Dear Sir, With reference to Para 13 of Industrial employment standing orders central rules 1946, if an employer/manager wants to terminate a permanent female workmen on grounds of misconduct, can he do it by giving her a one month’s notice. If No, then let me know the grounds on which the employee can be terminated. This is a garment manufacturing unit operating under the factory license and having strength of over 100 workmen working as machine operators and helpers. The female workmen in question has completed over 02.5 years of service in the company and continues to be a habitual offender. The Top management avoids taking actions against all her misconducts fearing that she would join the 'Union' . On the other hand, my attitude related to the discipline remains firm and fearless and 'Numbers' in union don't matter to me. Thanks
