Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court upheld the decision of the Labour Court regarding the termination of the Respondent's services as a trainee under the U.P. Industrial Disputes Act, specifically Section 6N. The Court found that the Respondent was not a 'workman' as defined under the Act since he was engaged as a trainee and not in a permanent position. The Court held that the termination was justified as it occurred after the training scheme ended, and the Respondent was compensated as per statutory requirements, thus affirming the Labour Court's award.
