Industrial discipline is critical to the productivity of any enterprise. Employees in India enjoy not only statutory protection under various laws but also constitutional guarantees. As a consequence, efforts to curb both mass indiscipline and individual misconduct have floundered, particularly as Indian courts tend to favour the employee. The remedy, says the author of this timely and lucid book, is to properly understand existing laws governing disciplinary action as also the correct procedures that need to be observed.
Dr Das Gupta covers all the various aspects of disciplinary action relating to dismissal, discharge or removal of employees and provides the latest judgements and interpretation of case law on the subject. Including numerous cases, the book gives examples of the formats for a chargesheet, notice of enquiry and letter of dismissal among others. A unique feature of this compact book is that it provides answers to 50 Frequently Asked Questions relating to industrial discipline.
Contents: Introduction. 1. Misconduct and Procedure for Enquiry. 2. The Employer and His Powers. 3. Answers to 50 FAQs.
