AWARD
(Delivered on this the 12th day of the month of January of the year 2024)
By Order dated 04-09-2015, bearing reference No. 28/45/2015-Lab/845, the Government of Goa in exercise of powers conferred by Section 10(1)(d) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 (for short 'The Act'), has referred the following dispute to this Tribunal for adjudication:-
"(1) Whether the action of the Management of M/s GKB Hi-Tech Lenses Private Limited, 50, Tivim Industrial Estate, Karaswada, Mapusa, Goa, in refusing employment to Shri Yeshwant Kudav, Shri Sanjay Shetye, Shri Santosh Gawas and Shri Dinesh Tulaskar, Junior Operators with effect from 11-3-2015, is legal and justified?
(2) If not, what relief each of the workmen are
entitled to?"
2. It came to be registered as reference No. IT/
/02/2016 and notices were issued to the Parties.
3. The Workmen (Party I) have filed their Statement of Claim. The Employer (Party II) has filed its Written Statement. The Workmen (Party I) have filed their Rejoinder to the Written Statement.
4. The case of the Workmen (Party I) in their Statement of Claim is that the workmen unionized themselves under the "Goa Trade and Commercial Workers' Union". That thereafter, the Employer (Party II) started harassing and victimizing the members of the Union. Shri Yeshwant Kudav, Shri Sanjay Shetye, Shri Santosh Gawas and Shri Dinesh Tulaskar were working as Junior Operators for the Employer (Party II). That they were members of the Union. That on 11-03-2015, these workmen were not allowed to punch their Attendance Cards by the General Manager-HR. That, the General Manager- HR told these workmen that their services stood terminated. That, the Workmen (Party I) raised an industrial dispute before the Assistant Labour Commissioner, Mapusa.
That the conciliation proceedings ended in failure. Therefore, it is prayed that the refusal of employment of Shri Yeshwant Kudav, Shri Sanjay Shetye, Shri Santosh Gawas and Shri Dinesh Tulaskar with effect from 11-03-2015 be held to be illegal, unjustified and bad-in-law. That, they be reinstated back in service with full back wages and continuity in service at the Employer's Factory at Karaswada, Mapusa-Goa.
5. The case of the Employer (Party II) is that by letters of promotion dated 10-03-2015, Shri Yeshwant Kudav, Shri Sanjay Shetye, Shri Santosh Gawas and Shri Dinesh Tulaskar were promoted as "Supervisors Production" and were transferred to Cochin, Hyderabad, Chennai and Guwahati respectively with effect from 24-03-2015. That, Party I are not workmen. That, they did not report to duty at the places to which they were transferred. That, Yeshwant Kudav has resigned by letter dated 10-06-2016. That the Employer/Party II has accepted the resignation and has paid him Rs. 13,132/- by way of Cheque as full and final settlement. That, show-cause notices dated 06-04-2015 and 09-04-2015 were issued to the other three workmen for non-compliance with promotion and posting orders. That, by letter dated 13-04-2015, these three OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES II No. 44 1ST FEBRUARY, 2024 workers were informed that they would not be paid from 24-03-2015 on account of "no work, no pay". It is denied that the Employer/Party II harassed and victimized the unionized workmen. It is denied that the Party I are presently unemployed. Therefore, it is prayed that the prayers of the Party I be rejected.
6. In their Rejoinder to the Written Statement, the Workmen/Party I have denied that by letters dated 10-03-2015, Shri Yeshwant Kudav, Shri Sanjay Shetye, Shri Santosh Gawas and Shri Dinesh Tulaskar were promoted as Supervisors-Production. That they had not accepted such letters of promotion. That the question of them being transferred to Cochin, Hyderabad, Chennai and Guwahati respectively does not arise. It is denied that Yeshwant Kudav submitted his resignation and accepted Rs. 13,132/- by way of Cheque as his full and final settlement. It is denied that for the other three workmen, the Employer/Party II had issued notices for non- compliance of posting and promotion orders. Therefore, it is prayed that the reliefs prayed for in the Statement of Claim be granted.
7. During the course of proceeding, all Parties except Yeshwant Kudav filed the terms of settlement. A Part Award dated 30-11-2023 was passed in disposing of the disputes between all the Parties except Yeshwant Kudav and Party II.
8. The dispute between Yeshwant Kudav and
Party II was put to trial.
9. The following issues were framed and my
findings thereon are as follows:
Issue No. Issues Findings
1 2
3
1. Whether the Party I proves In the
that they are 'workmen' negative. as defined under Section 2(s) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947?
2. Whether the Party I proves In the
that the the action of Party II negative. in refusing their employment w.e.f. 11-03-2015 is illegal and unjustified?
3. Whether the Party I proves In the
that they are entitled to negative. reinstatement in services with full back wages and continuity in services with all other consequential benefits?
4. What Relief?/What Order? As per the final order.
REASONS
10. Issue No. 1, 2 and 3: The case of Yeshwant
Kudav is that he is a 'workman'. It is his case that
he was refused employment w.e.f. 11-03-2015 in an
illegal and unjustified manner. That, he is entltled
to reinstatement with continuity in service, full
back wages and with all other consequential
benefits.
11. Yeshwant Kudav and Party II have not
adduced any evidence.
12. Therefore, Yeshwant Kudav has failed to prove
that he is a 'workman'. He has failed to prove that
the action of Party II in refusing him employment
w.e.f. 11-03-2015 is illegal and unjustified. Yeshwant
Kudav has also failed to prove that he is entitled to
reinstatement in service, with continuity of service,
full back wages and other consequential benefits.
13. As seen above, all other workmen have settled
their dispute with Party II.
14. For the reasons stated above, I hold issues
No. 1, 2 and 3 in the negative.
Hence, I pass the following:-
ORDER
(i) The claim of Yeshwant Kudav is disallowed.
(ii) No orders as to cost.
(iii) Inform the Government accordingly.

