issued by Project Officer Bhurungia Colliery.
9.
The management has examined only one witness. He is Jatadhari Roy. The MW-1 Jatadhari Roy has
deposed before Court that the Bhurungia Project of M/s. BCCL is not in operation from 1995 and all the records
of Bhurungia Project were transferred to Lohapatti Colliery and all the matters to Bhurungia Project were being
dealt by the management of Lohapatti Colliery. He has also deposed that at present he is working as Clerk in
Personnel Section of Lohapatti Colliery of BCCL and he has full knowledge about the present case. He has also
stated that there was no employer-employee relationship ever existed between the management and concerned
workmen and the concerned workmen never worked at Bhurungia Project from the year 1985. He has further
stated that the sponsoring Union has advanced a vague claim at the time of conciliation proceeding that the
concerned persons had worked as stone cutter at Bhurugia Project from the year 1985 but failed to produce any
material before the conciliation officer. He has also stated that the conciliation officer did not find any merit to
recommend the same for reference to an Industrial dispute for adjudication. He has also stated that the
concerned workmen were never employed by the management in any kind of job and the claim of Union for
regularization of concerned workmen is not correct.
In the cross-examination he has deposed that he couldn’t say the date when the Project was stopped. He
has also stated that it was working till June 1995. He has also stated that he was working in Lohapatti Colliery
as a Personnel Clerk from 1985 to 1991. He has also stated that there are four collieries under Mahuda Area and
Lohapatti Colliery comes under the jurisdiction of Mahuda Area. He has further stated that in Mahuda Colliery
Area there was no provision of casual workers but for work contract was given. He has also stated that M.
Ansari was one of the Project Officer working from 1985 to 1991.
10. The management has not proved and exhibited any documents in its support.
11. The representating of Union of the workmen has submitted before the Tribunal that all the concerned
workmen were working as stone cutter in Bhurungia Colliery from 1985 to 1991 against the regular post of
stone cutter as per NCWA. He has further argued that the concerned workmen were regularly paid their salary
of Rs. 1250/- per month and their works were regularly supervised by the Mining Sardar and Overman. He has
also argued that an employer-employee relationship existed between the concerned workmen and the
management of BCCL but in the year 1992 the workmen demanded their regularization from the management
of the BCCL and subsequently they were stopped from discharging their duties. He has made prayer to pass an
Award for regularization of all the 31 concerned workers with payment of back wages.
12. The representative of the union has relied on the decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court as reported in FLR 528
2012 (132) H.S. Rajashekara Vs. State Bank of Mysore and others. Further, the representative of the
workman/union has also relied on the decisions as FLR 926 2012 (132) Horticulture Department, Delhi Vs.
Rajinder Prasad and others. 2012 (133) FLR 463 Ram Chandra Yadav and State of U.P. and others. 2012
(132) FLR 688 Director Food and Supplies, Punjab and others Vs. Parkash Singh.2012 (132) FLR 258
Orrisa Mining Corporation Ltd Vs. Presiding Officer, CGIT-Cum-Labour Court, Bhubaneswar and another.
13.
On the other hand the learned lawyer of the management has submitted before the Tribunal that the
concerned workmen had never been appointed by the management of BCCL and there was no employer-
employee relationship between them. He has also submitted that the concerned workmen had never been
appointed by Bhurungia Colliery and the concerned workmen had not produced any documents to show that
they had been appointed by the management of Bhurungia Colliery. He has also submitted that the sponsoring
Union has advanced a vague claim and they are not entitled for any relief by this Tribunal.
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]

2357
14. Now the only point of determination in this case is whether the claim of the Sponsoring Union that Sri
Mangu Kumhar and 30 other workers working at Bhurungia Project from 1985 is correct and if so, whether
these workmen are eligible for regularization by the management of Bhurungia Colliery and to what relief they
are entitled to.
FINDINGS
15. It is the pleading of the Union/Workman that the concerned workmen had worked in Bhurungia Project of
BCCL for more than one ninety days, so they are eligible for regularization.
16. In this context it is relevant to mention here the provisions of Section 25-B of the I.D. Act. The Section 25-B
of I.D. Act reads as follows:-
25-B. Definition of continuous service – For the purpose of this Chapter,-
(1) A workman shall be said to be in continuous service for a period if he is, for that period, in
uninterrupted service, including service which may be interrupted on account of sickness or
authorized leave or an accident or a strike which is not illegal, or a lock-out or a cessation of
work which is not due to any fault on the part of the workman;
(2) Where a workman is not in continuous service within the meaning of clause (1) for a period of
one year or six months, he shall be deemed to be in continuous service under an employer-
(a) for a period one year, if the workman, during a period of twelve calendar months preceding
the date with reference to which calculation is to be made, has actually worked under the
employer for not less than –
(i)
one hundred and ninety (190) days in the case of a workman employed below ground
in a mine; and
(ii) two hundred and forty days, in any other case;
(b)…………………………………..
17. In the light of pleading of the Union/workman and the provision of law of I.D. Act it is required to discuss
the oral and documentary evidence available in this case.
18. At the outset of discussion it is required to mention here that out of thirty one workers only one workman
namely Mangu Kumhar has been examined as WW-1 on behalf of all the concerned workmen.
19. The WW-1 Mangu Kumhar has categorically deposed that he and 30 other workers were working as stone
cutter in Chanak No. 5 of Bhurungia Project from 1985 to 1991 and all of them had worked for 190 days during
the aforesaid period. He has also stated that their attendance had been marked by authorized person and they
had worked under Mining Sardar and Overman. He has further deposed that he and other workers had been paid
Rs. 1250/- per month and he has produced a photo copy of Form ‘C’ Registerof the month of April 1991, on
which the attendance of workers were marked. He has also stated that he has submitted photo copy of Cap Lamp
Register for the month of June 1991 which bears the signature of Sri B. Banerjee.
In the cross-examination he has stated that he has no paper to show that he was appointed in Bhurungia
Project and he has no pay slip for such work. He has also stated that he has not got I-Card and P.F. Number.
The MW-1 Jatadhari Roy has deposed that Bhurungia Project of M/s. BCCL was not in operation from
1995. He has further deposed that there was no employer-employee relationship ever existed between the
management and the concerned workman and the concerned workman never worked at Bhurungia Project from
1985.
20. It is required to mention here that the concerned workman/union has not produced any appointment letter
issued by the Management of Bhurungia Colliery of M/s. BCCL regarding their appointment as a stone cutter in
the Colliery. Further the union/workman has not produced any I-Card of the Company as well as Provident
Fund Number before the Tribunal. Moreover in absence of appointment letter, I.Card and PF Number it can not
be said that the concerned workmen were appointed by the management of M/S BCCL, Dhanbad.
21.
Now, coming to the documentary evidence it appears that Exhibit W-1 is the photo copy of Register of
Persons in Below Ground Working with heading of casual mazdoor and it bears names of thirty one workers of
which some names are legible and some names are not legible. Further Exhibit W-1 doesn’t bear the specific
date on which the concerned workman had worked in the Company. Moreover the photo copy of Lamp Register
shows that Cap Lamp had been issued to the concerned workman for one month and there is no Attendance
Register which shows that they have worked for 190 days.
2358 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
Further the Exhibit W-2 is a photo copy of certificate issued by Project Officer Bhurungia in which the
name of all 31 workers are mentioned as they were working since 03/02/1985 to 31/12/1991 as a stone cutter @
Rs. 1250/- per month as a Casual Mazdoor but the signature of the Project Officer is not clear and no name has
been mentioned under his signature on the Exhibit W-2. Moreover it does not bear any memo no of issuing
office.
22. Now after perusal of Exhibit W-1, it appears that it is photo copy of Register of Persons of Below Ground
Working in which name of 31 persons have been mentioned but the concerned workman/union has not produced
the original copy of this document. Further Exhibit W-2 which is also photo copy of certificate mentioning
therein that the concerned workmen were working as a casual labours in the Colliery of Bhurungia on payment
of Rs. 1250/- per month but the concerned workman/union has not produced the original copy of this certificate.
In view of above discussion the Exhibit W-1 and Exhibit W-2 do not inspire confidence, so both the
documents are not trustworthy and reliable.
Under such circumstances there is no documentary evidence that the concerned workmen had been
working as stone cutter in Bhurungia Project from year 1985 to 1991 which is more than 190 days as stipulated
u/s 25-B (2) (a) (i).
23. Now, in the light of above discussion the Tribunal finds that in this case there is no cogent and convincing
evidence that the concerned workmen had continuously worked as stone cutter from 1985 to 1991 in the
Bhurungia Colliery of BCCL.
24.
It is relevant to mention here that the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case H.S. Rajashekara Vs. State
Bank of Mysore & Another as reported in 2012 (132) FLR 688 has been pleased to hold that this decision shall
not be treated as precedent as the same has been rendered keeping in mind the peculiar facts and circumstances
of this case.
Further, the other decisions of different Hon’ble High Court as relied by the representation of
Union/Workman are related to regularization of service of a workmen on continuous service of two hundred and
forty days.
25. At this stage it is required to mention here that the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case Madhyamik
Shiksha Parishad vs. Anil Kumar Mishra, reported in (2005) 5 SCC 122, has been pleased to hold specially in
Paragraph No. 5 as under:-
“5. We are unable to uphold the order of the High Court. There were no sanctioned posts in existence
to which they could be said to have been appointed. The assignment was an ad hoc one which
anticipatedly spent itself out. It is difficult to envisage for them the status of workmen on the analogy
of the provisions of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, importing the incidents of completion of 240
days’ work. The legal consequences that flow from work for that duration under the Industrial
Disputes Act, 1947, are entirely different from what, by way of implication, is attributed to the present
situation by way of analogy. The completion of 240 days’ work does not, under that law import the
right to regularisation. It merely imposes certain obligations on the employer at that time of
termination of the service. It is not appropriate to import and apply that analogy, in an extended or
enlarged form here.”
It has further been held by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of M.P. Housing Board vs. Manoj
Shrivastava, reported in (2006) 2 SCC 702, specially in Paragraph No. 17 as under:-
“17. It is now well settled that only because a person had been working for more than 240 days, he
does not derive and legal right to be regularised in service.
(See Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad, U.P. vs. Anil Kumar Mishra; Executive Engineer, ZP
Engineering Divn. vs. Digambara Rao; Dhampur Sugar Mills Ltd. vs. Bhola Singh; Manager,
Reserve Bank of India vs. S. Mani and Neeraj Awasthi.)”
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : जसतम् बर 12, 2020/भाद्र 21, 1942
2359
It has further been held by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of Post Master General, Kolkata vs.
Tutu Das (Dutta), reported in (2007) 5 SCC 317, especially in Paragraph No. 16 as under:-
“16. The short order which was the subject-matter of decision of this Court in Debika Guha also
stood overruled in Umadevi (3). We may at this stage also notice that the concept of 240 days to be
the cut-off mark for the purpose of regularisation of services came up for consideration of this Court
in Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad v. Anil Kumar Mishra wherein it was clearly laid down that the
completion of 240 days of continuous service in a year would be attracted only in a case where
retrenchment has been effected without complying with the provisions contained in Section 25-F of
the Industrial Disputes Act, but would not be relevant for regularisation of service.”
It has further been held by the Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of Hindustan Aeronautics Ltd. Vs.
Dan Bahadur Singh, reported in (2007) 6 SCC 207, especially in Paragraph No. 18 as under:-
“18. The next question which requires consideration is whether completion of 240 days in a year
confers any right on an employee or workman to claim regularisation in service. In Madhyamik
Shiksha Parishad vs. Anil Kumar Mishra it was held that the completion of 240 days’ work does not
confer the right to regularisation under the Industrial Disputes Act. It merely imposes certain
obligations on the employer at the time of termination of the services. In M.P. Housing Board vs.
Manoj Shrivastava (para 17) after referring to several earlier decisions it has been reiterated that it
is well settled that only because a person had been working for more than 240 days, he does not
derive any legal right to be regularised in serivee. This view has been reiterated in Gangadhar Pillai
vs. Siemens Ltd. The same question has been examined in considerable detail with reference to an
employee working in a government company in Indian Drugs & Pharmaceuticals Ltd. vs. Workmen
and paras 34 and 35 of the report are being reproduced below: (SCC p.426)
“34. Thus, it is well settled that there is no right vested in any daily wager to seek regularisation.
Regularisation can only be done in accordance with the rules and not dehors the rules. In the case
of E. Ramakrishnan v. State of Kerala this Court held that there can be no regularisation dehors the
rules. The same view was taken in Kishore (Dr.) v. State of Maharashtra and Union of India v.
Bishamber Dutt. The direction issued by the services Tribunal for regularising the services of
persons who had not been appointed on regular basis in accordance with the rules was set aside
although the petitioner had been working regularly for a long time.
35. In Surinder Singh Jamwal (Dr.) v. State of J&K it was held that ad hoc appointment does not
give any right for regularisation is governed by the statutory rules.””
The Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court has been pleased to observe in L.P.A No. 268/2012 which is as
under:-
“(xiv) Be that as it may, even assuming without admitting that this appellant has worked more than
240 days in couple of years, then also, his services cannot be regularized. 240 days’ working is not a
magic bond which converts illegal appointment into the legal appointment. In fact, 240 days working
has nothing to do with the regularization at all. 240 days working has got reference under Section
25-B of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 for calculation of continuous years of service and nothing
beyond that. Unnecessarily several times the Labour Court or the Industrial Courts are committing
an error that if any worker has completed 240 days, their services should be regularized. In fact,
there is no casual connection at all between the working of 240 days and right of regularization.
Illegality in the appointment cannot be diluted by the working of 240 days. Illegality in the
appointment continues, even if, the worker has worked for 240 days.”
The Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court has been further pleased to hold as follows:-
“Whenever any employment is given unauthorizedly, in the respondent-UCO Bank, Hirapur,
Dhanbad, such type of employment cannot be converted into a regular employment unless there are
rules for regularization or scheme for regularization. In the facts of the present case, there are no
2360 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
rules of regularization nor there is any scheme of regularization floated by the UCO Bank. In
absence of such type of law, the charity shown by the Court will be cruelty to others. If such type
regularization is allowed by the Courts, it will provide encouragement to those who are adorning
high-ranking administrative position to give illegal appointment and later on, to get them
regularized by the orders of the Courts. A thing which cannot be done directly, can never be done
indirectly. If no employment can be given without there being any advertisement and without there
being any recruitment process, the Court cannot be a party to illegal regularization of such
employee.”
26. In view of the decision of Hon’ble Supreme Court and Hon’ble Jharkhand High Court as discussed above,
the concerned workmen are not entitled for regularization of their service in Bhurungia Project of M/s. BCCL.
27. Under such circumstances, the Tribunal comes to the conclusion that the claim of the union that Mangu
Kumhar and 30 others were working at Bhurungia Project from 1985 is not correct and they are not eligible for
regularisation by the management of the Bhurungia Colliery. Further they are not entitled for any other relief.
This is the Award of this Tribunal.

AWARD
On receipt of reference from the Ministry of Labour, Government of India vide letter
No. L-42012/69/2017-IR(DU) dated 29.01.2018 followed by corrigendum letter dated 5/2/2018, under clause
(d) of sub-section (1) and sub-section (2A) of Section 10 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (in short “the
Act”) notices were issued to the parties for adjudication of an industrial dispute, terms of which are as under:
‘Whether the action of the management of National Institute of M/s S2 Infotech Pvt. Ltd. in
terminating the services of the three workmen Ms. Shilpi, Ms. Shivani Singhal and Shri Varun Sharma
is illegal and unjustified. If so, then what relief the workmen are entitled to ?’
2.
In response to the notice, all the workmen/claimants appeared in person and filed their statement of
claims separately but on similar lines, averring that they were serving as Data Entry Operator/s in the Passport
Office on contractual basis. Ms. Shilpi and Ms. Shivani were engaged in the year 2009, whereas the
workman/claimant Varun Sharma was engaged in the year 2014. The work and conduct of the workmen was
satisfactory and a certificate to that effect was issued by the Passport Office, Dehradun. However, all of a
sudden on 3rd September, 2015 at about 3 PM the claimants/workmen were intimated through the contractor
company M/s S2 Infotech Pvt. Ltd. that their services were terminated from Passport Office. When they wanted
to know the reason for their termination, Passport Officer replied that they had misbehaved with him and that is
why they are being terminated. He even threatened the workmen with consequence and ruining their career.
The allegation of misbehavior imputed against the workmen by Shri Vijay Shankar Pandey, Passport Officer,
Dehradun is false and wrong, because the workmen had never derelicted their duties. The claimant Varun
Sharma has pleaded that on 2/9/2015 while he was busy in doing his work, after about 11-45 AM Ms. Archana
Mishra, (official of Passport Office) came to his seat, started shouting at him that he does not know how to give
respect to the senior, as he had not wished her “good morning” and asked him to deposit the mobile phone,
despite the fact that he was not at fault. Even Shri Vijay Shankar Pandey, the then Passport Officer had
misbehaved & insulted him without any reason, just to favour Ms. Archana Mishra. The workmen have pleaded
that the Management No.2 terminated the services of the workmen Ms. Shilpi and Ms. Shivani w.e.f. 30/9/2015,
whereas services of workman Varun Sharma were terminated w.e.f. 10/9/2015 without any reason on baseless
allegations, despite the fact their re-employment/re-engagement was upto 31/9/2016. It is also pleaded that
Management No.2 in violation of labour laws did not provide them benefit of any sick leave or overtime
allowance for performance of duties on Saturdays and Sundays. The claimants/workmen are not well off and
have by now got tired to have a long fight for justice. They have prayed for justice.
3-
Management No.1 filed written statement, contesting the case of the workmen/claimants inter-alia on
the grounds the claimants were neither the employees of Management No.1, nor were terminated by the
Management No.1 rather they were deployed at Passport Office, Dehradun by the outsourced agency M/s S-2
Infotech Pvt. Ltd., Mumbai i.e. Management No. 2 in whose favour a contract was awarded for providing Data
2364 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
Entry Operators in various Passport Offices. As such, there is no relationship of master and employee between
the Management and claimants, as the claimants were engaged by outsourced agency M/s S-2 Infotech Pvt. Ltd.
4-
Management No. 2 filed separate written statements to the statement of claims of the
workmen/claimants but almost with similar pleas. Denying each and every allegations of the workmen, it is
stated that the claimants were appointed at the position of a DEO (Data Entry Operator) at base salary of
Rs.1,28,604/- per annum by the Management No. 2. vide its offer of contractual employment dated 23/7/2013,
effective from 1/8/2013 till 31/7/2014. Since last drawn wages of the workmen/claimants exceeded the threshold
of Rs.10,000/- per month and their nature of employment was managerial in nature, the claimants falls within
the purview of the exclusion set out in Section 2(S) of the Act. It is also stated that clause 10 of the said Offer
of contractual employment clearly stated that the contract can be terminated by either party after giving one
month’s notice. The conduct of the workmen/claimants included acts like refusal to work, disobedience of the
orders of superior officer, wrongfully interfering with the work of other co-associates, improper acts within the
office premises, using abusive language, willful absence from office etc. The misconduct, misbehavior and
repeated complaints against the workmen/claimant from the employees of Management No. 1 left no option
with the Management No. 2 but to terminate their services and same was done as per clause 10 of the offer of
contractual employment, by giving 1 month advance notice to the claimants. As such, the case of the workmen
does not fall within the meaning of retrenchment and in fact falls in the exclusion set out in Section 2(oo)(bb) of
the Act. The claimants raised false and malicious claims, suppressing all the material facts. Prayer has been
made for rejection of the claim petition/s.
5.
Since no rejoinder was filed on behalf of the claimants, following issues were framed in this case on
11/1/2019 :-
(1)
Whether the proceeding is maintainable?
(2)
Whether the claimants fall within the definition of workmen defined under Section 2(S) of ID
Act ?
(3)
Whether the termination of the claimants from service is legal and justified ?
(4)
Whether the claimants are entitled to reinstatement with back wages ?
(5)
To what other relief the parties are entitled to ?
6.
Perusal of the record shows that despite number of opportunities granted to the workmen/claimants to
adduce evidence in support their case regarding illegal termination of their services by the Management No. 2,
none of them came forward to lead any evidence for the reasons best known to them. It is a matter of record that
the claimants had chosen the course not to participate in the proceedings from 25/5/2018 onwards. As a matter
of precaution, fresh notices of appearance were issued to the claimants through registered post for 14/10/2019
but despite that, none of the claimants caused appearance either on 14/10/2019 or on subsequent date of hearing.
Hence, this Tribunal was left with no option but to close evidence of the claimants vide order dated 19/12/2019.
Since the claimants themselves did not adduce any oral or documentary evidence to prove their case, A/R for
the Management chose not to lead any evidence.
7.
At the outset it is mentioned that onus was upon the claimant/workman to prove that their services were
illegally & unjustifiably terminated by Management No.2 at the instance of Management No. 1 and that they are
entitled to get relief of reinstatement into service with back wages. The workman/claimant has failed to
discharge the onus. Since the workmen/claimants were/are not interested to prosecute their case on merits, it
seems that dispute between the parties does not survive any more. In view of the fact that the claimants have
not led any evidence in support of their case, this Tribunal is constrained to pass “No Dispute Award” in the
matter. Award is passed accordingly.
Let a copy of this Award be sent for publication as required under Section 17 of the Act.
Dictated & corrected by me.

The Government of India in Ministry of Labour & Employment has referred the present dispute
existing between employer i.e. the management of BSNL, Gurgaon and its workman/claimant herein, under
clause (d) of sub section (1) and sub section (2A) of section 10 of the Industrial Dispute Act 1947 vide letter
No. L-40012/12/2009 (IR(DU) dated 03.09.2009 to this tribunal for adjudication to the following effect.
“Whether the action of the management BSNL, Gurgaon in terminating the services of their workman,
Shri Sunder Singh w.e.f 17.04.2006 is legal and justified? If not, what relief the workman concerned is
entitled to?”
2366 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
The claimant filed his claim statement pleading inter alia that he was appointed as a helper in the
respondent/management in February 2003 and drawing monthly salary @2000/- alongwith admissible TA and
DA revised from time to time. During course of his engagement he had rendered service for more than 240 days
in a calendar year to the full satisfaction of the employer and thus was in continuous service of the management.
On 17.04.2006 the management illegally terminated his service without assigning any reason and while doing so
intentionally omitted to follow the procedure of labour law laid u/s 25F of the ID Act. The said action of the
management was illegal as no termination notice, notice pay, or compensation was paid to him. Since the date of
termination the workman is unemployed. Finding no other remedy he served a demand notice on the
management and raised a dispute before the Labour Commissioner where conciliation was taken up. The
conciliation failed and the appropriate government referred the matter to this tribunal for adjudication. The
claimant has prayed that a direction be issued to the management for reinstating him in service with continuity
and payment of back wages alongwith other consequential benefits.
Notice being served the management BSNL appeared and filed WS denying the stand taken by the
claimant/workman. While denying the employer employee relationship between the management and the
workman it has been pleaded that that the claimant was never appointed by the management nor he had rendered
continuous service for more than 240 days in a calendar year as claimed by him. The specific plea of the
management is that it is a statutory corporation owned and controled by the Government of India. It is not an
industry as per the definition of ID Act. The government owned company has its own Rules and Regulations for
recruitment of the employees in different cadre which has been approved by the Government of India. On
10.01.2003 the General Manager Telecom District BSNL and M/s Keshav Security Services New Delhi had
entered into an agreement for upkeep of Telecom installation in Telecom Exchange of Gurgaon Telecom
District after approval of the tender. The said contract was valid for a period of one year from February 2003 to
July 2004. The workman was engaged by the said contractor for attending some casual works. In clause 8 and
clause 15 of the said agreement there were specific clauses stipulating that the acceptance of the tender for
engagement of aforesaid work shall not entitled the contractor or anybody employed by him for the purpose of
future absorption or employment in BSNL and the manpower so deployed by the contractor will have no claim
whatsoever for absorption in BSNL later on. The other stand taken by the management is that the claimant was
working casually and was being paid on the contingency of the work and his duty was never continuous nor he
was the employee of the management. Thus, the management has pleaded that his claim for reinstatement has no
merit. Dispute has also been raised by the management about the belated service of demand notice on the
management on 12.10.2007. It has also been pleaded that the claimant since had admitted before the conciliation
officer about his engagement through the contractor, the prayer for reinstatement made in this proceeding is
liable to be dismissed.
By filing corrigendum the workman challenge the stand of the management and also apleaded that
initially for one year he was working under the contractor. But in the year 2004 he was taken by the
management in its payroll and worked as such till 17.04.2006 when his service was terminated illegally. During
this period i.e from August 2004 to 17.04.2006 he was getting salary from BSNL directly and during this period
he had worked for more than 240 days in a calendar year and thereby acquired the status of a temporary
employee. He has also pleaded that the J.T.O of the management was paying his salary every month and the
management was maintaining the record to that effect. In order to deprive him of his legal rights the
management is suppressing the truth and withholding the documents.
On the rival pleading the following issues were framed.
(1)
Whether there exists any relationship of employer and employee.
(2)
As per terms of the reference.
The claimant examined himself as WW1 and exhibited the photocopies of the vouchers showing
payment to him by the management during the relevant period which have been marked in a series of WW1/1 to
WW1/57. The AGM legal of the management testified as MW1 and proved two documents marked as MW1/1
to MW1/2. MW1/1 is a representation made by a workman to the secretary/ Chief Labour Commissioner
alleging arbitrary rejection of his demand notice and MW1/2 is a photocopy of the agreement dated 01.01.2003
entered between the management and M/s Keshav Security Services.
At the outset of the argument the Ld. A/R for the workman submitted that an application was filed
praying for a direction to the management for a production of the records of the management evidencing
engagement of the claimant and also documents relating to payment made to him directly by the management.
