https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=171169 A dispute raised only by a single workman, without espousal by a union or a substantial body of workmen, is treated as a private grievance rather than an industrial dispute under the U.P. Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. The text reads the statutory scheme as collective in character, aimed at industrial peace, prevention of strikes and lock-outs, and resolution of disputes affecting workmen as a class. Provisions on conciliation, tribunal procedure, representation, interim service conditions, and the binding effect of awards are said to support that collective construction. On that basis, a purely individual dispute does not acquire industrial-dispute status, and the reference is described as incompetent. en-us Wed, 20 Mar 1957 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 13 Jul 2015 14:19:38 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=171169 A dispute raised only by a single workman, without espousal by a union or a substantial body of workmen, is treated as a private grievance rather than an industrial dispute under the U.P.
