Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the appeal concerning the termination of a workman under Section 6(N) of the UP Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. The Court held that the Labour Court's determination of the workman's actual working days, including holidays, was not adequately considered by the High Court. Consequently, the matter was remitted to the Tribunal for a proper computation of the workdays and appropriate relief, emphasizing the need for accurate assessment of employment duration before determining the legality of termination.
