casestatus.in Summary

The Supreme Court upheld Karnataka's 1997 notification banning contract labour in factory canteens employing 250+ workers under the Contract Labour (Regulation & Abolition) Act, 1970. The Court held that canteen operations are incidental and necessary to factory establishments under the Factories Act and constitute work in which contract labour can be abolished. The Court rejected petitioners' arguments that canteens are mere facilities unrelated to manufacturing, finding adequate consultation occurred and individual factory circumstances need not be examined separately when formulating sector-wide policy. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
