Opponent/Party II represented by Adv. P. Chawdikar.

AWARD

(Delivered on this the 25th day of the month of

March of the year 2021)

This is an application filed by the Applicant/

/Party I under Section 2-A read with Section 25-T

of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (for short, The

Act).

2. In short, the case of the Party I is that he is a

workman of Party II who is involved with the

business of providing and supplying labourers/

/workers to various Companies in the State of Goa.

The Party I was deputed by Party II in the company

known as M/s. Nestle India Ltd., having its factory

at Maulinguem, Bicholim. The Party I was working

as a Helper in the said Nestle Company from the

date of deputation till the date of suspension and

OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA

SERIES II No. 4

22ND APRIL, 2021

had worked for almost 8 years diligently, sincerely

and honestly in the interest of Party II and said

Nestle Company. The Party I had never been issued

with any charge-sheet nor any memo during his

tenure of service. The Party I was issued a charge-

-sheet cum suspension order cum Notice of Inquiry

dated 23-08-2013 for the first time by Party II on

false allegation that he committed acts of

misconduct contemplated under Service Rules

applicable to Party I and was further placed under

suspension with immediate effect.

3. An Enquiry Officer was appointed to hold the

enquiry in the said charges and it took about almost

two years to complete the enquiry before the

Enquiry Officer. The Party I participated in the said

Enquiry and the Enquiry Officer on 07-11-2015

submitted his Enquiry Report to Party II giving his

findings. The Party II thereafter issued a show cause

notice dated 14-11-2015 to Party I calling upon him

to file a reply and upon receipt of the show cause

notice and the enquiry report in November, 2015,

the Party I submitted his reply to Party II and

notwithstanding the receipt of the reply, the

Party II till date has not passed any order in the

disciplinary proceedings initiated against Party I

and also stopped paying subsistence allowance.

The Party I was forced to write a letter dated

02-03-2016 calling upon Party II to pay the

subsistence allowance and only when the Labour

Commissioner questioned Party II about

non-payment, the Party II paid arrears of

subsistence allowance. The enquiry proceedings

initiated against Party I has been concluded long

back in the year 2015, however till date, the

Party II has not passed any order in the said

enquiry.

4. The Party II deliberately and intentionally

delayed passing of the order in the said disciplinary

proceedings as Party II is well aware that there is

absolutely no material to dismiss Party I from the

service. The present enquiry initiated against

Party I is as a result of participation of Party I in the

formation of Trade Union of contract workers in the

Nestle India Company of which he is the President.

The Party II was always against the formation of

the Trade Union by the contract workers. The

withholding of the passing of the final order, as

also keeping the Party I under suspension without

any reason is against the provision of Service Rules

in the matter of domestic inquiry. The Party I is

unemployed since the date of suspension and does

not have any source of income. The act of Party II

in not pursuing the matter amounts to harassment,

victimization and causing great prejudice to

Party I mentally as well as physically. It is well

settled principle of law that an enquiry has to be

conducted in due compliance of principles of

natural justice, good conscience and equity and

the proceedings have to be concluded

expeditiously without unnecessary delay within

reasonable time. The Party I therefore has no other

remedy then to approach the Tribunal for

necessary reliefs, hence, the application.

5. The Opponent/Party II filed a Written

Statement inter-alia contending that the present

application cannot be construed as an industrial

dispute as defined under Section 2(k) of the Act.

The present application is pre-mature and

therefore not maintainable. The Inquiry Officer

appointed by Party II afforded fullest opportunity

to both the Parties in the interest of justice and fair

play. The Party I is regularly getting his subsistence

allowance till date. No order was passed as the

matter was under discussion for amicable

settlement before the Labour Commissioner which

is still pending for discussion. The Party I is not

entitled for any relief.

6. The Party I filed a Rejoinder at Exhibit 8

denying the case put forth by Party II in the written

statement.

7. Issues framed at Exhibit 9 are as follows:

Whether the Party I proves that no orders

have been passed by the Party II till date

concluding the disciplinary proceedings

against Party I, thereby vitiating the entire

enquiry proceedings?

Whether the Party I proves that there exists

‘Industrial Dispute’ between the Parties in

terms of Section 2(k) of the Industrial

Disputes Act, 1947?

What relief? What Award?

8. In the course of evidence, the Party I,

Shri Anand Shirodkar examined himself and

produced on record his Affidavit-in-Evidence at

Exh. 13, a copy of charge-sheet cum suspension

order cum notice of enquiry dated 23-08-2013 at

Exh. 14, a copy of enquiry report dated 07-11-2015

14-11-2015 at Exh. 16, a copy of reply dated

Nov., 2015 filed by the Party I at Exh. 17, letter

dated 02-03-2016 for non-receipt of subsistence

allowance at Exh.18, a copy of application/

/complaint dated 04-08-2016 at Exh. 19, a copy of

minutes of the meeting dated 19-11-2015 at

Exh. 20, a copy of certificate of Registration of Trade

Union dated 13-02-2013 along with Schedule-1 at

Exh. 21. The Party II did not lead any evidence.