The management took a plea that the documents being beyond the period of preservation are not available and
not traceable. Thus, this tribunal by order dated 02.04.2014 gave liberty to the claimant for production of
secondary evidence in respect of payment vouchers and accordingly the documents marked as WW1/1 to
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : जसतम् बर 12, 2020/भाद्र 21, 1942
2367
WW1/57 were filed. The Ld. A/R for the workman also advanced argument that the management is guilty of
suppression of material documents and by placing the documents marked as WW1/1 to WW1/57 the workman
has successfully discharged the burden of proving that he was working continuously for the management by
completing 240 days of work in a calendar year as has been defined u/s 25B of the ID Act 1947. The counter
argument of the management was that the workman has not produced any document to prove his employment
by the management. The said employment having not been proved according to the prescribed standard of
proof, the allegation that his service was terminated illegally is baseless and the reference is liable to be
answered against the workman. He also submitted that the workman was an employee of the contractor and his
claim is maintainable against the said contractor but not against BSNL. Argument was also advanced that BSNL
not being an industry the industrial dispute is not maintainable.
FINDING
ISSUE No. 1
This is the Moot point to be answered in this proceeding. In his oral evidence the claimant has stated
that in February 2003 he was appointed as a helper in the establishment of the management on a monthly salary
of Rs. 2000/- alongwith admissible TA and DA. He was working continuously and had completed 240 days of
work in the calendar year preceding to the date of his termination on 17.04.2006. This statement of the claimant
is in the line of the pleadings made by him in the claim statement. To corroborate his oral testimony he has filed
photocopies of the number of vouchers for the period between 2004 to 2006. During cross examination he was
asked by the management about the appointment letter if any in his possession. The witness answered in
negative with explanation that no appointment letter was issued to him. He was also asked if his appointment
was through Keshav Security in the year 2003 to which he also denied. The Ld. A/R for the management also
cross examined him about his admission made in the appeal to the secretary about the engagement through the
contractor to which he also denied. On behalf of the management the memo of appeal filed by the workman to
the Secretary Cum Chief Labour Commissioner central has been filed and marked as MW1/1 but the said
document nowhere contains the admission of the workman about his appointment through the contractor.
On the contrary on behalf of the workman evidence has been adduced to the effect that his initial
appointment was in February 2003 and from August 2004 he was under the direct payroll of the management. In
order to prove the same the workman has filed the copies of several payment vouchers which relate to the period
August 2004 to March 2006. Under these vouchers which have been marked in a series of WW1/1 to WW1/57
the claimant workman was paid remuneration though at different rates per month. These are the vouchers of the
Indian Telecom Department containing the seal and signature of the JTO Telephone Exchange Gurgaon
showing payments to the claimant Sunder Singh. The management has not denied the credibility of these
documents since the originals being in their custody could not be produced despite the direction given by the
tribunal. These are all old documents created during an undisputed point of time. The management being the
custodian of the originals when failed to produce the same this tribunal has no hesitation in accepting the
secondary evidence in terms of section 63 of the Indian Evidence Act 1872.
In the case of Steel Authority of India vs. National Union Waterfront Worker Union reported in
(2001) 7SCC Page 1, the Hon’ble Apex Court have also prescribed for the effective control test to ascertain
about the relationship of the workman with the management or the contractor. Not only that in the case of
Chintaman Rao (1958(II)LLJ252) the Apex court ruled that the concept of employment involves 3 ingredients
(i)Employer (ii) Employee (iii) Contract of Employment. The employer is one who employees or engages the
service of other person. The employee is one who works for another for hire. The employment is the contract of
service between the employer and employee, where under the employee agrees to serve the employer subject to
his control and supervision. In the case of Food Corporation of India reported in (1985(ii) LLJ4) the Hon’ble
Apex Court pronounced that the contract of employment always discloses a relationship of command and
obedience between them. Where a contractor emplyoes a workman to do the work which he contracted with a
third person to accomplish, the workman of the contractor would not become more than the workman of the
third person.
In the case of Ram Singh and Others vs. Union Territory Chandigarh and Others (2004)1 SCC
126 the Hon’ble Apex Court have elaborately discussed the factors to be considered for determining the
employer employee relationship and the factors include control, integration power of appointment, liability to
pay, liability to organize work etc. Thus, from the above analysis of the Principle of Law, it emerges that the
effective control is a test to determine the employer employee relationship between the parties.
The management in its WS took a stand that the claimant was engaged through the contractor
M/s. Keshav Security with whom the management had entered into an agreement on 01.01.2003 for upkeep of
Telecom installation in Telephone Exchange of Gurgaon Telecom District. A photocopy of the agreement has
2368 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
been filed as MW1/2. This document was executed on 01.01.2003 between the GM Telecom District Gurgaon
and M/s Keshav Security Agency and the validity of the contract was for one year from the date of execution of
the contract. This means the contract expired on 01.01.2004 since both the parties had signed the same on
01.01.2003. No document has been filed by the management to prove that the contract was extended beyond the
period 01.01.2004. Apart from the contract no other document has been filed by the management to prove that
the claimant was a person deployed by the contactor to work in the premises of BSNL.
BSNL is a public office dealing with valuable machineries and records. It is a fact presumable that any
person other than the employee of the BSNL would not be allowed to enter the premises for any work without
proper verification of the identity and issue of identity card or entry pass. In this case though the management
has taken a specific stand about the engagement of the claimant through the contractor not a single piece of
paper has been produced to prove the fact that he was issued entry pass or identity card. On the contrary the
claimant by producing the payment voucher has successfully proved his engagement directly under BSNL
which in turn proves his relationship with BSNL as its employee.
In this proceeding the workman has all along maintained that he was working under the supervision
and control of management and not the contractor. While testifying as WW1 he fortified the said fact. This
statement alone indicates the effective supervision of the work of the workman by management which is also
evident from the document like the payment vouchers. Hence it is concluded that the workman was the
employee of the management and the contract if any between the management and the contractor is a
camouflage. Issue No.1 is accordingly answered in the favour of the workman and it is held that he was working
for the management till his service was dispensed with from 17.04.2006.
ISSUE No. 2
The reference has been received to adjudicate the reliefs the workman is entitled to in case he is held to
be employed by the management. In view of the finding arrived in respect of issue no.1 it is now to be decided if
he is entitled to the relief of reinstatement and back wages and other consequential benefits.
The claimant has pleaded that during the period between February 2003 to 17.04.2006 he was working
continuously for the management and during the calendar year preceding to the date of his termination he had
worked for more than 240 days. The Ld. A/R for the management raised serious objection and pointed out that
the claimant in his rejoinder filed to the WS has clearly stated that he is in possession of documents to prove that
he had worked for 240 days in the preceding calendar year. No document to that effect having been filed the
plea is liable to be rejected. This argument of the Ld. A/R doesn’t sound convincing since the workman in his
application filed u/s 11(3) of the ID Act had prayed for production of the said documents but the management
failed to do so and this tribunal considering the plea of the management that original documents are not
available allowed the secondary evidence to be adduced by the workman. There is no dispute that the employer
or the management is the custodian of the documents relating to the employment and payment made to the
persons working for the management. In this case the management has shed its responsibility with regard to the
original documents on the plea that the documents being for beyond the period of preservation are not available.
In such a situation the claimant is left with no other option than producing the secondary evidence or the
photocopies. The remarkable aspect of this proceeding with regard to the document marked as exhibit WW1/1
to WW1/57 is that at no point of time the management has disputed the authenticity of the said documents.
Thus, from the oral and documentary evidence adduced by the claimant/workman the inevitable conclusion is
that the claimant was working for the management BSNL during the period August 2004 to 17.04.2006 and
getting payment directly from the management BSNL through its official having the designation JTO.
The law is well settled that the burden always lies upon the workman to prove whether he had worked
continuously for 240 days or more in the preceding calendar year. Once the workman succeeds in discharging
the initial burden, the same shifts on to the management to disprove the same. In this case the workman in his
oral statement has stated that from February 2003 to 17.04.2006 he was working continuously for the
management and being in its payroll was getting the salary from JTO through vouchers. In order to prove the
same the workman has filed several payment vouchers and the management has not disputed the authenticity of
the same at any point of time. On the basis of these documents the claimant has advanced a claim that for being
in continuous service of the management and having completed 240 days of work he is entitled to a temporary
status. But his service was terminated illegally without complying the provision of section 25F of the ID Act
and for the said unfair labour practice meeted to him he is entitled to reinstatement into service with all
consequential benefits including the back wages.
The management has not denied that the date on which the employment of the workman was brought to
an end he was not paid any retrenchment compensation, retrenchment notice or notice pay in terms of section
25F of the ID Act. The only explanation offered is that the workman not being an employee of the management
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : जसतम् बर 12, 2020/भाद्र 21, 1942
2369
there was no need to comply the provision of section 25F. The Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of
Superintending Engineer TWAD Board and Another vs. M Natesan and others reported in (2019) 2 SCC
(L and S) 160 have held that when the casual labour daily wager proves to have worked continuously for 240
days in a year and thereby discharges the initial burden of proves he is entitled to reinstatement with back
wages.
Way back in the year 1980 the Hon’ble Apex Court of India in the case of Surendra Kumar Verma and
Others vs. CGIT Delhi had observed that
“Plain commonsense dictates that the removal order terminating the service of the workman must
ordinarily lead to the reinstatement in the service of the workman. It is as if the order was never been
made and so it must ordinarily lead to back wages. But there may be exceptional circumstance which
makes it impossible for the employer to direct reinstatement with full back wages.”
In such cases the Hon’ble Apex Court held that the appropriate order would be for payment of
compensation in lieu of reinstatement. But in the case of G.M ONGC Silchar vs. ONGC Contractual Worker
Union reported in 2008 LLR 801 the Hon’ble Apex Court after giving due consideration to several
observations in different pronouncement which suggest that a workman who was put in 240 days or a
contractual worker is not entitled automatically to regularization came to hold that in appropriate cases
regularization can be ordered.
Here is a case where the workman has prayed for a relief simplicitor for reinstatement to service with
back wages. The basic issue in the present case is the status of the workman and whether he is an employee of
the management. The issue No. 1 in this regard has already been decided in favour of the workman. While
adducing evidence the workman has successfully prove that he is not been gainfully employed during the
intervening period between his termination and date of his examination in this proceeding. The Ld. A/R for the
workman strenuously argued that the workman having not attained the age of superannuation an order should be
passed for his reinstatement into service. But from the evidence it appears that the workman had worked in the
management for a brief period i.e from February 2003 to April 2006. The Hon’ble Supreme Court in the case of
Management Hindustan Tools Limited vs. Ghanshyam Sharma reported in 2018LLR1285 (SC) have
clearly held that when the workman worked for a brief period, in such a case reinstatement is not justified. The
Labour court should award lumpsum compensation instead of reinstatement taking recourse to the powers u/s
11A of the ID Act. Of course in this case the management has not adduced any evidence about the gainful
employment of the workman. But considering all the aspects emerging from the evidence it is felt proper to
award a lumpsum compensation to the workman instead of directing his reinstatement in service with
consequential benefits.
In view of the foregoing discussion the issue is answered accordingly and it is directed that the
management shall pay Rs. 5,00,000/- as a lumpsum compensation. Hence, ordered.
ORDER
The reference be and the same is answered in favour of the workman. It is directed that the
management shall pay a lumpsum compensation of Rs. 5,00,000/- to the workman within 3 months from the
date when the award would be notified and made executable. If the management would fail to pay the amount
within the time stipulated, the same shall carry interest @9% per annum from the date of the notification of the
award till the payment is made. Send a copy of this award to the Appropriate Government for notification as
required under section 17 of the ID act 1947.
The reference is accordingly answered.

AWARD
The dispute under reference pertains to non-payment of 19% compensation for increased working
hours of India Government Mints, Kolkata, Mumbai and Hyderabad from 37½ to 44 hours per week consequent
upon recommendation of 5th Pay Commission. It appears that in 1951 the General Manager, Government of
India Mint had attempted to enhance working hours from 37½ to 40 hours per week and the authorities also
started deducting salaries from the pay packet for not discharging duties of 40 hours per week whereupon the
employees moved an application No. PWA 353 of 1951 before the authority of the Payment of Wages Act. The
application was allowed and the working hours of the employees were maintained to 37 ½ hours per week and
deduction from salary was held to be illegal. After submission of 4th Pay Commission report in 1986 in which
working hours of India Govt. Mint was mentioned as 44 hours, a circular was issued by the General Manager,
India Govt. Mint on 21st November, 1986 enhancing working hours from 37 ½ hours to 44 hours. However, it
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : जसतम् बर 12, 2020/भाद्र 21, 1942
2371
was cancelled by diary order dated 15th January, 1987. In this background the Mint management issued a notice
under Section 9A of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 on 16th January, 1988 proposing to enhance the working
hours from 37 ½ to 44 hours a week in terms of recommendation of 4th Pay Commission. Aggrieved by the said
notification and rejection of objection against the notification of notice the union filed a writ petition before the
Hon’ble High Court of Calcutta praying for order to direct the management of Mint to rescind or cancel the
notice under section 9A of the Act of 1947for enhancing the working hours. However, during pendency of this
writ petition, recommendation of 5th Pay Commission came in and for implementation of which several round of
discussion by the General Manager of Mint with the union representatives were held. In this connection a
meeting was held on 15th April, 1998 with the various unions of India Government Mint, Kolkata, Hyderabad
and Mumbai. The minutes of this meeting were sent to the Ministry of Finance. Subsequently on 5th of May,
1998 a further meeting was held in which various decisions were adopted mutually by and between the parties.
