Law on Industrial Disputes (With Central & State Rules), 4th edn. 2 vols. (Hardcover)

This major work is an analytical and exhaustive commentary on the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, (Act 14 of 1946) with a commentary on cases decided in the early days of the Act’s existence up to May 2010, Central & State Rules, The Industrial Employment Standing Orders Act, Rules, Model Standing Orders and other related Acts and Rules. The author has also examined relevant decisions under the law as it existed before the 1947 Act. In the last decade, the law on industrial disputes has undergone substantial change, it can even be said that it has been significantly diluted by the law laid down by the Supreme Court, particularly in respect of regularization of daily wagers/ casual employees/ temporary employees and ad hoc employees. The author has arranged the material in such a way that the reader is provided easy access to all shades of judicial opinion and is further assisted in locating the current judicial views and statutory law. The case law on each section and every significant sub-section has been arranged under headings and sub-headings which are numbered and placed under a synopsis to facilitate the reader’s search of law on the topic of his interest.
