    4. Conceptual Framework

    Industrial Disputes Act, 1947

    The Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 extends to the whole ofIndia.

    It came into force April 1, 1947.

    An Act to make provision for the investigation and settlement of industrial disputes, and for certain

    other purposes.

    Citation Act No. 14 of 1947

    Enacted by Central Legislative Assembly

    Date enacted 11 March 1947

    Date assented to 11 March 1947

    Date commenced 1 April 1947

    Applicability

    The Industrial Disputes Act extends to whole of India and applies to every industrial establishment

    carrying on anybusiness, trade, manufacture ordistribution of goods and services irrespective of the

    number of workmen employed therein. Every person employed in an establishment for hire or reward

    including contract labour, apprentices and part-time employees to do any manual, clerical, skilled,

    unskilled, technical, operational or supervisory work, is covered by the Act. This Act though does not

    apply to persons mainly in managerial or administrative capacity, persons engaged in a supervisory

    capacity and drawing > 10,000 p.m or executing managerial functions and persons subject to Army

    Act, Air Force and Navy Act or those in police service or officer or employee of aprison.

    Objectives

    The objective of the Industrial Disputes Act is to secure industrial peace and harmony by

    providing machinery and procedure for the investigation and settlement ofindustrial disputes by

    negotiations.

    Various studies indicate that Indian labour laws are highly protective of labour, and labour

    markets are relatively inflexible. These laws apply only to the organised sector. Consequently,

    these laws have restricted labour mobility, have led to capital-intensive methods in the organised

    sector and adversely affected the sectors long-run demand for labour. Labour being a subject in

    the concurrent list, State-level labour regulations are also an important determinant of industrial

    performance. Evidence suggests that States, which have enacted more pro-worker regulations,have lost out on industrial production in general. -- Ministry of Finance, 2006, p. 209 the

    Industrial Disputes Act (IDA) of 1947. Particular attention has been paid to its Chapter V-B,

    introduced by an amendment in 1976, which require firms employing 300 or more workers to

    obtain government permission for layoffs, retrenchments and closures. A further amendment in

    1982 (which took effect in 1984) expanded its ambit by reducing the threshold to 100 workers. It

    is argued that since permission is difficult to obtain, employers are reluctant to hire workers

    whom they cannot easily get rid of. Job security laws thus protect a tiny minority of workers in

    the organised sector and prevent the expansion of industrial employment that could benefit the

    mass of workers outside. It is also argued that the restriction on retrenchment has adversely

    affected workplace discipline, while the threshold set at 100 has discouraged factories fromexpanding to economic scales of production, thereby harming productivity. Several other

    sections of the IDA allegedly have similar effects, because they increase workers bargaining

    strength and thereby raise labour costs either directly through wages or indirectly by inhibiting

    work reorganization in response to changes in demand and technology. The Act also lays down

    1. The provision for payment ofcompensation to the workman on account of closure or lay

    off orretrenchment.

    2. The procedure for prior permission of appropriate Government for laying off or

    retrenching the workers or closing down industrial establishments

    3. Unfair labour practices on part of an employer or a trade union or workers.

    Institutional disputes

    Meaning

    Institutional disputes are organized protests against existing terms and conditions of employment.

    These disputes are symptoms of industrial unrest in a country. According to the industrial act 1947 ,

    an dispute means any dispute or difference between employers and employees, or between

    employers and employees, or between employers and workmen or between workmen and workmen,

    which is connected with the employment or non-employment or terms of employment or with the

    conditions of labour of any person.

    A dispute can become institutional dispute when the following conditions are satisfied-

    i. There must be actually a dispute or difference between employers and employees or

    employees and employees or workers and workers.

    ii. The dispute must be connected with the employment/non-employment or terms of

    employment or with the conditions of labour of any person.

    iii. There must exist a relationship of employer and workmen as a result of the contract of

    employment and the workmen must be actually employed.

