continued as it is and no workmen should

above demands.

(2)

If not, what relief the workers are entitled to?”

2. Upon receipt of the reference, it was

registered as IT/10/2020 and registered A/D notices

were issued to both the parties. Pursuant to service

of notices, Party I filed Claim Statement at

Exhibit 3.

3. In short, the case of the Party I is that the

Party I is a registered Trade Union registered under

the Trade Union’s Act with its registered address

at Mumbai, presently represents all the workmen

concerned in the present dispute. This Union has

formed a unit Committee of the workers of the

Sanofi India Limited (for short Goa Unit) which

represents the workmen on day to day matters,

issues and the grievances of the workmen. That

presently Mr. Ajay Phadte is the President,

Shri Shankar Pandit is the General Secretary,

Mr. Sandeep Gaonkar is the Vice-President,

Mr. Navindra Borkar is a Treasurer and Mr. Sunil

Kadam is the Joint Secretary of the Goa Unit and

the said Union represents about 70 permanent

workmen on the rolls of the Company. The said

Company M/s Sanofi India Limited is a limited

company incorporated under the Companies Act,

1956 having its registered office at Mumbai and

the Company presently employs about 230

permanent workmen at their Factory at Verna-Goa

which also employs workers on casual, daily basis,

temporary and contract workers to do the perenial

jobs which are done by the Party I workmen.

4. The Party I further stated that Party II is in

the business of manufacturing medicines for the

treatment of the patients in several therapeutic

areas such as diabetes, cardiology, consumer

health care, hospital, central nervous system,

anti-histamines, etc. The products manufactured

by the Company in India are sold in India as well

as exported to many developed as well as

developing countries and the Goa Plant includes

a brand--Global Development Centre which has

the capacity to develop solid dosage formulations

for the needs of Whintrop and the Asia-pacific

basebusiness. The Goa Unit belongs to the

Pharmaceurticals Intercontinental operational

unit. The Company employs a very large workforce

and there is increase in its business activities and

profits year to year and is financially very sound.

5. The Party I states that the said Company

started attempting to disrupt the unity of the

workmen from the time the new committee of the

Union was selected and from the time the

workmen joined the Party I Union and in the year

1998 the Party II had employed 21 Operators in the

manufacturing of the products on regular basis

and Party II had also employed seven Supervisors/

/Executives for supervising the work of the

Operators who were working under the Production

Manager. The Party II had employed casual/

/temporary workers, fixed term contracts and

through the Contractors who were doing regular

work, skilled and unskilled, entrusted to them and

such workers were given artificial breaks in order

to avoid making them regular though they were

doing regular jobs with the Party II and besides

these categories of employees, the Party II had no

other employees as Management Associates. It is

further stated that the Party II started the second

shift working from about 2000 for commissioning

new Plant I and recruited additional Operators on

temporary basis for manufacturing process. That

after starting the second shift, the total strenght of

regular Operators were about 32 and were rotated

in two shifts. The first shift was resheduled

as 8.00 a.m. to 4.30 p.m. and the second shift was

scheduled from 4.00 a.m. to 12 midnight. That in

the year 2007 the Plant I was expanded and

additional machines were installed to increase the

production and on expansion, the Party II employed

about 36 additional Operators including the

temporaries for the purpose of manufacturing and

in the year 2008 the Party II had employed about

60 Operators on regular basis for doing the regular

manufacturing processes in two shifts.

6. The Party I states that the Party II

commissioned Plant II in the year 2013 and is called

manufacturing II (for short Plant II). The Party I

states that the process of manufacturing in Plant

II is the same and that about seven Operators who

were working in Plant I were shifted to Plant II and

were doing the same jobs which were done in

Plant I. The Party I also states that the workmen of

the Party II had formed an Union under the name

Hoechst Marion Roussel Goa Plant Employees

Union and registered the same under the Trade

Unions Act, 1926 under No. 400 dated 08-03-2001.

The said Union had signed a settlement on the

Charter of Demands on 26-12-2001 which was

effective from 01-01-2001 to 30-06-2004. The

Operators thereafter joined the membership of the

Goa Trade and Commercial Workers‘ Union (AITUC)

in the year 2004 and had signed two settlements

dated 30-12-2005 and 24-12-2008 with Party II on

the Charter of Demands. The workmen resigned

from the said Union and joined the Goa Kamgar

Karmachari Sena and thereafter joined the Party I

Union.

7. The Party II on realising that the Operators

have joined the Party I Union, the Party II

discontinued employing the workers as Operators

and started employing the workers with the

designation as Management Associates with

higher benefits then what is paid to the regular

Operators though the nature of the work done by

the said Associates was the same as that of the

Operators. The Party I further states that in the

year 2012, the Party II started the 3rd shift from

12 midnight to 8.00 a.m. on the next date. Thus,

from the year 2012, the process of manufacturing

was continued in three shifts and was being

carried out by about 150 Operators, including

Operators designated as Management Associates,

employed on regular basis. The Party I states that

besides the regular Operators, the Party II has also

employed Operators, as casual, temporaries, Fixed

Term Contract and through Contractors to do the

same work which is done by the regular Operators.

8. The Party I further states that on account of

introduction of the third shift from 2012, the

Party II employed additional Operators with the

designation as “Management Associates”and the

said Management Associates are also working as

Operators with the regular Operators and are doing

the same work as is done by regular Operators and

that some of the Management Associates are

relievers of the Operators. The Party I states that

some of the Operators, who were members of the

Union and who had left the membership of the

Union, were re-designated as Management

Associates and were granted Special Allowance in

additional to their normal wage and thereafter

around the year 2013/14, they were promoted as

Supervisors/Officers and the Party II presently

employs about 230 Operators on regular basis

besides casuals, temporaries, Fixed Term Contracts

employees, etc.

9. The Party I states that the settlement dated

06-02-2018 entered into by the Union of the

workmen, came to an end and expired on

30-06-2017 and the Union then terminated the said

settlement and served fresh Charter of Demands

on the Management for better wages and service

conditions vide letter dated 16-03-2018 calling upon

the Management to negotiate a fresh settlement

for a period of 3 years commencing from 01-07-2017

to 30-06-2020. The Party I Union states that the

Management adopted an adamant stance of

delaying in negotations on the Union’s Charter

and revised the wages and special allowance of

the Associates who are not members of the Party I

Union thereby adopting unfair labour practices and

the Union having no other option, sought

intervention of the Dy. Labour Commissioner &

Conciliation Officer at Panaji. Even, after several

meetings with the Conciliation Officer, the Party II

stuck to its adamant attitude and refused to offer

any better terms of service in relation to the

workmen. However, in the meantime, the Party II

started harrasing and victimizing the Committee

Members as well as the other members of the Union

in various ways without any provocation from the

workmen. The Party II also started employing more

Operators in the name of Associates and started

giving them special allowance over and above their

wages. The Party I stated that the Party II kept

delaying the negotiations on the Charter of

Demands on flimsy grounds until 20-04-2019 when

the Conciliation Officer recorded a failure of

conciliation and submitted his failure report to the

Government and the matter was referred for

adjudication by the Hon’ble Tribunal of Goa, Panaji.

10. In the course of the proceedings, the parties

filed an application at Exh. 7 colly alongwith
