Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court modified the Labour Court's order regarding the reinstatement of the respondent, who had been discontinued from service. The Labour Court had originally granted reinstatement with 50% back-wages, but the respondent agreed to waive back-wages in exchange for reinstatement with continuity of service. The Court upheld this modification, allowing the respondent to be reinstated without back-wages, thereby affirming the continuity of service principle in employment disputes.