During above meetings the unions agreed for increase of working hours from 37 ½ to 44 hours per week, but
demanded 19% compensation for increase of working hours in the existing pay. The demand was sent to the
Ministry of Finance for favourable consideration. One of the points of discussion was also regarding 10 hours
overtime per week at the usual applicable rates in addition to stipulated 44 hours. Ministry of Finance, however,
turned down the demand for payment of 19% compensation for increase of working hours as per
recommendation of 5th Pay Commission observing that the employees shall be entitled for revised pay scale
from the date on which the Mints start working 44 hours a week. This decision resulted in industrial dispute
which has been referred to this National Tribunal by the Central Government in exercise of its powers under
Section 7B read with Section 10(1A) constituted a National Tribunal vide order No. L-16011/3/2004-IR(DU)
dated 06.06.2005 and referred the industrial dispute in the following language:
“Whether the action of the management of India Government Mint in not granting of 19%
compensation for the increased working hours from 37.5 hours per week to 44 hours per week (as per
recommendation of Vth Pay Commission), is just and legal? If not, to what relief the workmen are
entitled?”
2.
All India Mint and Presses Employees Federation, Calcutta Mint Workers Union, Calcutta Mint
Employees Union, Hyderabad Mint Staff Association, Hyderabad Mint Employees Union, Bharatiya Mazdoor
Sangh, Hyderabad, Takshal Karmik Sangh, Hyderabad, Takshal Mazdoor Sabha Mint Premises Union,
Mumbai, Takshal Mazdoor Sabha, Mumbai have filed their respective statements of claim in response to the
above reference. All the unions have pleaded almost similar set of facts. It is stated that there are four units of
India Government Mints situated at Kolkata, Mumbai, Hyderabad and Noida, but the nature of services rendered
by Noida Mint is different from others. At Kolkata, Mumbai and Hyderabad Mints coins are made from virgin
state whereas at Noida Mint bank coins are stamped. As such, it is claimed, the workmen of Kolkata, Mumbai
and Hyderabad Mints belong to one class while workmen of Noida Mint belong to separate class. This was the
reason why the number of working hours at Noida Mint from its very inception from the year 1984 has been
more than the working hours of the workmen of other three mints. The process of manufacturing coins from
virgin state is more rigorous than the process of stamping of coins. It is further pleaded that in Fourth Pay
Commission report the normal working hours was incorrectly recorded due to inadvertence as 44 hours per
week. The working hours of employees of Kolkata, Mumbai and Hyderabad Mint had been 37 ½ hours per
week at the time of recommendation of Fourth Pay Commission also. There was no recommendation in Fourth
Pay Commission report for increase of the working hours from 37 ½ to 44 hours per week. Though the notice
under Section 9A of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 was issued proposing to enhance the working hours from
37 ½ to 44 hours, but the same was challenged by the unions through a writ petition filed before the Hon’ble
High Court at Calcutta during pendency of which the report of Firth Pay Commission was published. Various
meetings were held by the General Manager of the Mints with the union representatives for implementation of
Fifth Pay Commission report. The demand of 19% compensation in case of increase of working hours from 37
½ to 44 hours per week was also discussed in the meeting held on 15th April, 1998 and 5th May, 1998 and
forwarded to the Ministry of Finance for favourable consideration. Therefore, the Writ Petition No. 9523(W) of
1988 which was pending before the Hon’ble High Court at Calcutta was not pressed by the petitioners. The
members of the unions at all material times till February, 2004 had been discharging their duties of 44 hours
plus 10 hours overtime allowance per week on the basis of the said agreement with regard to above
compensation. The demand of the unions for payment of 19% compensation was not accepted and a diary order
dated 24th March, 2005 determining the normal working hours as 44 hours per week was issued by the Mint
authorities. It was also a notice under Section 9A of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 intending to give effect to
the diary order with effect from 18th April, 2005. There cannot be any increase in the number of working hours
of an employee without corresponding compensation thereof. Therefore, 6 ½ working hours per week should be
compensated with corresponding increase in the pay packet. The workmen are required to work 17.73% of
hours of extra work. Accordingly taking into account the anomalies of pay as recommended by the Fifth Pay
2372 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
Commission, the percentage of compensation was arrived at 19% and promised by the management of the Mint.
The unions have prayed that the demand raised by the unions for 19% compensation for increase in working
hours from 37 ½ to 44 hours per week should be accepted and the action of the management in not granting
compensation as above, may be declared unjust, illegal and improper.
3.
The management of India Government Mint has filed its written statement in reply to the pleadings
submitted by the unions in which it is pleaded that the normal working hours of Kolkata, Mumbai and
Hyderabad Mints was 37½ hours which has been enhanced to 44 hours as normal working hours per week after
implementation of Fifth Central Pay Commission report with effect from 27.05.1998, but the normal working
hours of Noida Mint have been 44 hours from the very inception. The management of India Government Mint,
Kolkata had issued a notice under Section 9A of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 enhancing the normal
working hours from 37 ½ to 44 hours per week which was challenged by the Calcutta Mint Workers Union and
others in Writ Petition No. 9523(W) of 1988 before the Hon’ble High Court at Calcutta , however, it was
dismissed on the ground of maintainability. Though in appeal stay order was granted by the Division Bench of
the Hon’ble Court, but the same was withdrawn by the Calcutta Mint Workers Union on 13th May, 1998. A
meeting was held by the Joint Secretary, Ministry of Finance with the representatives of all unions on the issue
of implementation of recommendations of Fifth Pay Commission on 15th April, 1998 in which the workers
demanded 19% compensation on introduction of 44 hours normal working hours. However, it was decided that
the issue would be taken up for favourable consideration with the Department of Expenditure. Another meeting
was held on 5th May, 1998 between the Mint management and the members of steering committee of the unions.
It is further pleaded that the management has not given any assurance in writing regarding 19% compensation
for increased working hours. The Calcutta Mint Workers Union had also moved an application No. 115 of 2001
and MA No. 74 of 2001 before the Central Administrative Tribunal in the matter of 19% compensation, wherein
the Tribunal vide its order dated 08.02.2001 directed the Mint authority to take decision and communicate the
same. In compliance of the order of the Tribunal the communication dated 1th May, 2001 was issued by the
Director, Government of India, Ministry of Finance denying any justification for grant of compensation and that
from 01.01.1996 to 26.05.1998 the pay should be proportionately depressed where the workmen did not work
for 44 hours a week. It is also pleaded that the employees of Kolkata, Mumbai and Hyderabad and Noida Mints
belong to Central Government and governed by CCA Rules, 1965, Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 is not
applicable in case of employees of Mint. It is also pleaded that India Government Mint, Kolkata has been
declared a public utility service under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947.
4.
Rejoinders have been filed in reply to the pleadings in written statement reiterating the facts pleaded in
the statements of claim. It is also pleaded that increase in working hours was accepted only on assurance of the
management of mint for favourable consideration. Hence principle of Promissory Estoppels is applicable and
Mint authority is duty hound to grant 19% compensation for increased working hours.

On behalf of the workmen WW-01, Shri V.T. Bhaste, WW-02, Shri Provat Ghosh, WW-03,
Shri Biswanath Sikdar, WW-04, Shri K. Dasavaranam, WW-05, Shri K. Uma Maheswara Rao, WW-06,
Shri Jaywantrao Yeshwantrao Rao have been examined. On behalf of the management only witness MW-01,
Shri Shahid Ashraf has been examined. Parties have also filed number of documentary evidences which shall be
taken up at appropriate stage in the findings of the Award for convenience.
6.
I have heard the learned counsels for the unions and also for the management of Government of India
Mint.
7.
The learned counsels for the unions have submitted that increase in working hours amounts to change
in condition of service and notice under Section 9A of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 was mandatory to effect
any change in working hours. The unions had agreed to work for the increased working hours for 44 hours only
on assurance of the management of Mint to pay 19% compensation. Hence the management is bound to pay
19% compensation for increased working hours.
8.
Per contra, the learned counsel for the India Government Mint has argued that acceptance of the
revised pay scale by the employees amounts to waiver of notice under Section 9A of the Act. The steering
committee of the unions had entered into agreement/settlement in a meeting with the General Manager of Mint
giving consent for increase of working hours from 37 ½ to 44 hours. Mint management never gave any
assurance for payment of 19% compensation for increased working hours.
9.
Based on the rival pleadings and submissions of the unions and the management following points of
determination may be delineated –
1.
Whether India Government Mint is an industry?
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : जसतम् बर 12, 2020/भाद्र 21, 1942
2373
2.
Whether judgment in case No. PWA 353 of 1951 under Payment of Wages Act operates as res-
judicata?
3.
Whether notice under Section 9A of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 is mandatory?
4.
Whether acceptance of revised pay scale as recommended by Pay Commission would amount to
waiver of notice under Section 9A of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947?
5.
Whether India Government Mint is bound to pay 19% compensation to the employees by virtue
of principles of Promissory Estoppels?
Mint as industry
10.
Though at the very outset the management of Government of India Mint has taken the point of
maintainability that the employees of Kolkata, Mumbai and Hyderabad Mints belong to Central Government
and they are governed by CCS Rules, 1965, therefore, provisions of Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 and other
labour laws are not applicable, but in paragraph 12 of the written statement the management has also pleaded
that India Government Mint, Kolkata is under the Industrial Disputes Act and is governed by the provisions of
Factories Act, 1948. Not only this the management has also pleaded that above units of India Government Mint
have been converted into a public sector unit of SPMCIL since 13th January, 2016. Government notification
dated 10th February, 2006 has also been filed on record to the effect that in pursuance of cabinet decision on 2nd
September, 2005, Government of India has decided to corporatize the functions of nine units of Department of
Economic Affairs and accordingly all the existing functions of those nine units including Security Presses etc in
respect of security grade papers and coin and printing of currency notes and non-judicial stamp papers have
been transferred to a wholly owned company viz. “Security Printing and Mining Corporation of India Limited”.
Consequently, the management, control, operation and maintenance of production etc. have been transferred to
the company. Statutory definition of “Industry” is given in Section 2(j) of the Act of 1947 –
“2(j) “industry” means any business, trade, undertaking, manufacture or calling of employers and
includes any calling, service, employment, handicraft, or industrial occupation or avocation of
workmen:”
11.
Above definition of ‘industry’ was considered by the Hon’ble Apex Court in Bangalore Water
Supply v. Rajappa, AIR 1978 SC 548 where it has been observed -
“Where (i) any systematic activity, (ii) organized by cooperation between employer and employee (the
direct and substantial element is chimerical), (iii) for the production and or distribution goods and
services calculated to supply human wants and wishes (not spiritual or religious but inclusive of
material things or services geared celestial bliss i.e. making on large scale Prasad or food; prima facie,
there is an ‘industry’ in that enterprise.)”
It was observed that mere absence of profit motive will not necessarily push the activity out of the pole
of industry, further that act undertaken in fulfillment of the state’s constitutional obligation or in discharge of
constitutional or sovereign functions is excepted from the definition of ‘industry’. However, Hon’ble High
Court of Delhi in Union of India v. Raj Kumar Shah (WP (C) 3495 of 2015 decided on 20.01.2020 while
considering the question whether the Controller General of Patents, Design and Trade Marks was an industry,
held that every function which is performed by the government is not sovereign. Sovereign functions which are
core and inalienable are exempted from Section 2(j) of the Act of 1947.Sovereign functions become inalienable
only when it becomes impossible to delegate them to any other authority, then only it is exempted from the
ambit of Section 2(j) of the Act. Functions such as collection of tax, maintenance of law and order, external
relations which have at all time to be performed by the government and the government alone would qualify as
‘inalienable’ sovereign functions.
12.
In the instant case, as it has been seen above, the units of India Government Mint has been corporatized
and converted into a public sector unit of SPMCIL (Security Printing and Mining Corporation of India Limited)
on 13.01.2006 as a consumer goods industry engaged in the manufacture/production of currency and Bank
Notes, Security Paper, non-judicial stamp papers, postal stamps and stationery, cheques, bonds etc., thus these
functions cannot be said to be inalienable and sovereign functions. Not only this, it is admitted case between the
parties that the units of India Government Mint have been declared public utility services under the provision of
Section 2(n) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. Only industry specified in First Schedule can be declared
public utility services. Hence, obviously the units of Indian Government Mint comes within the definition of
industry and provisions of Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 apply to it. Apart from this a specific issue whether
Mint is an industry or not had also come up for consideration before the Hon’ble Andhra Pradesh High Court in
Writ Petition No. 3586 of 1982 (The management of India Government Mint, Hyderabad v. workmen) In
2374 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
which the Mint was held to be not an industry. Against this judgment of the Hon’ble Single Bench appeal was
preferred before the Hon’ble Division Bench in Writ Appeal No. 107 of 1988 where Mint was considered to be
industry. Special Leave petition filed against the judgment of the Hon’ble Division Bench was also dismissed by
the Hon’ble Apex Court. Thus it is established that Mint is an ‘Industry” within the meaning of Section 2(j) of
the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947.
Res-judicata
13.
