dismissing Shri Sagar Dhume, Management
Associate, with effect from 16-06-2015, is legal
and justified?
(2) If not, what relief the workman is entitled to?
2. On receipt of the reference, a case was
registered under No. LC-II/IT/35/2016 and registered
A/D notice was issued to the parties. In pursuance
to the said notice, the parties put in their
appearance. The Workman/Party-I (for short
‘Workman’), filed his Statement of Claim on
19-08-2016 at Exhibit-5. The facts of the case in
brief as pleaded by the Workman are that the
Employer/Party-II (for short ‘Employer’) is a
Multinational Pharmaceutical Company engaged
in the production of tablets at its factory at Verna
Industrial Estate, Salcette, Goa. He stated that the
Employer was initially established at Verna in the
year, 2001 as Wyeth Lederle Ltd. which was
subsequently changed as Pfizer Ltd. in the year,
2009. He stated that he was employed with the
Employer as “Operator-Production” since
18-03-2002. He stated that he has not received a
single memo or a single charge-sheet except the
charge-sheet which is the subject matter of the
present reference. He stated that during his service
with the Employer, he received awards from the
Employer for his performance. He stated that he
also received several “employee of the month”
awards, long service awards, best nominee of the
month awards, certificates for improving
productivity and development, etc. He stated that
after formation of a trade Union in 2014, all the
workers of the Employer Company joined the said
union. He stated that he was elected as an office
bearer of the said union and as such he was a
Protected Workman as per the provisions of the I.D.
Act, 1947. He stated that initially all workmen
including himself were employed as Operator–
-Production. He stated that in the year, 2006, the
designations of all workmen were changed to that
of management associates Grade MA-01 and in year
2011, the grade of workers were changed to MA-02
although the duties performed by them remained
the same. He stated that all the workmen of the
Employer including himself were issued
appointment letters when they joined and all of
them were confirmed in the service of the Employer.
3. He stated that in June, 2014, workers formed a
Trade Union for the first time, when all the workers of
the Employer factory became members of Gomantak
Mazdoor Sangh Trade Union. He stated that the
Employer was informed about the formation of the
Trade Union. He stated that names of seven Union
office bearers of the Union including himself were
also communicated to the Employer. He stated that
the Employer did not appreciate the decision of the
workers to form a Trade Union and started harassing
the workers by withdrawing existing benefits and
existing facilities. He stated that with effect from
20-04-2015, the Employer did not allot any work to
workers inside the factory and kept them idle as the
Employer was not happy with the workers forming a
Trade Union. He stated that with effect from
24-04-2015, all workmen were kept outside the
factory gates and were not allowed to resume work
inside the factory. He stated that this continued for
several months and later the Employer stated that
they would not allow the workmen to report for work
OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA
SERIES II No. 3
20TH APRIL, 2023
95
unless they gave an undertaking, the contents of
which were not disclosed to them. He stated that
later on, the Employer allowed all workmen to report
for work without undertaking and all workmen
reported for work with effect from 17-08-2015. He
stated that the Employer has till date not paid wages
of the workers from 20-4-2015 to 16-08-2015. He stated
that however, eleven workmen, who were issued
suspension orders pending enquiry, were not allowed
to report for work. He stated that meanwhile, after
formation of the Trade union, the Employer
suspended the services of all office bearers of the
Union namely, Ramdas Mayenkar, himself,
Krishnakant Gawas, Navin Gaude, Susen Jalmi, Suraj
Kurtikar and Suraj Salgaonkar.
4. He stated that all the aforesaid workers were
issued charge-sheets on trumped up and fabricated
charges. He stated that he himself and others replied
to the charge-sheets denying the allegations levelled
against them. He stated that the suspension of seven
union office bearers including himself was from
21-04-2015. He stated that four more workmen were
also suspended from service with effect from
23-04-2015 pending enquiry namely, Ankush
Gaonkar, Mangaldas Gaude, Umakant Chari, and
Samesh Naik. He stated that all eleven workmen
were suspended and were issued charge-sheets
based on false and fabricated charges. He stated
that as the workers were not happy with Gomantak
Mazdoor Sangh Union because of the developments
which took place which the workers least expected.
He stated that all the workers after holding a General
Body Meeting decided to resign from the said Union
and became the members of Kamgarancho Ekvott
Trade Union of which Shri Subhash Naik George is
the President with effect from 20-05-2015 after
resigning from Gomantak Mazdoor Sangh. He stated
that these developments were informed to the
Employer in writing. He stated that the said Union
Kamagarancho Ekvott raised several Industrial
Disputes with the Employer such as Charter of
Demands on behalf of the workers, illegal and
unjustified refusal of work with effect from 24-04-2015,
unfair labour practice, non-payment of bonus, illegal
termination of services of workmen and illegal
imposition of punishments to workers etc. He stated
that as the Employer did not accept the demands,
the union raised disputes before Dy. Labour
Commissioner who is also Conciliation Officer of
Government of Goa, where all industrial disputes are
pending conciliation and some disputes have been
referred to this Hon’ble Tribunal for adjudication.
5. He stated that although all seven union office
bearers including himself were issued separate
charge-sheets, the Employer decided to hold
common enquiry. He stated that Shri Prashant
Agarwal, Advocate, was appointed as an Enquiry
Officer to conduct the enquiries in respect of
charge-sheets issued to seven union office bearers.
He stated that Shri Prasanna Chawadikar, Advocate,
was appointed as Management Representative. He
stated that initially, Puti Gaonkar was the Defense
Representative on behalf of charge-sheeted workmen
and later on, Shri Subhash Naik George was
appointed as Defense Representative by himself and
other charge-sheeted workers. He stated that on
02-06-2015 a date was fixed by the Enquiry Officer
Mr. Agarwal to hold the enquiry. However, on that
day Ld. Enquiry Officer did not attend the enquiry at
the hearing fixed at Panaji-Goa. He stated that the
Management Representative, Shri Prasanna
Chawadikar who was present for the enquiry
informed that Ld. Enquiry Officer had gone to his
native place to bring his wife and he could not get
tickets to return to Goa due to vacation rush and
that he was still travelling in the train. He stated
that the Management Representative informed him
