Salary Deduction

Can an employer reduce an employee's salary. The salary of an employee which is about say more than 60,000/- per month. If so, then under which act and if not then under which act? Are there any relevant judgments to that effect.

Workmen's compensation

Sirs,
The status of our company is contractor. One of our contractor's employee has met with an accident. Commissioner under workmen's compensation act has passed for depositing sum of Rs. 30,000/- by the principal employer within 30 days and get indemnified by us.

My query is :
1) Our contractor is saying that he would go to High Court for appeal. What is the procedure for this. First should he deposit the money of Rs. 30,000/- with the Commissioner and then should he file appeal ?

2) Otherwise, our Principal employer would deposit the money and would deduct from my bills. Can we straight away deduct the same money from my contractor ?

Please clarify.

Thanking you,

Over time rules

Dear Sirs,

We have a new project in Kerala and we engaged EPC contract. our manpower is only management staffs like Engineers, Senor Engineers managers etc( not workers or labours). Since it is a on site job our normal working hours are 10+1.
As per labour law 8 hours daily working time and 50 hrs OT for a month is applicable ( as per my knowledge ). But in our case it may go more if we will keep daily working hours as 8 hrs. we are ready to pay more money to staff if they worked more hours. But my question is " the rule of 50 hr OT per month". In our past case many time the OT hrs exceed 50 hrs. Also we dont want to increase manpower instead of giving OT. If the staffs agreed to work for 10 hrs per day, is it possible? please clarify.

requirement of memberships of outside trade union

Sir

A stock broking company has its various branches in various cities in India and it hasn't allowed any trade union. Its workers have joined a outsider trade union. What is minimum mandatory requirement of its workers to join that trade union to raise their industrial disputes. Please quote sections of the act or case laws if any.

Can a trader of a sock broking company be a workman ? Is there any guidelines of any court(s) in this regard especially where job profile require mental analysis?

Thanks in advance.

Indemnity Bond

Workers refuse to work cos of Agreement is due

We had a external union and 50% of the blue color employees had done an individual agreement with company and enjoying the benefits as per the new increase. Rest of the 50% of employees are not ready to do the same, they want the agreement has to be done with union jointly.

Now management don't wanna discuss the same with the union. Now today we had suspended 2 of them for some misconduct. All of them had stoped the work and not entering the premises (Strike).

In this situation what to do?