Learned counsel for the unions have submitted that the working hours of units have been 37½ hours
per week. Attempts were made by the Mint management in 1951 to enhance the working hours without giving
notice under Section 9A of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, when the Mint management illegally tried to
enhance the working hours from 37½ to 40 hours and also tried to deduct wages for 2½ per week from the
workers who did not work for 40 hours. The matter went to the authority under the Payment of Wages Act
which ruled that normal working hours of unit was 37½ hours per week since the creation of Mint and the
employer has no right to increase the working hours in absence of contract without increase of their wages. In
these circumstances, learned counsel for the unions have contended that in view of judgment of authority under
the Payment of Wages Act the working hours cannot be increased without increase in wages of the employees
and principles of res-judicata will be applicable in the matter. I do not agree with the contentions of the learned
counsels that principles of res-judicata applies in such circumstances.
14.
Principles of res-judicata has been incorporated in Section 11 of Code of Civil Procedure which reads
as follows –
“Section 11. No court shall try any suit or issue in which the matter directly and substantially in issue
has been directly and substantially in issue in a former suit between the same parties, or between
parties under whom they or any of them claim, litigating under the same title, in a Court competent to
try such subsequent suit or the suit in which such issue has been subsequently raised, and has been
heard and finally decided by such court.”
In order to apply the principles contained in Section 11 of Code of Civil Procedure following
conditions must satisfy –
1.
There must be a suit and a former suit between the said parties;
2.
The former suit must have been heard and finally decided;
3.
The former court must be competent to try the second suit; and
4.
The matter must have been directly and substantially in issue in former suit also.
14.
Conditions (3) and (4) are relevant and important to the matter in issue. It is essential that the former
court must be competent to try the subsequent suit. Thus the decision in a previous suit by a court, not
competent to try the subsequent suit, will not operate as res-judicata. The principle behind this condition is that
the decision of the court of limited jurisdiction ought not to be final and binding on a court of unlimited
jurisdiction. Section 15 of the Payment of Wages Act, 1936 limits the jurisdiction and power of the Authority to
the determination of claim arising out of deduction from wages or delay in the payment of wages which cannot
be extended to include the power to adjudicate upon a matter under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. The
Authority under the Payment of Wages Act is a court of limited jurisdiction. Only Industrial Tribunal or Labour
Court is competent to determine such matters.
15.
Apart from that, it is also necessary that the matter must have been directly and substantially in issue
before the formal court. From the perusal of judgment passed by the Authority under the Payment of Wages Act
Ext. W(I) - 1 it is clear that the matter of violation of provision of Section 9A of the Act of 1947 was not in issue
before the court in Case of PWA 353 of 1951. Thus no question of application of principles of res-judicata
arises.
Notice under Section 9A of the Act of 1947
16.
Undisputedly the employer has every right to change the condition of service after serving notice under
Section 9A of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. Item No. 4 of the Fourth Schedule of the Act of 1947 shows
that hours of work is to be treated as condition of service. It is also not disputed that change in working hours is
condition of service which can be varied by the employer after giving notice under Section 9A of the Act of
1947. The provision of Section 9A of the Act of 1947 may be reproduced below for convenience -
9A. Notice of change – No employer, who proposed to effect any change in the conditions of service
applicable to any workman in respect of any matter specified in the Fourth Schedule, shall effect such change –
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : जसतम् बर 12, 2020/भाद्र 21, 1942
2375
(a)
Without giving to the workmen likely to be affected by such change a notice in the prescribed
manner of the nature of the change proposed to be effected; or
(b)
within twenty-one days of giving such notice;
Provided that no notice shall be required for effecting any such change –
(a)
Where the change is effected in pursuance to any settlement or award; or
(b)
Where the workmen likely to be affected by the change are persons to whom the Fundamental
and Supplementary Rules, Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, Civil
Services (Temporary Service) Rules, Revised Leave Rules, Civil service Regulations, Civilians
and Defence Service (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules or the Indian Railway
Establishment Code or any other rules or regulations that may be notified in this behalf by the
appropriate Government in the Official Gazette, apply.
17.
Thus from the above provision it is clear that whenever any change in condition of service is proposed
by the employer four conditions must be complied with (a) notice giving effect to change; (b) notice must be in
prescribed form; (c) change can be effected to only after lapse of 21 days from the date of service of notice; and
(d) change must be in matter specified in Fourth Schedule.
18.
Now question arises whether the Mint Authority has given notice under Section 9A of the Act of 1947
before enhancing working hours from 37½ to 44 hours per week. The statement of claim of the union reveals
that notice under Section 9A increasing working hours from 37½ to 44 hours a week based on the
recommendation of Fourth Pay Commission was issued by the Mint authorities on 16.01.1988. This was
objected by the workmen and the unions representing workmen of the India Security Press and the Currency
Note Press issued notice of strike proposing to proceed on indefinite strike in view of unjustified increase of
working hours. A Writ Petition was also filed before the Hon’ble High Court at Calcutta praying for withdrawal
of notice. The matter was then admitted in conciliation and during conciliation it was agreed that during
pendency of above writ petition pending before the Hon’ble High Court at Calcutta, notice dated 16.01.1988
would not be given effect to and thus notice of strike was not implemented. Subsequently the Writ Petition No.
9523 (W) of 1998 pending before the Hon’ble High Court at Calcutta was dismissed on 07.01.1991. A failure
report was submitted by the conciliation officer. Reference was also initially refused by the Central
Government, but under the direction issued by the Central Administrative Tribunal, reference was made. Thus
after closure of conciliation proceeding the notice issued on 16.01.1998 cannot be said to survive. Therefore a
fresh notice under Section 9A of the Act of 1947 was required for change in condition of service. Admittedly no
notice under Section 9A of the Act of 1947 was issued thereafter.
Effect of accepting revised Pay Scale as recommended by Pay Commission
19.
Learned counsel for the management of Government of India Mint has submitted that during pendency
of writ petition in Hon’ble Calcutta High Court Fifth Pay Commission has submitted its report and was
implemented by the Central Government. The workmen of Indian Government Mint also took benefit of the
revised pay scale. Enhancement of working hours from 37½ to 44 hours a week was condition precedent for
revision of pay scale and other benefits to the employees. Therefore, question of service of any notice under
Section 9A of the Act of 1947 does not arise. Learned counsel has also submitted that Firth Pay Commission has
specifically dealt with the issue of enhancement of working hours. Contrary to it the learned counsels for the
unions have submitted that the Pay Commission report is not binding on the workmen in absence of notice
under Section 9A of the Act of 1947 and acceptance of revised pay scale by the workmen does not give the
authority to the Mint management to enhance working hours.
20.
Justifying increase in working hours the Fifth Pay Commission in paragraph 66.31 of the report has
observed that mere fact that the Mints have been observing 37½ hours over a century is not a reason enough to
necessitate that status quo should be maintained regardless of changes in the working environment and
condition. A lesser number of working hours might conceivably have been justified in the earlier years when the
coin manufacturing process were not refined enough and involved working in arduous and intemperate
condition. The progressive modernization and automation of the Mints would however have resulted in a fatigue
and this is an aspect that will necessarily have to be kept in view. The Pay Commission have also taken into
consideration the working hours of Noida Mint which was working for 44 hours a week and in order to maintain
uniformity in working hours, the Pay Commission had recommended for enhancement of normal working hours
from 37½ to 44 hours.
21.
Admittedly 5th Pay Commission has already been implemented and the workmen are getting benefits of
the same. WW-01, Shri V.T. Bhaste in his statement has said that in respect of one Mint, the recommendation of
2376 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
Pay Commission has been implemented after fulfilling certain conditions from the workmen side. He has further
stated in his cross-examination that the recommendation of 6th Central Pay Commission has been accepted by
the management as well as by all the employees unions. Other witnesses also have admitted in their cross-
examination that the workmen are getting the revised pay scale and other allowances as recommended by the 5th
and 6th Central Pay Commission.
22.
Now question of waiver arises at this stage as to whet her acceptance of the revised pay scale as
recommended by the Fifth Pay Commission amounts to waiver of notice under Section 9A of the Act of 1947.
This question has been dealt with by the Hon’ble Rajasthan and Bombay High Courts. In Director, State
Forms v. Judge, Industrial Tribunal, 2003 (2) WLN 629 where Project Allowance given @ 10% by the
Government of India where the basic minimum amenities were not available to the workmen at underdeveloped
places was subsequently reduced to 8% which resulted in an industrial dispute. The matter came up before the
Hon’ble High Court. The argument of the management was not accepted by the Hon’ble Rajasthan High Court
that notice to the workmen likely to be affected by the reduction in the rate of Project Allowance was not
required as the Project Allowance was reduced by the management following the report of the Third Pay
Commission which had heard the employees union and associations before making recommendations. The
Hon’ble Court had observed –
“Under Section 9A of the Act before reducing the rate of Project Allowance from 10% to 8% the
Corporation was bound to follow the mandate of Section 9A of the Act. After recommendations of the
Third Pay Commission were accepted by the Government the Appellant blindly followed the same
without taking any independent and voluntary decision on their own with regard to the question
whether or not reduce the Project Allowance. The dependence of the Appellant on the report of the Pay
Commission was so heavy that it thought that since the unions of workmen of various enterprises have
already pleaded their case before the Pay Commission, it was not necessary to give 21 days’ notice to
the employees in the project before effecting the change. This was clearly a wrong approach which
cannot be countenance. Since the Appellant Corporation failed to comply with the provisions of Section
9A the change effected in the rate of Project Allowance payable to the workmen cannot be changed.”
23.
The question of issue of notice under Section 9A of the Act of 1947 before increase in working hours
after acceptance of revised pay by the workmen came up for consideration before the Hon’ble High Court at
Bombay in Writ Petition No. 5400 of 1996 in Union of India v. India Security Press decided on 3rd August,
2010 where the number of working hours from 37½ to 44 hours per week were increased in view of the
recommendation of the Fourth Pay Commission and the workmen have accepted the benefits of the
recommendation of the Pay Commission in as much as they were drawing wages in accordance with the
recommendation. Not only this, but in above case the workmen have also submitted undertaking to abide by the
recommendations. The Hon’ble Court did not accept the above argument advanced by the management and held
that any change in the service condition of workers working in the India Security Press or Currency Note Press
must be preceded by a notice under Section 9A of the Act of 1947. The Hon’ble Court has also held that under
Section 9A of the Act notice of change is required whenever a change is proposed in respect of any matter
specified in Fourth Schedule of the Act. The change in working hours is one of the reason that would require a
notice under Section 9A of the Act. Thus, mere fact that the workmen accepted the revised pay scale would not
waive of the notice under Section 9A of the Act of 1947.
24.
Thus from the above discussion it is clear that the fact that the unions of workmen were heard by the
Pay Commission or the workmen accepted the pay scale as revised by 5th Pay Commission would not obviate
the requirement of giving a prior notice of the proposed change in the condition of service of the workmen of
India Government Mint.
Effect of Agreement with Unions
25.
Where change in condition of service is effected in pursuance of any settlement or Award, notice is not
required. Proviso to Section 9A of the Act of 1947 says –
“Provided that no notice shall be required for effecting any such change –
(a)
Where the change is effected in pursuance to any settlement or award; or
(b)
Where the workmen likely to be affected by the change are persons to whom the Fundamental
and Supplementary Rules, Civil Services (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules, Civil
Services (Temporary Service) Rules, Revised Leave Rules, Civil service Regulations, Civilians
and Defence Service (Classification, Control and Appeal) Rules or the Indian Railway
Establishment Code or any other rules or regulations that may be notified in this behalf by the
appropriate Government in the Official Gazette, apply.”
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : जसतम् बर 12, 2020/भाद्र 21, 1942
2377
Explaining the purpose of giving notice under Section 9A of the Act of 1947 the Hon’ble Bombay
High Court in Navbharat, Hindu Daily, Nagpur v Navbharat Shramik Shanga 1985-I-LLJ 474 (Bombay) has
observed that –
“The intention behind the notice appeared to be that the workmen affected has a chance to raise a
dispute by approaching proper authority. The said dispute can also mature into a reference if the
parties do not arrive at an amicable settlement.”
26.
In the instant case the management of Mint has emphasized the factum of amicable settlement with the
unions. Learned counsel for the management of India Government Mint relying on the minutes of meeting held
on 15th April, 1998 with the unions/associations of India Government Mint, Kolkata, Hyderabad and Mumbai
has submitted that during pendency of writ petition in the Hon’ble High Court at Calcutta Fifth Pay Commission
had submitted its report. Therefore, for implementation of the report of the Fifth Pay Commission the General
Manager, India Government Mint held several meetings with joint action committee of unions/associations of
India Government Mint, Kolkata, Hyderabad and Mumbai and in one of the meeting held on 15th April, 1998 at
New Delhi the unions had agreed that the three mints of India Government would function for 44 hours per
week. In above meeting a demand of 19% compensation on account of introduction of 44 hours work per week
based on recommendation of Fifth Pay Commission was also raised by the workers for which there was an
agreement that this demand would be taken up with the Department of Expenditure for favourable
consideration. Record of discussion held on 15th April, 1998 at New Delhi between India Government Mints and
unions have been filed on record.
27.
For better appreciation of the terms of agreement it would be pertinent to quote minutes of above
meeting held on 15th April, 1998 which is as follows –
“Record of discussions held on 15.04.1998 at New Delhi with Unions/Associations of India Govt.
Mints, Calcutta, Hyderabad & Mumbai.
1.
