Stay of order on absorption of workers extended

J. Venkatesan

NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Monday extended the interim stay of a Madras High Court judgment upholding the directions issued by a single judge to the Neyveli Lignite Corporation to absorb more than 12,000 contract labourers employed in the mines.

A Bench of Justice C.K. Thakker and Justice D.K. Jain extended the stay, acting on a special leave petition filed by the NLC that challenged the February 16 judgment of the High Court affirming the directions of a single judge. The Bench issued notice to the NLC I.T.U. Sangam and others.

In its petition, the NLC said that in May 1995, the management struck a bi-partite agreement with a group of seven trade unions for absorbing members of Indco Serve, one of the unions, in phases over five years. Since then, the NLC had absorbed 4,000 contract workers.