    An institutional dispute is not a personal dispute of one person. It generally affects a large

    number of workers having community of interest. The parties of dispute have direct and

    substantive interest in the dispute. The dispute is taken up in a concerted manner byworkers/employer.

    Definition

    Institutional Dispute consists of militant and organized protest against existing industrial system.

    They are the system of institutional unrest in the same way that boils our symptoms of disorder ofbody.

    persons employees in an organisation, acting in combination or a concerted refusal under a

    common understanding, of a number or persons who are or have been so employed to

    Strikes are of several types, e.g., sit down strike, stay in strike, tools down/pen down

    strike, token or protest strike, hunger strike, cat call/lightning strike, go slow, boycott.

    2. Gherao- It means encircling the employer or his representative. The blockade it means to

    restrict the movement of the person so as to put pressure on him/her for accepting the

    demands of workers. It amounts to wrongful confinement or restraint.

    3. Picketing- In this method, workers are dissuaded from reporting for work by certain persons

    stationed at the gate of organisation. It is legal so long as no violence is involved. It is

    primarily a method of drawing public attention towards the dispute.

    4. Lockout- According to the Industrial Dispute Act, Lockout means the closing of a place of

    business of employment or the suspension of work, or the refusal by an employer to continue

    22/32

    Causes of Disputes

    Industrial disputes arise due to several causes, some of which are given below :

    1.Salary and allowance- Demand for increase in salary and allowances is the most important cause

    if the institutional disputes. Due to inflation and rising cost of living, workers and their unions

    periodically put up a demand for increase in their remuneration so as to maintain their real income.Employers do not accept the demands easily and fully leading to strikes and other types of disputes in

    the organisation.

    2.Bonus- Workers and trade unions want a share in the profits of the organisation. Employers refusal

    to share the profit results to disputes.

    3.Personnel and Retrenchment- Victimisation of workers, refusal by employers to recognize tradeunion, communication gap between employers and employees, suspension and dismissal of workers

    fall in this category.

    4.Leave and hours of work- Poor working conditions and violation of Factories Act, 1948

    provisions concerning leave and working hours in another cause of unrest.

    5.Indiscipline and Violence- Lack of discipline among workers and violence on the part ofemployers, trade union leaders and workers result in serious disputes.

    6.Other Reasons- Inter-union rivalry, multiplicity of unions, political pressure on workers, petty

    quarrels, misbehavior, automisation and other similar factors lead to disputes.

  • 7/27/2019 Shobu Report

    23/32

    Prevention of disputes

    The following measures can be taken to prevent the institutional disputes-

    1. Model standing orders: The purpose of these orders is to prescribe guidelines for regulating

    relations between employers and employees under the Industrial Employment (Standing

    Orders) Act,1946. The Central and State Governments have framed model standing orders

    which can be adopted by any organisation.

    Standing orders define and regulate terms and conditions of employment and bring

    about uniformity in them. These also specify the duties and responsibilities of both

    employees and employers and regulate standards of their conduct.

    2. Joint consultative machinery: Service conditions in the government sector are deal with at

    National Council, Departmental councils and Regional or office councils.

    3. Tripartite Bodies: several tripartite bodies have been constituted at Central and state levels.

    The Indian Labour Conference, standing labour Committees, wage boards and industrial

    committees operate at the centre. At the state levels, state labour advisory boards have been

    set up. All these bodies play an important role in reaching at agreements on various labour

    matters. The recommendations of these bodies are advisory in nature but carry a great weight

    on employees, trade unions and the government.

    4. Labour Welfare Officer: The Factories Act,1948 provides for the appointment of a Labour

    Welfare Officer in every organisation employing 50 or more workers. The officer looks after

    all facilities in the organisation provided for health, safety and welfare of workers, he keeps

    liaison with both the employer and the workers and serves as a communication link.

