Under the Industrial Disputes Act, termination can be made only as follows:

Termination of the service of the workman as a result of the non-renewal of the contract of employment between the employer and   the    workman   concerned   on its expiry or of such contract being terminated under a stipulation in that behalf contained therein; or

Termination of the service of a workman on the ground of continued ill-health

Termination by retrenchment by the employer of the service of a workman for any reason whatsoever, otherwise than as a punishment inflicted by way of disciplinary action, but does not include--

            (a) voluntary retirement of the workman; or

            (b) retirement of the workman on reaching the age of superannuation if the contract of employment between the employer and the workman concerned contains a stipulation in that behalf.
