The decision emphasized the importance of allowing the applicant to present evidence regarding the date of cause of action, reinforcing the necessity of procedural fairness in grievance applications. |
| Summary |
In the case of Revision Application No. KAR-61 of 1990, the Labour Appellate Tribunal, Sindh, addressed a grievance petition filed by Muhammad Siddique, challenging his removal from service. The primary legal framework involved was the Industrial Relations Ordinance, 1969, particularly Sections 25-A and 38(3-a). The Tribunal found that the Labour Court was correct in dismissing the establishment's application to reject the grievance petition on the grounds of being time-barred, as the question of limitation required a factual determination. This ruling underscores the significance of evidentiary support in employment disputes and the Tribunal's commitment to procedural justice. The decision illustrates the ongoing relevance of labour rights in the context of industrial relations, ensuring that workers have the opportunity to contest their dismissal effectively. |
