https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=197614 Section 47(1) of the disability law protects an employee who acquires disability during service and remains in employment; it cannot be invoked after a valid termination for prolonged absenteeism. The employee here remained absent for a long period, did not answer the employer's notices or charge-sheet, failed to produce the required medical certificate, and raised the disability claim only after termination. The belated challenge to the disciplinary action also undermined the Commissioner's interference. The termination of service was upheld, and the order granting reinstatement, continuity of service, and monetary benefits was set aside. en-us Wed, 10 Dec 2008 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 10 Jan 2018 18:04:21 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=197614 Section 47(1) of the disability law protects an employee who acquires disability during service and remains in employment; it cannot be invoked after a valid termination for prolonged absenteeism.