9. Heard arguments. Notes of written arguments

came to be placed on record by the parties.

10. I have gone through the records of the case

and have duly considered the submissions made

by the learned advocates for Parties. My findings

on the above issues are as follows:

Issue No. 1

…

In the Affirmative.

Issue No. 2

…

In the Affirmative.

Issue No. 6

…

As per Final Order.

REASONS

Issue No. 1:

11. Learned Advocate Tarzan De Costa has

submitted that the Management has not issued

any Memo nor given any complaint against

Party I during his tenure of last 8 years of service.

The Party II and other contractors were never in

favour of Trade Union of contract workers. The

Party I was the President of Nestle Contract

Workers’ Union. The Party II suddenly issued a

charge-sheet cum suspension order cum notice of

inquiry dated 23-08-2013 to Party I for committing

alleged offences in the factory premises of

M/s. Nestle India Ltd. and during the inquiry

proceeding subsistence allowance was paid. The

Inquiry Officer concluded the domestic inquiry and

submitted his report and findings to Party II on

07-11-2015 however, the Party II did not pass any

orders till date on the said report and findings and

instead Party II continued to pay subsistence

allowance to Party I even though subsistence

allowances should only be paid during the inquiry

proceedings u/s 10-A of the Industrial Employment

(Standing Orders) Act, 1946. The Party I has been

illegally kept under indefinite suspension and has

also not been re-instated in service and paid wages.

The Party I is deprived of alternate employment

and is victimized by Party II. He further submitted

that the employee cannot be kept under suspension

indefinitely forever and in support thereof, he relied

upon the cases of (i) Ch. Sri Lakshmi v/s Executive

Officer, Sri Durga, 2002 (4) ALD 761 and

(ii) Venugopal Reddy K. v/s Managing Director,

Nizam Sugars, (2003) ILLJ 278 AP.

12. Per contra, Learned Advocate P. Chawdikar

for the Party II has submitted that the Party I has

been paid subsistence allowances till date and

that no order was passed in his matter as the matter

was under discussion for amicable settlement

before the Commissioner of Labour which was duly

attended by Party I, his representative as well as

representative of Party II. There were discussions

for amicable settlement going on between Party II

before the Commissioner of Labour. The Party II

has not terminated the services of Party I and had

continued paying the subsistence allowance. The

Party I in haste and without following due process

of law has filed the present application before the

Court which is premature, non-maintainable and

deserves to be rejected.

13. Admittedly, the Party I was issued a charge-

-sheet cum suspension order cum notice of inquiry

dated 23-08-2013 for allegedly committing offences

and misconducts in the factory premises of

M/s. Nestle India Ltd. and thereafter the Party II

conducted a domestic inquiry through Inquiry

Officer who submitted his report and findings to

Party II on 07-11-2015. There is no dispute that

Party II did not pass any order till date on the said

report and the findings. The Party I in the cross

examination has admitted that the issue of charter

of demands filed by their Union was pending before

the Labour Commissioner. However, the contention

of Learned Advocate Chawdikar for Party II that

the matter was under discussion for amicable

settlement before the Labour Commissioner is

dehors record nor it can be a justification for not

passing any order on the report and the findings

of the Inquiry Officer.

14. The case of Party II that they were paying

the subsistence allowances till date also cannot

be a ground for not passing the order on the report/

/findings, more particularly when the subsistence

allowance should only be paid during the inquiry

proceedings u/s 10-A of the Industrial Employment

(Standing Orders) Act, 1946. Moreover, under the

Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Central

Rules,1946, it is the duty of Party II to pass an order

after receiving the report and findings of the inquiry

proceedings. It is also enjoined upon the Party I

under Rule 14(4)(bc) of the Industrial Employment

(Standing Orders) Central Rules, 1946, the inquiry

proceedings shall be completed within a period of

three months, however in the present case, the

inquiry proceedings took more than two years to

complete. It is also under Rule 14(4)(c) of the

Industrial Employment( Standing Orders) Central

Rules, after the conclusion of the inquiry, the

Employer shall pass an order accordingly. No such

order has been passed by the Party II till date. The

Party I has been illegally kept under indefinite

suspension and has also been deprived of alternate

employment as he is under suspension. It is also

well settled in the case of Sri Lakshmi, supra that

an employee cannot be kept under suspension

indefinitely forever. It is also well settled that if

the inquiry could not be completed for any reason,

the employee cannot be kept under suspension ad

infinitum. It is therefore the action of Party II of not

OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA

SERIES II No. 4

22ND APRIL, 2021

passing any order after concluding the disciplinary

proceedings against Party I is bad-in-law and ab

initio void thereby vitiating the entire inquiry

proceedings. The Party I having proved the above

issue, the same is answered in the affirmative.

