Meaning of the expression “continued ill-health” under sub clause (c) of section 2 (oo) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947

As per sub clause (c) of section 2(oo) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 the expression “continued ill-health” does not mean uninterrupted continued ill-health but what it means ill-health for considerable period and long duration affecting normal discharge of duties. It must have a bearing on the normal discharge of duties. 

What is to be seen is whether the workman does not possess good health for a considerable long period and that has affected him from active duties.  

To note further this issue has been discussed in one of the decided case of Mumbai High Court in year 2005.
