Q143 (CISF/2017) Polity & Governance › Governance, Policies & Social Justice

In an industrial establishment, no workman can go on strike and no employer can declare a lock-out within how many days of conclusion of conciliation proceedings ?

Explanation

Under the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, specifically Section 22 (relating to public utility services) and Section 23 (general prohibition), workmen are prohibited from going on strike and employers from declaring a lock-out during the pendency of conciliation proceedings and seven days after the conclusion of such proceedings.

This statutory requirement is also upheld in Section 62 of the Industrial Relations Code, 2020. This "cooling-off" period is designed to prevent immediate industrial unrest and allow both parties to evaluate the outcome of the conciliation efforts. It is important to note that if the proceedings are before a Labour Court, Industrial Tribunal, or National Tribunal, the prohibited period is longer, extending to 60 days (two months) after the conclusion of the proceedings.