  • 7/27/2019 Shobu Report

    24/32

    5. Suggestion Schemes: Under this system, workers are invited and encouraged to offer

    suggestions for improving the working of the enterprise. A suggestion box is installed. Any

    worker can write his suggestions and put it into the box. Periodically all the suggestions are

    scrutinized by the Suggestions Committee. Good suggestions are accepted for implementation

    and suitable rewards are given to the concerned workers.

    6. Joint Management Councils: These councils were set up in 1958 consequent upon the

    acceptance of socialistic pattern of society. These consists of equal representatives of

    management and workers., not exceeding twelve, at the planet level in selected institutional

    units, the units should employ at least five hundred workers, should have a well established

    and strong central organisation of employees unions and should have a record of good

    institutional relations.

    7. Works Committee: Works committee deal with matters day-to-day functioning at the shop

    floor level. According to the Indian Labour Conference [1959] works committee are

    concerned with-

    Conditions of work such as ventilation, lightning, temperature and sanitation including

    latrines and urinals.

    Amenities such as drinking water, canteens, dining rooms, medical and health services.

    Safety and accident prevention, occupational diseases.

    Adjustment of festivals and national holidays.

    Administration of welfare and fine funds.

    8. Collecting bargaining: Collective bargainingis a process in which the representatives ofthe

    3.Adjudication: Adjudication is the ultimate legal remedy for settlement of Industrial Dispute.

    Adjudication means intervention of a legal authority appointed by the government to make a

    settlement which is binding on both the parties. In other words adjudication means a mandatory

    settlement of an Industrial dispute by a labour court or a tribunal. For the purpose of

    adjudication, the Industrial Disputes Act provides a 3-tier machinery:

    1. Labour court

    2. Industrial Tribunal

    3. National Tribunal

    Labour Court: The appropriate government may, by notification in the official gazette

    constitute one or more labour courts for adjudication of Industrial disputes relating to any matters

    specified in the second schedule of Industrial Disputes Act. They are:

    Dismissal or discharge or grant of relief to workmen wrongfully dismissed.

    Illegality or otherwise of a strike or lockout.

    Withdrawal of any customary concession or privileges.

    Where an Industrial dispute has been referred to a labour court for adjudication, it shall

    hold its proceedings expeditiously and shall, within the period specified in the order referring

    such a dispute, submit its report to the appropriate government.

    Industrial Tribunal: The appropriate government may, by notification in the official gazette,

    constitute one or more Industrial Tribunals for the adjudication of Industrial disputes relating to

    the following matters:

    Wages

    Compensatory and other allowances

    Hours of work and rest intervals

    Leave with wages and holidays

    Bonus, profit-sharing, PF etc. Rules of discipline

    Retrenchment of workmen

    Working shifts other than in accordance with standing orders

    It is the duty of the Industrial Tribunal to hold its proceedings expeditiously and to submit its

    report to the appropriate government within the specified time.

    National Tribunal: The central government may, by notification in the official gazette,

    constitute one or more National Tribunals for the adjudication of Industrial Disputes in

    Matters of National importance.

    Matters which are of a nature such that industries in more than one state are likely to be

    interested in, or are affected by the outcome of the dispute.

    It is the duty of the National Tribunal to hold its proceedings expeditiously and to submit its

    report to the central government within the stipulated time.

    4.Arbitration: A process in which a neutral third party listens to the disputing parties, gathers

    information about the dispute, and then takes a decision which is binding on both the parties.

    The conciliator simply assists the parties to come to a settlement, whereas the arbitrator listens to

    both the parties and then gives his judgment. There are two types of arbitration:

    1. Voluntary Arbitration: In voluntary arbitration the arbitrator is appointed by both

    the parties through mutual consent and the arbitrator acts only when the dispute is

    referred to him.

    2. Compulsory Arbitration: Implies that the parties are required to refer the dispute

    to the arbitrator whether they like him or not. Usually, when the parties fail to arrive at a

    settlement voluntarily, or when there is some other strong reason, the appropriate

    government can force the parties to refer the dispute to an arbitrator.