The Workmen/Party I states that in the month of June, 2016, they joined a Union, namely, Gomantak Mazdoor Sangh and the dispute of illegal termination was raised before the Deputy Labour Commissioner, Margao. That, conciliation proceedings ended in failure due to the adamant attitude of the Employer/Party II. Therefore, it is prayed that it be declared that Party I are workmen as defined under Section 2(s) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. That it be declared that the termination of Party I is illegal, improper and unjustified. That the Employer/Party II be directed to pay the workmen/Party I ex-gratia at the rate of 55 days pay per year of service in addition to retrenchment compensation and other legal dues and cost and any other relief.

That once the purchase general vouchers and bank vouchers are punched in the computer system, it automatically generates the general ledger and there is no need of writing the general ledger separately. That bank reconciliation is a supervisory/managerial job. That, statutory payments are done online and only executives are given access to the username and password to do the payments.
12. That, Yatin Chodnekar being an Executive/ /Manager was covered under the superannuation scheme and was receiving other benefits which are otherwise applicable to Executives/Managers.

That, Vincent Miranda used to sign store requisitions. That he was recommending/ /sanctioning leave of the staff working under his control and supervision. That he used to put remarks on the Leave Cards of the staff. It is denied that Vincent Miranda was re-designated as Manager to prevent him from being the president of the Union.
16. That, because Mr. Vincent Miranda was an Executive/Manager, he was paid two months' notice pay, leave salary, ex-gratia for two months for the years 2015-16 and 2016-17. That, he was also paid a gratuity amount. That, he was also paid the benefits under the superannuation scheme.

It is denied that Party I were working in managerial category and were getting the benefits of the managerial categories. It is denied that they were sanctioning/ recommending the leave of their subordinate staff.

It is stated that the Superannuation Benefit Scheme has nothing to do with the termination of services of Party I. That, meals in executive dining room, extras through refreshment slips and group mediclaim facility has nothing to do with the termination of services of Party I. That, the actions of Party II are malafide, illegal and unjustified and bad in law.
19. Heard arguments. The Union Representative Mr. P. Gaonkar and the Learned Advocate for Party II, Mr. M. S. Bandodkar have filed their written arguments.

He admits that Stores Requisition were approved by him. He admits that Dy. Accounts Manager is second in command in the Accounts Department. He admits that he left the Union once he became an Accounts Supervisor and thereafter at no point of time joined it. He admits that there is lot of difference in the pay scale of Accounts Assistant to Dy. Accounts Manager. He admits that after his promotion from Accounts Assistant onwards, he was getting the benefits of managerial staff.
36. Mr. Yatin Chodnekar (Witness 1 for Party I) admits that the refreshment slips (Exhibit 37D) were approved by him. He admits the Petrol Slips (Exhibit 38D and 48D Colly) duly approved by him. He admits leave applications of his staff (Exhibit 39D Colly) duly sanctioned by him. He admits Petty Cash Disbursement (Exhibit 40D Colly and Exhibit 44D) duly approved by him.

By letter dated 01-01-1988, Yatin Chodnekar was re-designated as Accounts Supervisor. Yatin Chodnekar admits the genuineness of this letter.
37. Exhibit 52D is Board Resolution dated 01-12-1999 authorizing Yatin Codnekar to sign and operate Bank Accounts. By Board Resolution dated 06-02-2001 (Exhibit 53 D), Yatin Chodnekar was authorized to represent Party II (1) in a Suit filed against M/s Nehshaft Systems. By Board Resolution dated 11-08-2001 (Exhibit 54D) Yatin Chodnekar was authorized to operate accounts with the State Bank of India and Saraswat Co-operative Bank, Margao.

