Employees to be regularized. It is not possible for Supreme Court to enquire about abolishing Contract Labour. Only the Appropriate Govt. can do it.. Neither Labour Court nor Writ court could determine whether contract labour should be abolished or not. this being the exclusive domain of Appropriate Govt Section 10 not passed .The high court could not exercise of its jursdiction under Art 226, direct absorption of respondants, on grounds that the work done by contract labour was perennial. The respondants have to approach the Industrial Tribunal and establish scam and camouflage Contractor is liable to pay wages,failing which principal employer becomes liable Article 19(1)(g) and Article 14 not violated on basis of Supreme Court upheld the constitutional validity of reasonable restriction and intelligible diffrentia the Contract Labour Act respectively Contract labour cannot become employees of principal employer merely because contractor or employer has not obtained license or registration respectively. Wages paid by Contractor to his workers shall be equal to the wages paid by the principal employer to his workers doing similar works.

Supreme Court recommended that the Central Government should amend the Act by incorporating a suitable provision to refer to industrial adjudicator the question of the direct employment of the workers of the ex-contractor in the principal establishments, when the appropriate Government abolishes the contract labour. Sham and Camouflage conditions Appropriate government for contractor will be same as of principal employer. Amendment is not a law Amendment is not a law Amendment is a law, but no previous amendments will be declared null and void, First time prospective overruling Article 13(4) is valid Ruling party can NOT change the Basic Structure of the constitution Equal pay for equal work is deducible from Article 14,16, 39(d) and Preamble. Creamy layer + 50% cap on reservation Peaceful and orderly demonstration a fundamental 19(1) - Speech and expression + 19(b) - peaceful right as a result of Article 19(1)(a)(b) assembly Right to form unions under Article 19(1)(c) does not carry with the right to collectively bargain and hold a strike. These were later on made a legal right, but they are not a fundamental right Violation of article 23 (minimum wages), Issues like Child Labour, Contract Labour violation should not be handled by meagre fine, but adequately punished But later on, the court found that Right to Livelihood was untenable in India given the present situation(Delhi Development Horticulture Employees' union v/s Delhi Adminstration), so it was shifted to Article 21 includes Right to livelihood as well Directive Principle Free Election is a basic structure Right to life includes right to live with dignity The test to determine as to when a corporation can A corporation can be said to be an instrumentality of be said to be an instrumentality or agency of the government if: 1. Government hold a large share Government. in the corporation. 2. Financial assistance by the state to meet almost entire expenditure 3. Corporations enjoys monoply or protection by the state 4. Deep and Prevasive state control 5. Functions are public importance and related to state 6. if a department of state is transfered to a corporation Amendment of rights is allowed under Article 368 Amendment of rights is allowed under Article 368

Parliament cannot amend the basic structure of the Indian constitution. Directive principles are superior to fundamental rights.

The case questions if a corporation was created by The court reasoned that irrespective of the origins of a corporation be it by a statute or a government the state by a statuate or under a statuate then company or a company formed under the comapnies does it qualify as an instumrntality of the state? act 1956 etc,- the corporations will only be considered an instrumenatlity of the government within the meaning of article 12 and on the assesment of the relevent facts. Laid down guidlines to prevent sexual harrasment of working women in place of their work until a legislation to this effect is enacted Right to education upto the age of 14 is a fundamental right law made by SC is binding on all courts not including itself not necessarily 10 workers at the time of visit of factory inspector Laundry connected to hospital washing only hospital's clothes not a factory Field Workers dont come under definition of workers. If by resolution a company puts a person with ultimate control on the affair of the factory then that person can be considered an owner

In State, 2(n)(iii) applicable instead of 2(n)(ii) Preparation of food and beverages and its sale to the members of club are also included in the definition of manufacturing process Worker disobeyed the direction and got injured but not putting an underguard to the transmission machinery is a contravention on the part of the employer.

Need not absorb workers since canteen run by cooperative society has to absorb employees Case of employee not covered in the definition of worker not allowed benefits of payment of wages during leave period It was held that the employer should appoint a Welfare Officer, even if the factory employs over 500 workers only for a few months in the year and not continuously.

Finally in 1993, in another case, the court observed that Right to Livelihood ensures that before firing any employee, the management must give him a chance to explain himself. The principal of natural justice should be followed

Natural Justice principle: a) Free from bias and interest in the subject matter. b) audi alteram partem - reasonable opportunity to be heard. Not issued against a private body.