and all other charge-sheeted workmen as well as
Defense Representative that Ld. Enquiry Officer,
Mr. Agarwal had resigned from the post of Enquiry
Officer and that he would not come for the enquiry
for his personal reasons. He stated that Management
Representative informed that the next date of enquiry
would be communicated after the management
appointed a new Enquiry Officer. He stated that after
5th June, 2015, no communication either oral or
writing was received by him or his Defense
Representative about the date of enquiry or
appointment of a new Enquiry Officer.
6. He stated that after few months, the Employer
dismissed the service of the four union office bearers
with effect from 16-06-2015 claiming that they held
the enquiry against them and claiming that Enquiry
Officer held them guilty of the charges namely,
himself, Krishnakant Gawas, Navin Gaude, and Suraj
Salgaonkar. Aggrieved by the said blatantly illegal
and unjustified terminations, the Workman and three
other workmen raised an industrial disputes with
the Employer and later on with the Conciliation
Officer/Dy. Labour Commissioner which ended in
failure.
7. He contended that during the pendency of such
disputes as per provisions of Section 33 of the I. D.
Act, 1947, the Employer cannot terminate the services
of the workmen without prior permission or without
approval of action taken by them. He submitted that
the Employer, as an afterthought, terminated the
services of remaining three office bearers namely,
Ramdas Mayenkar, Susen Jalmi and Suraj Kurtikar
with effect from 23-12-2015. He submitted that with
96
OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA
SERIES II No. 3
20TH APRIL, 2023
these termination, Employer have terminated all
seven office bearers who were elected after formation
of Trade Union which clearly proves that this is a
clear case of victimization for trade union activities.
He submitted that since he himself, Susen Jalmi and
Suraj Kurtikar were protected workmen as per
provisions of I.D. Act, prior permission before
termination ought to have been obtained from this
Hon’ble Tribunal and/or Dy. Labour Commissioner,
failing which the termination are bad-in-law. He
submitted that the charge-sheet issued to him and
six other office bearers of the union and four other
union activist were fabricated and cooked up besides
being false. He submitted that the same were issued
to him and others to victimize them for their trade
union activities as they had formed a union for the
first time in the company. He submitted that Shailesh
Redkar, whom the Employer claims to have been
appointed as Enquiry Officer, was never appointed
as Enquiry Officer and no intimation to that effect
has been sent to him. He submitted that no
intimation of dates of enquiry by the said Enquiry
Officer if any, was sent to him. He submitted that the
records of enquiry proceedings alleged to have been
conducted by Shailesh Redkar have not been
supplied to him till date. He submitted that the
Employer, before terminating his service, has not
issued him a show cause notice enclosing copy of
the findings of the Enquiry Officer, if any, and records
of enquiry proceedings if any, seeking his views
before dismissal which is mandatory. He submitted
that no enquiry was held in respect of charges
levelled against him in the charge-sheet issued to
him. He submitted that copy of the findings of the
enquiry if any, were not supplied to him before
termination of his services. He submitted that since
the date of dismissal, he is unemployed and is
dependent on his family and friend on sustainance.
He submitted that his termination is illegal and
unjustified as he has been dismissed from service in
total violation of principles of natural justice. He
submitted that no opportunity of whatsoever, was
given to him to defend himself in the enquiry. He
submitted that the management witnesses were not
allowed to cross-examine by him. He submitted that
the charges levelled against him have not been
proved in a fair and impartial enquiry in accordance
with the principles of natural justice. He submitted
that his dismissal from services is malafide,
vindictive, and by way of victimization for trade
union activities, besides the same being
discriminatory. The workmen therefore, prayed that
he be reinstated in service with full back wages and
continuity of service with costs.
8. The Employer controverted the claim of the
Workman by filing its written statement on
02-12-2016 at Exb. 7. The Employer, as an by way of
its preliminary objections, submitted that the
reference is not maintainable and it ought to be
rejected as there is no “Industrial Dispute” as defined
under the I.D. Act, 1947, that the Workman has
accepted all the legal dues arising out of termination
in full and final settlement and hence, the Workman
is stopped from raising the present dispute, that there
is non application of mind by the Appropriate
Government while referring the present dispute and
that the present reference is therefore null and void.
9. The Employer stated that it is a Private Limited
Company incorporated under the provisions of the
Companies Act, 1956, having its registered office at
the Capital, 1802, 1901 Bandra Kurla Complex, Bandra
(East), Mumbai and the factory located at Verna
Industrial Estate, Verna, Salcette-Goa. The Employer
stated that it is engaged in the manufacturing of
pharmaceuticals at its factory located at Verna
Industrial Estate, Verna-Goa.
10. The Employer stated that the Workman was
issued a charge-sheet dated 07-05-2015 alleging as
under:
“It has been observed that from the month of
December, 2014, the workmen have deliberately and
willfully reduced production as a result of which the
Management suffered heavy losses. The fall in
production which commenced from the month of
December, 2014 gradually reached to a stage where
during the preceding week the production was
reduced to around 25% of the normal.
The management has consistently requested the
workmen to stop the unfair practice of lowering the
production and to restore normalcy. However, the
workmen continue with the unfair labour practice of
lowering the productive process.
Subsequent there to by Notice dated 7th February,
2015, letters dated 14th April, 2015 and various
communications, Management invited the attention
of the workmen to the fall in production and
requested the workmen to restore normalcy.
However, instead of restoring normalcy, to the utter
shock and surprise of the Management, the workmen
in a concerted manner stopped production from the
commencement of Second shift of 20th April, 2015
and started squatting within the factory premises.
As a consequence thereto the entire productive
process has come to a grinding halt. The
Management has suffered huge losses till date and
continues to do so. As you are aware, we are engaged
in the manufacturing of drugs which include
life-saving drugs like Wysolone, Folvite, Pacitane,
Overal-L etc.
All these products are listed in the National List
of Essential Medicines (NLEM), issued by Ministry

