I believe the topic which I choose for discussion has vast
gravity and if I want to sum up in short format then it will be as follows:
The principles of natural justice and reasonable opportunity
have a special significance in domestic proceedings.
Workman proceeded against has been informed clearly of the
charges levelled against him. This means that, workman against whom an enquiry
has to be held shall be given a charge-sheet clearly stating the charge put against
him and ask him to submit his explanation.
Workman may be suspended pending the enquiry. He shall be
permitted to appear himself for defending him or shall be permitted to be defended
by a workman working in the same department as himself or by an office bearer
of a trade union of which he is member. He shall be permitted to produce witness
in his defense and cross examine the witness of the management.
In this process the Enquiry Officer shall record a concise
summary of the evidence led on either side and the plea of the workman viz.
what he wants to say about the charges put against him.
The proceedings of the enquiry shall be conducted in
English, Hindi or in the language of the State where the industrial
establishment is located according to the choice of the workman and the person
defending him.
The enquiry should be completed within a period of three
months. The enquiry officer should record his findings which should include brief
reasons.
Hope this small write up will give insight about pertained
subject.
