JudegementView PDF

Case Summary: Reference 72/2024 Court Decision: The Labor Court rejected the reference filed by the respondent (irrigation department officials) and dismissed it. Key Facts: Alpesh Ramajibhai Pedhadiya, a daily-wage worker employed since 2000 by the irrigation department as a laborer, was terminated from service on May 1, 2013, without notice, payment in lieu, or severance benefits. He worked over 240 days annually in continuous employment but was dismissed verbally without following due process under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. Court's Reasoning: The court found the termination illegal, holding that the employer violated Section 25(F) of the ID Act by failing to provide written notice, notice pay, or retrenchment compensation despite the worker completing over 240 days of continuous service annually—the statutory threshold triggering worker protections.
