Industrial Disputes in India and Settlement Mechanism
The problem of industrial disputes is pervasive in the majority of industrialized and developing countries around the globe. The absence of employee involvement in the equipment and processes of production has led to a growing gulf amongst management and workers as industrialization has advanced. This split has caused conflict and friction in the manufacturing industry, which has finally culminated in industrial conflicts. An effective industrial relations system and labour market depend on the resolution of disputes. The focus of this essay is on the practical and legal issues of settling labour disputes in India. Positive workplace relations are promoted by having a strong collective bargaining system and efficient communication between labour unions and management. These factors also help to lower the number of complaints.