The three mints will function 44 hrs. per week as normal working hours as recommended by the
fifth Pay Commission. Revised pay scales recommended by the commission as approved by
Government will be allowed to the workers/employees from 1.1.1996 after they start 44 hrs.
normal working per week.
2.
Keeping in view the demand – supply position of coins etc. the General Manager of each Mint
will be authorized to sanction maximum overtime working with a view to increasing production
according to work needs and in conformity with Factories Act i.e. approximately 54 hrs. per
week. The demand supply gap as at present likely to continue in the foreseeable future. The OTA
working will be only subject to review and revision after consultation with the
unions/association.
3.
Overtime Allowance will be allowed on the revised pay scales from 1.1.1996 in conformity with
Government orders/Factories Act.
4.
Increases in production corresponding to the revised weekly working hours including overtime
working will be effected. The base level production, target production and incentive parameters
will be determined on the basis of total weekly working hours including OTA working. Incentive
payment will be based on this.
5.
The eligibility for and ceiling on OTA on the basic pay as per the new pay scales based on 44 hrs.
normal weekly working will be revised appropriately.
6.
The workers/employees demanded 19% compensation on account of introduction of 44 hrs.
normal weekly working hours as per 5th Pay Commission recommendations. This will be taken
up with the Department of Expenditure for favourable consideration.
7.
The General Manager of concerned Mint will take action on the basis of minutes of the above
discussions in conformity with the existing rules/ regulations/ statutory laws/ agreements/
pending litigations/ court orders etc.”
28.
Next meeting was held on 5th May, 1998 between General Manager, India Government Mints and
members of steering committee of unions and associations in which normal working hours of 44 hours with new
pay scale was again reiterated. The minutes of meeting dated 5th May, 1998 may also be reproduced as below –
“Minutes of the meeting held on 5.5.98 at 3.30 P.M. in the Conference Hall with General Manager
along with D.G.M., C.A.O., SR. L.O.W.M. L.O.A.W. Ms and members of steering Committee of
Union & Associations.
2378 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
1.
General Manager stated that O.T.A. Arrears from 1.1.96 will be paid on the basis of 37½ hrs. as
normal hours with new scales till the start of 44 hrs. working as Normal hours. But he added that
this payment will be made only after receiving orders from Ministry.
2.
This point is already clarified in the minutes of the meeting with the Ministry of Finance at point
No. 3.
3.
Regarding distribution of normal working hours, General Manager agreed upon 8 hrs. per day
from Monday to Friday and 4 hours on Saturday as normal working hours per week.
Timing shall be:
9.00 A.M. to 5.30 P.M. Monday to Friday
9.00 A.M. to 1.00 P.M. on Saturday
As regards 48 hrs. per week the timings shall be : -
9.00 A.M. to 5.30 P.M. Monday to Friday
9.00 A.M. to 5.30 P.M. on Saturday.
4.
G.M. expressed that 54 hrs. working can be implemented only after the availability of raw
materials/blanks and consumables required for running plants and machineries are ensured by the
concerned officers of the shop floor. The J.A.C. proposed to extend their co-operation for
implementation of 54 hrs. and proportionate increase in production. However G.M. proposed that
54 hrs./week working will be started from 1.6.98 by which time blanks required for continuous
running along with other consumables will be made available so that there will not be any
problem for smooth working.
5.
G.M. had agreed to take up the matter with Ministry of Finance regarding 19% compensation
with Ministry of Finance.
6.
As regards recommendation made in part B of 5th Pay Commission, the G.M. advised the
employees concerned to submit their representation on the basis of which further action will be
taken. As part ‘C’ does not concern this organization it was not discussed.
The meeting ended with vote of thanks to the Chair.”
29.
It is material to note here that the Bombay Mint Employees Federation had served a notice of strike
dated 18th February, 1998 on account of increase in working hours. The parties entered into conciliation
proceeding during which the notice of strike was withdrawn by the federation on settlement that 7 items of
records of discussion held on 15th April, 1998 at New Delhi would be implemented after compliance with the
relevant statutory provisions and other rules and regulations. The learned counsels for the unions have made
minutes of meeting held on 15.04.1998 basis of their argument for grant of 19% compensation. It is submitted
that one of the terms of agreement in minutes of 15th April, 1998 was that the demand of the unions for grant of
19% compensation on account of introduction of 44 hours normal weekly working hours shall be taken up with
the Department of Expenditure for favourable consideration. The terms of discussion have to be read as a whole.
The unions cannot be allowed to adopt favourable terms and discard the unfavourable one. Paragraph 1 of the
agreement was regarding 44 hours normal working hours of the Mints as recommended by Fifth Pay
Commission. It was also agreed that the revised pay scale will be allowed to the workers from 01.01.1996 after
they start 44 hours normal working per week. Thus the unions accepted that the workers would start working for
44 hours per week and the day they start working for 44 hours, they would be entitled for the revised pay scale.
In pursuance of this agreement the workmen have also started working and they are getting revised pay scale. So
far as demand of 19% compensation is concerned, the management does not appear to have accepted the grant
of 19% compensation. The term of agreement was that their demand would be placed before the Department of
Expenditure for favourable consideration. The term ‘favourable consideration’ does not mean acceptance of
demand. It denotes that the final authority was with the Department of Expenditure and subject to decision of
the Department of Expenditure, the demand of 19% compensation would be disposed of.
30.
The unions also wanted implementation of minutes of 15th April, 1998 and for the enforcement of the
minutes the Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh and Hyderabad Mint Staff Association had gone to the extent of filing
O.A. No. 648 of 1998 in the Central Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad pleading inter alia that on the basis of
recommendation of Fifth Pay Commission the working hours of India Government Mints have been increased
from 37½ to 44 hours a week and in meeting of April, 1998 it was decided that the demand of 19%
compensation on account of increase of working hours to 44 hours would be taken up with the Department of
Expenditure for favourable consideration. In above O.A. the Tribunal directed the Department of Expenditure to
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : जसतम् बर 12, 2020/भाद्र 21, 1942
2379
consider the demand of the employees expeditiously. In Kolkata Bench of the Central Administrative Tribunal
O.A. 115 of 2001 was also filed by the Calcutta Mint Workers Union to the same effect. In this O.A. also the
Calcutta Bench of the Central Administrative Tribunal directed the Department of Expenditure to take decision
and communicate the same to the Applicant within three months vide order dated 8th February, 2001. Thus it is
explicit that the unions themselves wanted the implementation of the agreement/settlement arrived at between
the India Government Mint and the members of the steering committee of unions/associations.
31.
In above set of facts and circumstances, where the unions through their steering committee have
themselves come to the terms of settlement and agreed for implementation of the minutes of meeting held on
15th April, 1998, whether notice under Section 9A of the Act of 1947 wasstill required? Section 9A of the Act of
1947 categorically says that no notice shall be required for effecting any change in condition of service where
the change is effected in pursuance with any settlement or award. From the above discussion it is clear that the
members of the steering committee of unions/associations had come to terms in the meeting of 15th April, 1998
that the three Mints at Kolkata, Hyderabad and Mumbai will function for 44 hours per week as normal working
hours as recommended by Fifth Pay Commission. It was agreed that the revised pay scales recommended by the
Pay Commission will be allowed to the workers/employees from 01.01.1996 after they start 44 hours normal
working per week. The witnesses examined on behalf of the unions have admitted that the unions agreed for
implementation of the 5th Pay Commission report which was recorded in form of a minutes of a meeting. WW-
04, Shri K. Dasavaranam has named it as tripartite settlement. Not only this, in meeting held on 5th May, 1998 it
was again reiterated that the minutes of meeting of 15th April, 1998 would be implemented. The implementation
of minutes of meeting held on 15th April, 1998 was also reiterated in meeting between Mumbai Mint and
Bombay Mint Employees Federation held on 5th May, 1998 during conciliation proceedings. Some of the unions
had also gone to the extent of moving to Central Administrative Tribunal for issue of direction to implement the
minutes of meeting dated 15.04.1998. Thus, in view of above agreement/settlement it is obvious that notice of
change in working hours was not required as provided in Section 9A of the Act of 1947.
32.
Admittedly after direction issued by the Central Administrative tribunal, Hyderabad and also that of
Kolkata the Department of Economic Affairs communicated its decision refusing to pay 19% compensation for
increased working hours.
Promissory Estoppel
33.
The learned counsels for the unions have also taken the point of doctrine of promissory estoppel
against the India Government Mint. It has been submitted by the learned counsels for the unions that appeal
from the Hon’ble High Court was withdrawn on the basis of agreement entered into by and between the parties
whereby it was assured that the claim for 19% compensation would be for “favourable consideration” which
cannot be treated a stray assurance or assurance given in a casual manner. The principles of promissory
estoppel is applicable where one party by words or conduct made to the other a clear or unequivocal promise
which intended to create a legal relation or affect a legal relationship to arise in future knowing or intending that
it would be acted upon by the other party to whom the promise is made and it is, in fact, was acted upon by the
other party. In that case promise would be binding on the party making it and he would not be entitled to go
back on it. Applying the above principles to the facts of the instant case, it appears that the promise as
incorporated in minutes of meeting dated 15.04.1998 was made by the India Government Mint only to place the
demand of 19% compensation before the Department of expenditure. There was no assurance by the India
Government Mint to grant above compensation and the unions had also agreed to this. Placing of demand of
19% compensation to the Department of Expenditure for “favourable consideration” implies only that final
authority to decide or accept the demand lies with the Department of Expenditure. Such promise is no promise
of acceptance of demand. Hence principle of ‘Promissory Estoppel’ does not apply.
34.
Learned counsels for the unions have also submitted that in grant of overtime, Central Administrative
Tribunal, Kolkata had refused to change the deviser and upheld the deviser of 192 as applied by the
management, but the Hon’ble High Court at Calcutta set aside the order passed by the Tribunal and held that
deviser would be 191 instead of 192. The decision of the Hon’ble High Court was challenged before the
Hon’ble Apex Court by way of Special Leave Petition which was dismissed by the Hon’ble Apex Court, but this
argument of the learned counsels for the unions has no reflection on increase of working hours or on grant of
compensation. The deviser was applied treating the normal working hours as 44 hours a week. However, the
judgment is applicable in the matter of grant of quantum of overtime and it has nothing to do with the matter in
controversy in the present case. Merely because the workmen are required to work 17.73 hours of extra work
due to implementation of 5th Pay Commission report the workmen cannot be said to be entitled to 19%
compensation in view of the fact of the agreement entered into between the management and the unionjs on
15.04.1998.
2380 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
36.
Thus, it is concluded that the workmen of India Government Mint represented by the unions are not
entitled for 19% compensation on account of increase in working hours from 37½ to 44 hours per week and the
decision of the management of India Government of Mint in not granting 19% compensation for the increased
working hours from 37½ to 44 hours per week (as per recommendation of the Fifth Pay Commission) is just and
legal. The workmen are not entitled to any relief.
37.
Award is passed accordingly.

ORDER
By Order No. L-42011/53/2014-IR(DU) dated 04.07.2014 and corrigendums of even number dated
07.08.2014 and 22.04.2015 the Government of India, Ministry of Labour in exercise of its powers under Section
10(1)(d) and (2A) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 referred the following dispute to this Tribunal for
adjudication:
“Whether the action of the management of M/s Quantum Global Infrastructure (P) Ltd., a
vendor/service provide under Indus Towers Ltd. Over the issue of alleged illegal termination of
services of 116 security guards w.e.f. 2011 is legal justified? If not, what relief the workmen are
entitled to?”
2
After the above order of reference, notices were issued to all the concerned parties and all of them
appeared by filing their respective letter of authority/vakalatnama. Only Purba Medinipur Zela Security Service
& Allied Workers Union, however, filed its statement of claims and M/s. Indus Towers Ltd. filed its written
statement in reply. Both the unions and also M/s. Quantum Global Infrastructure (P) Ltd. are found absent since
07.11.2019. Opportunity of adducing evidence was given to the unions, but they remained absent 14.01.2020.
Opportunity of adducing evidence was also given to M/s. Indus Towers Limited, but its learned counsel
submitted on 11.03.2020 that in the wake of no evidence being led by the union, they close their evidence.
4.
Union did not file any evidence to support the claim of the workmen. As documentary evidence the
union has filed several documents, but in absence of oral evidence the above documents which are merely photo
copies and prepared on loose papers, they cannot be admitted in evidence to support the claim of the two
workmen.
5.
From the pleadings of the union it appears that 116 workmen were verbally terminated by the
contractor M/s. Quantum Global Infrastructure (P) Ltd. on the instruction of the principal employer, M/s. Indus
Towers Ltd. on different dates. Thus it is a case of ‘retrenchment’ under Section 2(oo) of the Industrial Disputes
Act, 1947. In these circumstances for the compliance of the provisions of Section 25F of the Act, it is obligatory
on the part of the union to show that 116 workmen concerned worked for more than 240 days in a year
preceding the date of their termination. But, there is nothing on record to show that they worked for 240 days
preceding the date of their termination. Therefore, compliance of provisions of Section 25F of the Industrial
Disputes Act, 1947 does not arise.
6.
In view of above, I come to the conclusion that there is no merit in the claims submitted by the union
for the 116 workmen concerned. Therefore, they are not entitled for any relief.
7.
Award is passed accordingly.