38. Exh. 66 is the job description of Yatin

1. To assist the Chief Accountant in the management of the accounting functions.
2. To assist and check the working of the Wage

OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES II No. 44 1ST FEBRUARY, 2024In addition to the above mentioned duties and job functions, any other assignment given occasionally or on a daily basis by the immediate superior for the Management.
39. The admissions by Yatin Chodnekar in his testimony shows that he was responsible for the Accounts Department when he was promoted as Assistant Manager-Accounts and that at the relevant time he was reporting to Deputy General Manager. From December, 1999, he was controlling the Food and Beverages and the Stores. He admits that he was entitled to executive dining, mediclaim, insurance cover, LTA, conveyance reimbursement, ex-gratia and order refreshments for himself. As Dy. Accounts Manager, he was second in command in the Accounts Department. He left the Union after he became the Accounts Supervisor. He used to sign petrol slips, leave applications, Purchase Journal Vouchers, approve store room requisitions, sign petrol slips, operate bank accounts along with others. He was authorized to represent Party II (1) in a Suit. He was also instructing the Company's advocates to take action against persons defaulting in payment of outstanding amounts. He was also playing a role in settling outstanding amount with the Company. He had also signed an application to renew the registration of establishment.
40. The job description shows that he was to continually check the accounts payable and see that no outstanding bills are kept pending, make efforts for speedy collection of bills, check the working and reports of night auditors and Income Accountants, inform Chief Accountant about possible doubts in accounts, assist the Chief Accountant in carrying out inventory checks, check the salary, wage bill and statements, payroll taxes and employees' benefits, deposit taxes and Provident Fund Deductions, to assist in the preparation of financial statements, income statements, forecasts, budgets etc. to deputize for the Chief Accountant in his absence or wherever required to do so and to attend departmental meetings and in the absence of the Chief Accountant to attend the General Manager's meetings.
41. Exhibit 60-D is a letter dated 13-12-2007. In the said letter, it is stated that the job entrusted to Yatin Chodnekar involves cer tain "jobs of supervising various functions of controls carried by subordinates". It is stated therein that Yatin Chodnekar had failed in his supervisory functions with respect to a bill.
42. All this shows that Yatin Chodnekar was predominantly discharging supervisory, administrative and managerial functions. His salary is more than Rs. 10,000/-. Therefore he is not a 'workman'.
43. There is no evidence to show that Vincent
Miranda is a 'workman'.
44. Therefore, Yatin Chodnekar and Vincent Miranda are not 'workmen'. The other workmen have compromised the case. Hence, I hold issue No. 1 in the negative.
45. Issue No 2: The case of Party I is that the action of Party II in terminating their services w. e. f. 07-06-2016 is illegal and unjustified.
46. As seen above, Jose Francisco Moraes, Mr. Savio Dias, Ms. Candida D'costa and Ms. Diana Almeida have settled this case with their Employer. This case has been contested only by Yatin Chodnekar and Vincent Miranda. It has been proved that they are not workmen. Therefore, the termination of their services w. e. f. 07-06-2016 cannot be held illegal and unjustified under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. Hence, I hold issue No. 2 in the negative.
47. The Union Representative, Shri P. Gaonkar has relied upon the following case-laws to show that Yatin Chodnekar is workman:-
1. Sanjeev Kumar Gupta v/s Presiding Officer,
Labour Court (II) Faridabad & Anr. 2001 (I) L.L.N. 447 wherein the Hon'ble Punjab & Haryana High Court has held that an accounts executive could be the workman under Section 2(s) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947.
2. Management of Christian Medical College and Hospital, Vellore v/s Presiding Officer, Labour Court, Vellore & Anr. 2003 (2) L. L. N 21 wherein it was held by the Hon'ble Madras High Court that an account officer could be a workman under Section 2 (s) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947.
3. Gwalior Investment Co. Pvt. Ltd. v/s K. M. Dessai, & Ors. 1993 (I) LLJ 127 wherein the Bombay High Court clearly held that the few extras duties cannot determine the status of the employee and the focus is on predominant nature of duties.
4. Bhatiya General Hospital & Anr. V.
Hanmant Anandrao Raje & Ors. Writ
Petition No. 11048/2022 wherein the Hon'ble Bombay High Court has held that the overall consideration should be the duties performed by the workmen.
OFFICIAL GAZETTE — GOVT. OF GOA SERIES II No. 44 1ST FEBRUARY, 20245. Damodar Mangeshkar V/s Cidade De Goa
2021(6) Mh.L.J.677 wherein accounts
supervisor was held to be a workman by the
Hon'ble High Court of Bombay at Goa as the
management failed to prove that his main
duties were managerial, administrative and
supervisory.
48. A reading of these judgments show that it is
not the designation but the duties done by the
employee which determines whether a person is a
'workman' or not.
49. For the reasons stated above, it is seen that
Yatin Chodnekar was working predominantly in a
supervisor y, administrative and managerial
capacity. There is no evidence to show that he was
working predominantly as a clerk. He was the
Dy. Manager-Accounts and second in command in
the Accounts Department. Hence, the above
mentioned case-laws do not apply to this case.
50. The Union Representative, Shri P. Gaonkar has relied upon the laws laid down in Deepali Gundu Surwase Versus Kranti Junior Adhyapaka Mahavidyalaya & Ors (2013(10) SCC 324). It deals with, when and how back wages should be granted.
51. Since Yatin Chodnekar and Vincent Miranda are not workmen, this Tribunal has no jurisdiction to grant back wages. The said case-law is irrelevant.
Hence, I pass the following:-
ORDER
(i) The claims of Yatin Chodnekar and Vincent
Miranda are rejected.
(ii) No orders as to costs.
(iii) Inform the Government accordingly.
