Notice with respect to any change which affects the conditions of service applicable to any workman in respect of any matter specified in the IVth Schedule of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, shall not be effected within
Explanation
According to Section 9A of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, an employer who proposes to effect any change in the conditions of service applicable to any workman in respect of any matter specified in the Fourth Schedule must follow a mandatory notice procedure. The Fourth Schedule covers essential service conditions such as wages, compensatory allowances, hours of work, rest intervals, and leave.
The Act stipulates that no such change shall be implemented:
- Without giving the affected workmen a notice in the prescribed manner of the nature of the change proposed; and
- Within twenty-one days of giving such notice.
This 21-day period serves as a statutory waiting time to allow for potential negotiations, conciliation, or the raising of an industrial dispute by the workmen or their union before the change takes effect. Hence, option A is correct.