[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
AWARD
Sri Khaja Aneesuddin, the Petitioner who worked as Mazdoor in the Respondent’s organization has
filed this petition under Sec. 2A(2) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 against the Respondents Bharat Sanchar
Nigam Ltd., seeking for declaring the oral termination order dated 15.7.1991 passed by Respondent No.1 as
illegal, arbitrary and to set aside the same consequently directing the Respondents to reinstate the Petitioner into
service duly granting all the consequential benefits such as continuity of service, back wages and all other
attendant benefits etc., and such other reliefs as this court may deems fit.
2.
The averments made by the Petitioner in the claim petition are:
Initially the Petitioner was engaged as a casual mazdoor in the month of September, 1986 under
Respondent No.3 and was engaged between September, 1986 and 15.7.1991 with artificial breaks and thereafter
his services were orally terminated without further engagement. It is stated that initially the appointment of the
Petitioner in the month of September, 1986 was in A.P. Telecom which was subsequently privatized/changed as
Bharat Sanchar Nigam Limited. It is further stated that when the Petitioner was terminated from service, he
made several representations to the Respondents for his reengagement. As the Respondents did not pay any
heed to the representation of the Petitioner he was compelled to file OA No.881/1995 before the Hon’ble
Central Administrative Tribunal for a declaration that he is entitled for re-engagement as per CGM AP Telecom
Proc. No.TA/RE/20-1/Rigs/Corr., dated 22.2.1993 as casual mazdoor under the control of the Respondents by
holding the action of the Respondents in not re-engaging him as illegal. The Hon’ble Central Administrative
Tribunal has disposed of the above OA on 9.8.1995 with the following directions:
“In view of what is stated by the applicant, it has to be presumed that he had gained some experience in
the work in the Telecom Department. So, it is in the interest of the applicant, if he is engaged in
preference to a fresher whenever there is work. If the applicant is going to be engaged in pursuance of
this order, none shall be retrenched who are already in service.”
It is further submitted that when the Respondents did not implement the order of the Hon’ble Central
Administrative Tribunal, the Petitioner approached the Hon’ble High Court by filing WP No.17397 of 2000 for
declaring the action of the Respondents in not implementing the order of the Hon’ble Central Administrative
Tribunal passed in OA No.881/1995 dated 9.8.1995 as illegal and arbitrary and consequently directed the
Respondents to implement the order of the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal, Hyderabad by reinstating
the Petitioner with all consequential benefits. The Hon’ble High Court after hearing the Petitioner was pleased
to dismiss the above WP on 18.1.2001 with the following direction:
“Having regard to the decision of the Apex Court in L. Chandra Kumar Vs. Union of India, AIR 1997
SC 1125 in our opinion, this Writ Application is not maintainable as the Petitioner can file appropriate
application before the Learned Tribunal….”
In view of the above direction of the Hon’ble High Court, the Petitioner filed MA No. 129/2002, in OA
No.881/1995 for implementation of the order of Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal dated 9.8.1995,
however, the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal has passed the following directions:
“In the reply statement, the Respondents submitted that the orders of this Tribunal was to engage the
applicant in preference to freshers whenever there is work. If such a contingency arises, two conditions
namely (1) availability of work, and (2) the need of the Respondents organization to engage any
person shall arise, then only need for implementation of Judgement arises….”
It is stated that in view of the above order passed by the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal the
Petitioner has approached the Respondents time and again requesting to permit him to work as Mazdoor in the
department on par with persons on par with him and also subsequent to him and are continuing. It is further
submitted that the Director General of Telecom, New Delhi issued various Circulars including Lr. No. 269-
10/89/STN, dated 7.11.1989 wherein at para 6, it has been provided that temporary status would entitle the
casual labourers to the following benefits:
1.
Wages at daily wages with reference to the minimum of the pay scale for regular Group-D
official including DA, HRA, and CCA.
2.
Benefits in respect of increments in Pay Scale will be admissible for every one year of service
subject to performance of duty for atleast 240 days (206 days in administrative days and
observing 5 day week) in the year.
3.
Leave entitlement will be on prorate basis, 1 day for every 10 days of work. Casual Leave or any
other kind of leave will not be admissible. They will also be allowed to carry forward the leave
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : जसतम् बर 12, 2020/भाद्र 21, 1942
2387
entitlement on their regularization. They will not be entitled to the benefit of encashment of
leave on termination of services for any reason of their fit in service.
4.
Counting of 50% of service rendered under the temporary status for the purpose of retirement
benefits after their regularization.
5.
After rendering 3 years continuous service on attainment of temporary status, the casual
labourers would be treated on par with temporary Group D Employees for the purpose of
contribution to General Provident Fund, and would also further be eligible for grant of Festival
Advance/Flood Advance on the same conditions as are applicable to temporary Group-D
Employees, provided they furnish the sureties from permanent Government servants of this
Department.
6.
Until they are regularized they are entitled for productivity linked bonus only at the rates as
applicable to casual labour.
It is further submitted that the Department of Telecommunication in continuation of the above
orders, reiterated the above provision by various other orders dated 12.2.1999, for sanction of
posts of regular mazdoors for regularization of temporary status casual mazdoors, regularization
of casual mazdoors no.269-94/98-STN-II, dated 29.9.2000 and also No.269-13/99-STN II, dated
25.8.2000. It is also stated that the Petitioner has been appointed as temporary mazdoor in
September, 1986 and however not re-engaged inspite of directions of the Hon’ble Tribunal and
also circulars of the Department time and again, the Petitioner is entitled for reinstatement with
all consequential benefits such as continuity of service, regularization of service etc. Therefore,
the action of the Respondents in terminating the services of the Petitioner is illegal, arbitrary and
in violation of section 25 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 as no notice was issued prior to the
termination of his services. The Petitioner stated that since the date of his termination he
remained unemployed and could not secure any alternative employment inspite of his best efforts
resulting in distress and untold misery and hardship. The Respondents have taken the following
persons who are similarly situated like him into work, namely, S/Sri K. Peddanna(ID No.45/90),
S. Hanumanthu(ID No.30/96), K. Nageshwar (ID No.40/96), V. Goverdhanachari (ID No.41/96)
and V. Srinivas Rao (ID No.39/96) wherein the Petitioner has been discriminated by not giving
similar treatment, which is also violative of article No.14 and 15 in addition to the violation of
section 25 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. With the above averments, the Petitioner prayed
to direct the Respondents to reinstate him into service as Mazdoor with all consequential benefits
by holding the action of the Respondents in terminating the services of the Petitioner orally from
15.7.1991 without issuing any notice as illegal, arbitrary, unjust and violative of the principles of
natural justice and also contrary to section 25F of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 and pass
such other order or orders as this court may deem fit and proper.
3.
The Respondent filed counter with the averments in brief as follows:
In their counter the Respondents while admitting some of the facts made in the claim statement have
also challenged the claim of the Petitioner stating therein that the Petitioner has filed OA No.881/95 before the
Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal seeking the relief of reinstatement with continuity of service and other
attendant benefits. The Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal disposed of the said OA by an order dated
9.8.95 with a direction to the 2nd Respondent to reinstate the applicant as casual mazdoor in preference to
freshers whenever there is work. If the applicant is going to be engaged in pursuance of the orders of Hon’ble
Central Administrative Tribunal, none shall be retrenched who are already in service. It is stated that the subject
matter and the facts in OA No.881/95 filed before the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal and the present
dispute in LC No.117/2007 filed before this Tribunal and the relief sought for by the Petitioner is one and the
same in both the cases. The Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal has already decided the above dispute of
the Petitioner by an order dated 9.8.95. Therefore, principles of resjudicata applies to the present case filed by
the Petitioner. The Respondents also stated that without causing prejudice to the above contentions, it is
further submitted that the Petitioner was appointed as a casual mazdoor in September, 1986 under the control of
Respondent No.3 and was engaged as and when work is available in the telecom Department and also after
completion of work the Petitioner was disengaged. It is submitted that if the order passed by the Hon’ble
Central Administrative Tribunal in OA No.881/95 will be carried out and the Petitioner is going to be engaged
in pursuance of the above order, none shall be retrenched who are already in service. It is also submitted that
since the Petitioner has not been engaged in service and has not worked under the Respondents, he is not
entitled to get any benefit including relief of consequential benefits and other terms and conditions including the
circular Lr.No.269-10/89/STN dated 7.11.1989 on par with regular employees of the Department does not arise.
2388 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
The claim of the Petitioner that the Respondents have not implemented the orders of the Hon’ble
Central Administrative Tribunal and the action of the Respondents’ management is illegal, arbitrary and it is
not proper. It is further submitted that the Petitioner is not in service of the Respondents’ organization in the
year 1999 and subsequently also. The Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal in OA No.881/1995
categorically directed to engage the Petitioner in preference to fresher whenever there is work in the Telecom
Department and further passed order that if the Petitioner is going to be engaged in pursuance of this order, none
shall be retrenched who are already in service. It is further submitted that as the Petitioner is not engaged till
this date, the question of application of existing terms and conditions of regular employees of the Telecom
Department does not arise. Since the Petitioner was not in service, the question of the provisions of Industrial
Disputes Act, including section 25 of the Act does not arise. The Petitioner cannot claim the benefit on par with
the other employees of the Telecom Department since he has not been engaged, and with these averments, the
Respondents submitted for dismissal of the claim petition.
4.
During the course of hearing of this case, the Petitioner has been examined himself as WW1 and also
relied on 6 documents in support of his claim, which have been marked as Exs.W1 to W6. On the other hand,
the Respondents have examined Sri G. Subhash, Asst. General Manager(Admn.) of the Respondents’
management as MW1 and also relied on 8 documents which have been marked as Exs.M1 to M8.
5.
In view of the facts stated above, the points for determination of this case are as follows:
I.
Whether the action of the Respondents’ management in terminating the services of the Petitioner
is illegal, arbitrary and in violation of the principles of natural justice?
II.
Whether the Petitioner is entitled to be reinstated into service as Mazdoor with all consequential
benefits and to what other relief the Petitioner is entitled?
III.
Whether the case is barred by the principles of res judicata?
7.
I have already heard the Learned Counsels for both the sides and also perused the evidence adduced so
far.
8.
Point No.I: During the course of argument, the Learned Counsel for the Petitioner contended that
initially the Petitioner was engaged as a casual mazdoor in the month of September, 1986 under Respondent
No.3 and he was engaged in between September, 1986 and 15.7.1991 with artificial breaks and thereafter the
services of the Petitioner were orally terminated without further engagement. The Petitioner prayed the
Respondent authority to reinstate him into service. But the Respondent did not reinstate him. He made several
representations to the Respondents but it was in vain. Thereafter, the Petitioner was compelled to file OA
No.881/1995 before the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal for a declaration that he is entitled for re-
engagement as per CGM AP Telecom Proc. No.TA/RE/20-1/Rigs/Corr., dated 22.2.1993 as casual mazdoor
under the control of the Respondents by holding the action of the Respondents in not re-engaging him as illegal.
The Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal has disposed of the above OA on 9.8.1995 directing the
Respondents to engage the Petitioner in preference to freshers whenever there is work. Even after passing of
this order, when the Respondents did not engage the Petitioner into service, the Petitioner filed writ petition
No.17397/2000 wherein the Hon’ble High Court dismissed the application as it was not maintainable. Again
the Petitioner filed M.A. No.129/2002 in OA No.881/1995 for implementation of the orders passed in OA No.
881/1995. Again the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal passed order directing the Respondents to
reinstate the Petitioner into service subject to availability of work and to the need of the Respondents’
organization to engage any person when vacancy arises, then only need for implementation of judgement arises.
Inspite of the order of the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal, the Respondents did not reinstate the
Petitioner into service and on this ground the case is not barred by the principles of res-judi-cata. On the other
hand the Learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the Respondent submitted that admittedly, the Petitioner has
taken shelter in the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal by filing OA No.881/1995 on this subject matter
and the facts in OA 881/1995 filed before the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal and the present dispute
in this LC 117/2007 filed before this Tribunal and the relief sought by him in both the cases is one and the same.
He further contended that in this case the workman has been examined himself as WW1, and is cross examined
in both the cases. He admitted that this case and OA NO.881/1995 are against the same termination order. The
OA order is passed directing this Respondents to reinstate the Petitioner into service in preference to freshers
subject to availability of work. He contended that the relief sought for in the present case has already been
decided by the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal. When one court has already decided the same matter,
no court shall decide the same dispute when the same has already been decided by a competent court. The
Petitioner is estopped to agitate the above issue before this court and the relief sought for in the present case is
hit by the principles of res judi cata. In fact, as per the admission of the Petitioner he has approached the
Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal challenging his termination order dated 15.7.1991 and in this case the
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : जसतम् बर 12, 2020/भाद्र 21, 1942
2389
Petitioner has also challenged the same order with the same prayer and this dispute has already been decided by
the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal directing the Respondents to engage the Petitioner into service in
preference to freshers whenever there is work and if the applicant is going to be engaged in pursuance of this
order none shall be retrenched who are already in service. Even the Respondents filed M.A.1/2002 in the same
OA 881/1995, challenging the order passed by the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal dated 9.8.1998, the
Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal also passed the same order directing the Respondents to provide job to
the Petitioner subject to availability of work, and the Respondents have not denied to provide any work to the
Petitioner as yet. When the same dispute has already been decided by another forum, the present case is barred
by the principles of res-judi-cata.
