Manish Parshuram Pawar, Dr. Ashok Shankarrao Pawar

Abstract :

The main purpose of the Labour Code Act No. 71 of 1987 [hereinafter referred to as LCA] is to involve labor in the process of building the national economy so as to achieve prosperity and improve living conditions. Similarly, the main object of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 [hereinafter referred to as IDA] is the investigation and settlement of industrial disputes. With these objects in view, various authorities have been created by the respective enactments. The adjudication of labour disputes has at the first instance been kept out of the jurisdiction of the Municipal Courts so that efforts may be made for settlement of such disputes through some other agencies. The Works Committee, Conciliation Officer, Board of Conciliation, Courts of Inquiry, Labour Courts or the Industrial Tribunal, all aim at amicable settlement of the industrial dispute. The various modes of settlement of disputes provided by the Acts may oadly be classified under three heads: (1) Conciliation; (2) Arbitration, (3) Adjudication.
