Case History
Case Summary: SLP(C) No. 8192/1998 - Goetze India Ltd. v. State of Karnataka The Supreme Court upheld Karnataka's 1997 notification abolishing contract labour in industrial canteens of factories employing 250+ workers under the Contract Labour (Regulation & Abolition) Act, 1970. The Court rejected petitioners' arguments that canteen work was peripheral to manufacturing, holding that statutory canteen obligations under the Factories Act make such work integral to establishment operations, thus permitting contract labour prohibition under Section 10 of the Act.
