Disciplinary Action against Industrial Employees and its Remedies (Print On Demand)

A complete, practical and thorough work that gives full guidance to the employer as well as the employee in various kinds of disciplinary action cases.

In very practical terms, it explains the rights and obligations of the employer and provides an understanding of the areas in which an employer may still dispense with an employee's services without inviting legal or judicial odium. Where does one draw the line between permissible 'termination simpliciter' and an action which is stigmatic or punitive? This book also clearly explains the procedure and do's and don'ts for such action.

The circumstances under which an employer's disciplinary action can be challenged are also clearly explained. The remedies available to employees against illegal or motivated disciplinary action are explained in detail, and the rights and responsibilities of employees under various laws are discussed at length.

Important case law has been incorporated, and legislative changes affecting the rights and obligations of employers and employees in this field have been noted. The book is of immense utility to the employers, the judiciary, the labour law enforcement agencies, and industrial houses.
