Decision |
The Labour Appellate Tribunal accepted all revision petitions, setting aside the impugned orders of the Labour Court which had dismissed the applications for interim stay. The Tribunal directed the Labour Court to redecide the applications for interim stay, suspending the implementation of the reversion orders until a final decision is reached. The Tribunal found that the dismissal of the stay applications was incorrect as the petitioners were not affected by the previous orders of the Labour Court, which were based on a settlement regarding promotions. |
Summary |
This case involves the Labour Appellate Tribunal's decision regarding the wrongful reversion of several employees within the Government Transport Service. The Tribunal found that the Labour Court had incorrectly dismissed the petitioners' applications for interim stay on the grounds that their reversion orders were valid. The Tribunal highlighted that the petitioners were promoted from positions within the traffic cadre and thus were not subject to the previous orders of the Labour Court that were based on a settlement from 1969. The decision emphasizes the importance of fair treatment in employment matters and the rights of employees to contest wrongful reversion. This case serves as a significant reference point for issues surrounding industrial relations and employee rights in Pakistan, particularly under the Industrial Relations Ordinance. The ruling reinforces the necessity for proper jurisdiction and consideration of facts in employment disputes, ensuring that employees can seek justice through appropriate legal channels. |