of Health, Government of India. Wysolone is a
life-saving steroidal drug with anti-inflammatory
properties and controls the painful symptoms of a
temporary autoimmune condition called Polymyalgia
Rheumatica (PMR), Folvite, essentially taken by
women during the first trimester of pregnancy for
development of the foetus and also used for all kinds
of anaemic conditions, Pacitane, drug used by
Patients suffering from early symptoms of Parkinson’s
Disease and Overal-L. You are fully aware that the
discontinuation due to non-availability of these
drugs can have an adverse effect on the patients and
the society at large.
We have received various communications from
our dealers, hospitals and doctors informing us of
the serious consequences arising as a result of drugs
not being available in the market and the suffering
of the patients, especially those who had already
been prescribed such drugs and consuming the same.
The consequence of sudden discontinuation of
supply to the patients has as expected adverse
consequences on the health of the patients.
You are an office bearer of Gomantak Mazdoor
Sangh, the Management has been consistently been
communicating with you and other workmen who
have been participating in the go slow/stoppage of
work to desist from the unfair labour practice of
reducing willfully and deliberately the production.
The fall in production is a consequence of your
instigation and incitement of the workmen to
commence and continue with the reduction of
production. It has also been observed that you have
been actively inducing the workmen to continue
with the go slow.
Further, on 23-3-2015, while you were in second
shift and operating cartonator. The machine was
under routine maintenance by service engineer who
gave the Ok report at 4.00 p.m. Machine setting was
done at the speed of 70 CPM and was handed over to
production. The machine was operational till 8.30
p.m. The speed was reduced to 60 CPM by our
engineer Mr. Raju Mane and minor issues were
resolved.
After the dinner break at 9.15 p.m. when the
machine was operational, you asked technician
Mr. Namdev Shinde, who was instructed by his
Manager to remain present near the machine and
observe the problem if any, to bring locktite for the
reasons best known to you. He requested to wait till
his engineer Mr. Raju comes as either of them was
instructed to be present in machine operation area,
however, you did not accept his request and insisted
on urgency on locktite.
Mr. Namdev Shinde left the area to bring locktite
and by the time he returned back, the machine was
non-operational and carton setting were found
disturbed and settings of the machines were
changed.
This adversely, affected the production in second
and third shift. During the oral discussion you have
not satisfactorily explained the reasons for which you
required locktite so urgently on the production line.
11. The participation in the willful go slow and
the instigation and incitement of the workmen to
initiate the go slow and continue, wilful damage to
or loss of employers good or properties as such
amounts to a serious misconduct under the Model
Standing Orders.
The Management therefore decided to conduct
an enquiry into the misconduct alleged against you.
You were suspended pending enquiry by suspension
order dated 21-04-2015.
Your above acts on your part constitute the
following Acts of Misconducts under the Model
Standing Orders:
a. Willful insubordination or disobedience,
whether alone or in combination with others,
to any lawful and reasonable order of a superior.
b. Willful damage to or loss of employer’s good or
property.
c. Habitual absence without leave or absence
without leave for more than 10 days.
d. Habitual breach of any law applicable to the

