| Decision |
This appeal challenges the order dated January 2, 1991, by the Sindh Labour Court No. VI at Hyderabad, which rejected the grievance application as time-barred. After reviewing the case and hearing arguments from both advocates, it was determined that the grievance notice was filed within the permissible time frame. The court noted that the appellant was not aware of the restoration of promotions of co-workers, which affected his cause of action. Therefore, the previous ruling was set aside, and the case was remanded for re-trial, allowing the appellant's grievance to be duly considered. |

The tribunal examined the timelines of grievance notices and appeals, emphasizing the importance of timely representations in labor disputes. This case highlights the legal intricacies of labor rights, grievance mechanisms, and the responsibilities of employers to communicate changes affecting employees.
