Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court interpreted the term 'workmen concerned in such dispute' under Section 33(1)(a) of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, as amended by Act 36 of 1956, to include not only those directly involved in the dispute but also those representing others affected by it. The Court upheld the Industrial Tribunal's award for reinstatement of the respondent, K. T. Morris, who was dismissed without permission during an ongoing dispute, affirming that his dismissal was linked to his advocacy for other employees. The appeal by the employer was dismissed, reinforcing the Tribunal's decision.