Thus, Point No.I is answered accordingly against the Petitioner.
9.
Point Nos.:II & III: Both the points are taken up together for convenient discussion as the same rise to
the same facts and laws involved. The Learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the Petitioner contended that the
Petitioner was initially engaged as a casual mazdoor from the month of September, 1986 to 15.7.1991 with
artificial breaks and thereafter his services were orally terminated without further engagement. He also
submitted that the Petitioner’s appointment was in the month of September, 1986 and he has worked for more
than 240 days in a year from the month of September, 1986 to 15.7.1991. But all of a sudden the Respondents
terminated him orally which is illegal and violative of the principles of natural justice. The Petitioner was not
served any notice nor paid any notice pay nor retrenchment compensation on his termination. The Respondents
are liable to pay the same. WW1 in his evidence has also supported the averments made by him in his chief
evidence affidavit. But in his cross examination WW1 has admitted that there is no document with him to show
that he has worked for 240 days continuously in a year. He further admitted that he has not mentioned the
names of the persons who have been engaged after the order of the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal, in
his claim statement. He also admitted that he has not been regularized in his post by the Respondents. The
admission of WW1 clearly indicates that there is no document with him to show that he has worked for 240
days continuously in a year. In his examination in chief WW1 has also admitted that he worked from
September, 1986 to 15.7.1991 with artificial breaks. The admission of the workman (WW1) clearly indicates
that he has not worked 240 days continuously in a year. Similarly, the Learned Counsel for the Respondents
contended that when the workman has not worked continuously 240 days in a calendar year, he is not entitled
either notice or notice pay before his termination, and the provision of Section 25 F of the Industrial Disputes
Act, 1947 is not applicable in the case of the present Petitioner. Similarly WW1 in his evidence has admitted
that the Petitioner was appointed as a casual mazdoor from the year 1986 -1991 with breaks. He denied the
suggestion of the Respondents that the Petitioner has worked for more than 240 days in a calendar year under
the Respondents. He also admitted that as the Respondents have not engaged no one since 1991, the workman
was not engaged. He further denied the suggestion of the Petitioner to the effect that the Respondents have
illegally terminated the service of the Petitioner without following the procedures contained in the Industrial
Disputes Act, 1947. In fact, the workman was engaged as a casual labour under the Respondents from the
month of September, 1986 till 15.7.1991 intermittently. He has not worked 240 days continuously in a year. He
has been terminated orally by the Respondents. The Respondents have agreed to carry out the order of the
Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal subject to availability of work. Since no work has been arisen, the
Respondents have not complied the order of the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal as yet. since the
workman has not worked continuously for more than 240 days in a year and has been terminated orally and the
Respondents have agreed to provide job as and when vacancy will arise, the termination of the Petitioner is not
illegal and the Petitioner is not entitled to get any other relief as sought for except the prayer for re-engagement
when there will be a vacancy. On consideration of the evidence adduced from both the sides it can safely be
held that the Petitioner is not entitled to get any relief as claimed for except the relief of re-engagement in
service.
Thus, Point Nos.II & III are answered accordingly.
10.
In view of the findings given in the above issues, it can safely be held that the Petitioner is only entitled
to get the relief which has already been given by the Hon’ble Central Administrative Tribunal and is not entitled
to get any other relief. Hence, the order.
ORDER
The management of the Respondents are directed to carry out the order of the Hon’ble Central
Administrative Tribunal passed in OA No.881/1995 which has already been communicated to them within a
period of four months subject to availability of work/vacancy.
Award is passed accordingly. Transmit.

AWARD
The Government of India in Ministry of Labour & Employment has referred the present dispute
existing between employer i.e. the management of Indian Institute of Technology, and its workman/claimant
herein, under clause (d) of sub section (1)and sub section (2A) of section 10 of the Industrial Dispute Act 1947
vide letter No. L-42011/103/2012 (IR(DU) dated 07.12.2012 to this tribunal for adjudication to the following
effect.
“Whether the action of the management of IIT Roorkee in not regularizing the workman Shri Kishan
Lal, S/o Shri Kishori Lal, Helper despite rendering service for more than 22 years continuously is
justified? If not, what relief the said workman is entitled to?’’
As per the claim statement the claimant was appointed as a Helper/ (Gate Keeper) in the erstwhile
University of Roorkee w.e.f November 1990. When he was working as such the name of the University of
Roorkee was changed to IIT Roorkee but the workman continued to work as such. Though, the workman was
repeatedly demanding regularization in service the management was not paying any heed to his request. After
serving for more than 22 years continuously he approached the Labour Commissioner by raising a dispute. A
conciliation proceeding was taken up. But the management did not agree to the proposal given by the conselator
and the conciliation since failed the appropriate government referred the matter to the tribunal for adjudication.
The management being noticed filed WS challenging the maintainability on the ground that IIT
Roorkee is not an industry but an Educational Institution. Moreover the claimant was engaged on 01.10.90 on
fixed term basis against a project and his employment was co-terminus with the project. However, his
engagement was extended from time to time to meet the exigency of work. He being a fixed term contractual
employee is not entitled to regularization. It has also been pleaded that the claimant and many persons in the
2392 THE GAZETTE OF INDIA : SEPTEMBER 12, 2020/BHADRA 21, 1942
[PART II—SEC. 3(ii)]
same footing through a union had raised dispute and went into agitation. For the intervention of the local
administration the management and the union entered into one MOU dated 22.11.1994 according to which one
Y-Pool of 361 workers was created and they were observed against regular vacancy on phased manner subject
to their minimum essential qualification and being found suitable by the selection committee. The present
workman could not qualify for regularization and as such he was not regularized though many persons from the
Y-Pool have been regularized against permanent posts. Thereby the management claimed for dismissal of the
claim petition.
On the rival pleading the parties agreed for adjudication of the matter as per the terms of reference.
When the matter came up for evidence the workman though filed an affidavit did not come up to tender the
affidavit evidence and to face the cross examination. The A/R for the claimant intimated on 17.10.2019 that the
claimant has expired and his legal heirs are not coming forward to peruse the matter. In view of the
circumstance the Ld. A/R for the management informed that no evidence will be adduced by the management.
Since, no evidence has been adduced by the claimant to substantiate his stand this tribunal is left with
no other option then to answer the reference in negative against the claimant and pass a no claim award. Hence,
ordered.
ORDER
The reference be and the same is answered against the claimant as he failed to substantiate the claim.
Send a copy of this award to the Appropriate Government for notification as required under section 17 of the ID
act 1947.
The reference is accordingly answered.

In the present case, a reference was received from the appropriate Government vide letter
No. L-42011/6/2019(IR(DU)) dated 18.02.2019 under clause (d) of sub-section (1) and sub-section (2A) of
Section 10 of the Act, for adjudication of a dispute, terms of which are as under:
“Whether the services of the workman Shri. Anuj Kumar s/o Shri Shyam Sunder Trivedi have been
terminated illegally and / or unjustifiably w.e.f 05.06.2017 by the management of M.s Tata
communication Ltd. and Walsons Sevices Ltd? If yes, to what relief is the concerned workman entitled
and what directions are necessary in this regard?”
2.
In the reference order, the appropriate Government commanded the parties raising the dispute to file
statement of claim, complete with relevant documents, list of reliance and witnesses with this Tribunal within 15
days of receipt of the reference order and to forward a copy of such statement of claim to the opposite parties
involved in the dispute. Despite directions so given, Claimant union opted not to file the claim statement with
the Tribunal.
3.
On receipt of the above reference, notice was sent to the workman as well as the managements.
Neither the postal article sent to the claimant, referred above, was received back nor was it observed by the
Tribunal that postal services remained unserved in the period, referred above. Therefore, every presumption lies
in favour of the fact that the above notice was served upon the claimant. Despite service of the notice, claimant
opted to abstain away from the proceedings. No claim statement was filed on his behalf. Thus, it is clear that
the workman is not interested in adjudication of the reference on merits.
4.
Since the workman has neither put in his appearance nor has he led any evidence so as to prove his
cause against the management, this Tribunal is left with no choice, except to pass a ‘No Dispute/Claim’ award.
Let this award be sent to the appropriate Government, as required under Section 17 of the Industrial Disputes

AWARD
The Government of India in Ministry of Labour & Employment has referred the present dispute
existing between employer i.e. the management of CPWD, Faridabad, and its workman/claimant herein, under
clause (d) of sub section (1)and sub section (2A) of section 10 of the Industrial Dispute Act 1947 vide letter
No. L-42012/30/1997 (IR(DU) dated 1.04.1998 to this tribunal for adjudication to the following effect.
“Whether the action of the management of CPWD, in terminating the service of Shri Ved Parkash-
Enquiry Clerk w.e.f 11.02.1996 is legal and justified? If not, to what relief the workman is entitled to?”
As per the claim statement the claimant Shri Ved Parkash had joined the service of the management as
Enquiry Clerk w.e.f 02.12.1992 and his initial place of posting was new Press Colony, Faridabad NIT. He was
then transferred to the office of NH No. IV and he worked there till 10.02.1996. His last drawn monthly salary
was Rs. 1200/- besides that salary he was never provided with other service benefits like leave encashment, over
time, etc. the workmen was often making demand of the same. Being annoyed the management stopped his
salary for the period 06.11.1995 to 10.02.1996. The claimant by a registered letter dated 19.02.1996 made a
complaint about the same. Instead of redressing his grievance the management terminated his service w.e.f
11.02.1996 without assigning any reason. During such termination no charge sheet was served on him nor any
domestic inquiry was conducted. The order of termination was arbitrary and amounts to unfair labour Practice
for violation of the provision of 25-F of the ID Act. The claimant had completed continuous work for more than
240 days for the management during the preceding calendar year of the date of his termination. Since then the
claimant is unemployed. Moreover, he is a physical handicapped person and finding no other way he had raised
a dispute before the Labour Commissioner where conciliation was taken up. But the management remained
[भाग II— ण् ड 3(ii)]
भारत का रािृत्र : जसतम् बर 12, 2020/भाद्र 21, 1942
2395
adamant and no desirous result could be achieved. The Appropriate Government then referred the matter to this
tribunal for adjudication.
The management by filing WS took a stand that the entire claim is false. There never existed any
relationship between the claimant and the management as the employee or employer. He might have been
engaged by some contractor to whom works were awarded at different times for the purpose of execution of the
said work. The allegation that he was appointed and transfer are all false. When the workman had raised a
dispute before the labour commissioner the management was called upon to submit a reply. During that period
the workman was served with a letter by the management asking him to produce documents like appointment
order, transfer order, pay slip, etc. The workman could not produce the same. While denying the allegation of
terminating the service of the workman the management has pleaded for dismissal of the claim.
On this rival pleading following points which are required to be determined are.
1.
If the proceeding is maintainable.
2.
If there exist any relationship of employer and employee between the management and the
workman.
3.
If the workman was illegally terminated from service and entitled to the relief prayed in the
claim.
The claimant examined himself as WW1and produce the documents which were marked in a series of
WW1/1 to WW1/5. These documents include the copy of the dispatch register, containing the name of the
workman and one copy of one attendance register. O behalf of the workman the copy of the demand notice has
also been filed. But the management has denied the copy of the attendance register and the dispatch register
though the admitted the demand notices. On behalf of the management one of its Executive Engineer Shri
Inderjeet Yadav testified as MW1 and he also proved certain documents which have been marked in a series of
MW1/1 to MW1/25. These documents include the copy of the contract awarded to different contractors the
payment made to the said contractors and the reply submitted to the demand notice of the claimant. Due to the
long absence of the claimant who was substituted by his legal heirs the witness could not be cross examined.
The deceased claimant in his claim statement has stated that he was working for the management w.e.f
02.12.1992 till 10.02.1996 and during this period he had completed 240 days of work in a calendar year. By
rendering such work he was deserving to be given a temporary status of employee in the management. But the
management without assigning any reason terminated his service illegally on 10.02.1996. He corroborated the
same by giving oral evidence. During his oral evidence the claimant stated that he was initially appointed at
New Press colony Faridabad NIT and then transferred to NH No. Office his monthly salary was Rs. 1200/-.
During cross examination when he was asked about appointment letter, transfer letter etc., he fumbled. At one
point of time he stated that the appointment letter and transfer letter though were received, he handed over the
same to the officers of the management. He again stated that J.E Mukesh Tiwari used to make payment office
salary. But could not produce any salary Slip etc. similarly when asked about the termination letter he failed to
produce any document. The only documents filed by him are some copies of the attendance register and the
dispatch register of the management. But the management has disputed the authenticity of the same since the
said copies do not bear the seal and signature of any of the officials of the management. Hence it is held that the
workman could not discharge the burden of proof to the effect that he was ever employed by the management,
working under the supervision and control of the management, receiving salary from the management and his
service was terminated by the said management. There being no evidence about termination of service by the
management the allegation of the claimant that his service was illegally terminated without following the
procedure of labour law seems unfounded. The claim advanced by the claimant is thus, answered in negative
against him. Hence, ordered.
ORDER
The claim be and the same is dismissed. Send a copy of this award to the Appropriate Government for
notification as required under section 17 of the ID act 1947.
The reference is accordingly answered.