Issue No. 2:

15. Learned Advocate Shri P. Chawdikar has

submitted that the present matter is not an

industrial dispute as it does not fall within the

ambit of Section 2(k) of the Industrial Disputes Act

and that the present dispute has to be rejected as

the same is premature and filed without following

due process of law. He further submitted that

Section 2-A and Section 2-T of the Industrial

Disputes Act are not applicable as the Employer

has not discharged, dismissed, retrenched or

otherwise terminated the services of the Party I

workman nor the Party II has committed unfair

labour practices. The Party I is still on the rolls of

Party II as his services are not terminated till date

and therefore present dispute is not maintainable.

16. Per contra, Learned Advocate T. De Costa

has submitted and rightly so that the Party I had

raised an industrial dispute u/s 2(k) of Industrial

Disputes Act before the Commissioner of Labour

on 04-08-2016 and since no settlement took place

on the dispute raised before the Conciliation

Officer, the Party I preferred the present application

for breach of the Industrial Employment (Standing

Orders) Act, 1946 as the Party II does not have

certified standing orders of its own. The Party II

has not completed the proceedings within a period

of three months nor passed an order on the enquiry

report and findings and therefore, the Tribunal has

jurisdiction to decide upon the rules of discipline

under item No. 8 of the Third Schedule of Industrial

Disputes Act as also under unfair labour practices

as stipulated under the Fifth Schedule of the Act.

Industrial Disputes under Section 2(k) of the Act

means ‘any dispute or difference between

employers and employers, or between employers

and workmen, or between workmen and workmen,

which is connected with the employment or

non-employment or the terms of employment or

with the conditions of labour, of any person. The

Party II has illegally kept Party I under indefinite

suspension and has not been re-instated in service

nor paid his wages after the conclusion of the

inquiry and the findings of the Inquiry Officer nor

passed any orders on the said findings thus

depriving the Party I of alternate employment and

awarding him undue punishment.

17. The Party I therefore has rightly filed the

application before the Tribunal under Section 2(k)

of the Act as the Industrial Tribunal has powers to

interpret and adjudicate upon the Industrial

Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946 and also

on matters covered by Standing Orders. The

jurisdiction of the Industrial Tribunal under the

Act to adjudicate upon the matters covered by the

Standing Orders, has not been, in any manner,

abridged or taken away and it is always open for

the Union to raise an ‘Industrial Dispute’ as that

expression is defined in Section 2(k) of the Act and

if the dispute is raised for adjudication, the

Industrial Tribunal will have jurisdiction to

adjudicate, upon the same. The Standing Orders

by itself gives a right and a remedy to the

individual workman to get his grievance

adjudicated before the Industrial Tribunal as held

in the case of Management of the Bangalore

Woolen, Cotton and Silk Mills Co. Ltd. v Workmen

and Another, AIR 1968 SC 585 and therefore the

submission of Learned Advocate P. Chawdikar for

Party II that there does not exist industrial dispute

between the Parties in terms of Section 2(k) of the

Industrial Disputes Act cannot be accepted having

any merits. It is therefore the above issue is

answered in the affirmative.

Issue No. 3:

18. The Applicant/Party I has proved that the

entire inquiry proceeding is vitiated as no orders

have been passed by Party II on the inquiry

proceeding even after the findings were given by

the Inquiry Officer. The Party I has been kept

illegally under indefinite suspension which is not

justified thus violating provisions of the Third and

the Fifth Schedule of Industrial Disputes Act which

protects the workman against victimization and

contravention of the rules of discipline. The

suspension of Party I by Party II is therefore non-est

and hence, Party I is deemed to have been in

regular employment with Party II and therefore,

the Party I is entitled for the reliefs prayed for

including reinstatement in service, back wages and

continuity in service. It is therefore above issue is

answered accordingly.

19. In the result, I pass the following:

ORDER

i. The application filed by Party I workman

stands allowed.

ii. It is hereby held that the suspension order

passed by Party II against Party I is bad in

law, illegal and non-est.

iii. The Party II is directed to reinstate Party I

in the service with full back wages from

the date of suspension till reinstatement,

except the amount already paid by way of

subsistence allowance and continuity in

service.

iv. The Party II is directed to deposit back

wages before the Tribunal as stated above

within 60 days of the publication of the

Award, failing which the Party II shall pay

an interest @ 9% per annum.

v. Inform the Government accordingly.
