Labour & Service Law
Industrial Dispute
A disagreement between employers and workmen, or between workmen themselves, connected with employment terms or working conditions.
Industrial disputes cover a wide range of workplace conflicts — wrongful termination, wage disputes, and conditions of service — and are typically resolved through conciliation, and if unresolved, adjudication before a Labour Court or Industrial Tribunal.
Whether an individual can raise a dispute directly, or needs it to be sponsored by a registered union, can depend on the specific nature of the claim and applicable procedure.
