Meaning and Definition
An industrial dispute means any
dispute or difference between employers and employers or employers and workmen
or between workmen and workmen, which is connected with employment or
non-employment or terms of employment or conditions of labour, of any person.
Every human being (say a worker)
has certain needs. E.g., economic needs, social needs and needs for security.
When these needs do not get satisfied, there arises a conflict between labour
and capital. A conflict means a struggle or clash between the interests of the
employer and the workers. When an industrial conflict (which otherwise is
general in nature) acquires a concrete and specific display or revelation, it
becomes an “industrial dispute”. A conflict takes the shape of Industrial
Dispute as soon as the issues of controversy are submitted to the employer for
negotiations.
The
Industrial Disputes act, 1947, defines an industrial dispute as “ any dispute or difference between employers and
employers, or between employees and employees, or between employers and
employees, which is connected with the employment, or non-employment, or the
terms of employment or with the conditions of work of any person”.