f.

g. Striking work or inciting others to strike work
in contravention of the provision of any law, or

12. The Employer stated that the workmen was
suspended pending enquiry. The Employer stated
that management conducted an enquiry into the
above said charges. The Employer stated that the
enquiry was conducted by Mr. Shailesh Redkar as
Enquiry Officer in an impartial manner and every
opportunity was given to the Workman to defend the
charges levelled against him and the Workman failed
to participate in the inquiry. The Employer stated
that the enquiry was therefore held ex-parte. The
Employer stated that Ld. Enquiry Officer submitted
his findings dated 13-6-2015 and after appreciating
the evidence on records held the workman guilty of
the charges levelled against him. The Employer
stated that they considered the proceedings of the
98

SERIES II No. 3
20TH APRIL, 2023
inquiry, the findings of the Enquiry Officer dated
13-6-2015 and concurred with the same. The
Employer stated that they considered the past
records and did not find any extenuating
circumstances for mitigation of punishment of
dismissal from its service. The Employer stated that
considering the gravity of proved misconducts, the
Workman was dismissed from its service vide letter
dated 16-6-2015. The Employer stated that a cheque
bearing No.101979 drawn on Deutsche Bank, Mumbai
for an amount of Rs.1,49,488/- (Rupees One lakh forty
nine thousand four eighty eight only) was sent to
the Workman at his home address by Registered A/D
in full and final settlement of all his dues and the
statement to that effect was sent through Registered
Post at his correspondence address on 10-7-2015 and
the same has been received by him. The Employer
stated that the workman was paid full and final
settlement of all his dues which includes basic pay,
P.L. encashment, House rent allowance, Conveyance
allowance, Medical allowance, LTA along with
gratuity. The Employer stated that the said amount
has been received by the Workman and has been
credited to his account on 29-9-2015. The Employer
stated that the workman has also collected all his
provident fund dues and for the purpose of
Employees Provident Fund and Miscellaneous
Provisions Act, 1952 is an excluded employee. The
Employer stated that since the Workman is
prosecuting this matter after having received the
benefits/full and final settlement of all legal dues
arising out of termination, it would be equitable to
direct the Workman to return the benefits so received
from Employer with 8.5% interest on the said money
for prosecuting the reference on merits on the
principle of “who seeks equity must do equity. The
Employer therefore prayed that the Workman be
directed to deposit the entire amount in the Court
and in the event the Workman fails to deposit the
amount within the period stipulated by this Hon’ble
Court, the defense of the Workman may be struck off
and the reference may be rejected or the Workman
may be stopped for agitating the present reference.
13. The Employer stated that by notice dated
20-4-2015, the management informed the employee
that their act of stoppage of work from the second
shift amounts to willful stoppage and gross
indiscipline. The Employer stated that the
management advised the employees to report for
work as per the shift schedule. The Employer stated
that however, the employees continued with the
stoppage and continued squatting within the factory
premises. The Employer stated that they, by notice
dated 21-4-2015, invited the attention of the
workmen in the third shift of 20th April, and first
shift of 21st April, 2015, to the wilful stoppage of work
and again advised them to report for work. The
Employer stated that however, they failed to report
for duty and continued to squat within the factory
premises. The Employer stated that the management
also decided to issue charge-sheets to some of the
Employees for the misconducts committed by them.
The Employer stated that in view of the seriousness
of the misconducts alleged against them and in the
interest of conducting a proper inquiry, and to avoid
any interference with such inquiry, the management
decided to suspend them pending inquiry and formal
charge-sheets. The Employer stated that the said
workmen suspended pending inquiry vide letter of
suspension dated 21-4-2015. The Employer stated
that in the letter of suspension, the management
informed the workmen that the management has
decided to institute an inquiry into the acts of
misconduct alleged against them. The Employers
stated that as the employees continued with the
work stoppage and failed to report for work and on
the contrary were sitting within the factory premises,

the attention of General Secretary of the union Mr.
Puti Gaonkar to the stoppage of work by the
employees from 20-4-2015 and to the notices
displayed on its notice board requesting the striking
employees to report for work. The Employer stated
that in the said letter, the management informed the

stated that the said letter was also displayed on its
notice board. The Employer stated that at the copy
of the said undertaking that the workmen was
required to sign was also displayed on its notice
board and copies of the same were placed at the
security gate. The Employer stated that on and from
commencement of general shifts of 24-4-2015, the
employees who had reported at the security gate
were advised to sign the undertaking. The Employer
stated that however, they refused to do so and
squatted outside the factory premises in front of the
security cabin from where all the employees enter
inside the factory premises thereby, causing
inconvenience to the employees who report for duty.
The Employer stated that the action of the employees
of stoppage of work from 28-4-2015 is a concerted
manner and continuing such stoppage amounts to a
strike which is illegal and unjustified.
14. The Employer started that by notice dated
27-4-2015 displayed on 27-4-2015, the management

the undertakings which they declining to submit to
the management giving an assurance of restoration
of normalcy. The Employer stated that by the said
notice they were informed not to sit at the security
gate as squatting outside the security gate is illegal
and causes inconvenience and as well as atmosphere
of fear and threat in the mind of managerial and other
employees as well as the customers, welders who
are entering the factory premises. The Employer
stated that the employees were therefore advised
not to squat near the factory gate and to stay away
from the said place. The Employer stated that as the
workmen continued to commit illegalities, the
management filed a suit for permanent as well as
temporary injunction on 27-4-2015. The Employer
stated the Hon’ble Court after hearing them passed
order stating that the dependent union and its
members only those who are employed with them,
their agents, friends, relatives and representatives
are restrained from squatting within a radius of 200
meters from its factory premises at Verna, Salcette,
Goa and from blocking the entrance thereof and/or
preventing egress and ingress there from the other
staff and employees, customers, goods, vehicles, raw

workmen to report for work in their shift as per their
regular shift. The Employer stated that on 16-7-2015
four employees who were members of “Kamgarancho
Ekvott” resumed the duty. The Employer stated that
thereafter, one more appeal was sent to the workmen
on 11-08-2015 wherein, reference was given of the
appeal of 23-06-2016, 3-07-2015, and 31-07-2015 to
report for work in the shift and the shift schedule
was annexed thereto. The Employer stated that
finally on 17-08-2015 the remaining workers resumed
duties.
15. The Employer submitted that the Ld. Enquiry
Officer followed the principles of natural justice and
granted every conceivable opportunities to the
workmen to be present and failed to participate in
the enquiry and therefore Ld. Enquiry Officer had no
option but to conduct the inquiry ex-parte. The
Employer submitted that Ld. Enquiry Officer on the
basis of the evidence on record submitted a reasoned
findings holding the Workman guilty of the charges
levelled against him. The Employer submitted that
the management considered the findings of the
Enquiry Officer, concurred with the same and

Workman. The Employer denies the case of the
