CHANDIGARH, OCT 21
As a result of a
tripartite agreement reached between the Haryana Government, Management
of Maruti Suzuki India Ltd and Workers, the labour unrest, continuing
since October 7 in the four plants of Maruti Suzuki India Ltd, Suzuki
Motorcycle, Suzuki Powertrain Ltd and Suzuki Casting Plant came to an
end today and the workers would return to work with immediate effect.
While giving this information here
today, an official spokesman said that this had been made possible due
to the intervention of the Haryana Labour Department and the District
Administration of Gurgaon in a series of talks held with the Management
of Maruti Suzuki India Ltd and the representatives of the workers of the
plants.
As a part of
the agreement reached, the management has agreed to take back 64 of the
2,000 permanent workers who had been sacked for breaching disciplinary
guidelines. Another 30 will remain suspended because of the “serious
nature” of their actions during the industrial dispute. All the
contractual workers would now be allowed to come back and work in these
Plants and the situation of the workers would now be the same as was on
August 29, 2011.
He said that Maruti had decided to set up a
“grievance redressal committee”, with representation from the
management and workers, to prevent further strikes. A labour officer
would also be a permanent member on the committee. In order to
provide a harmonious working environment at the facility, it was also
decided that in future if there was a strike in any one Plant of Maruti
Suzuki, the workers of the other plants would not join the strike.
It was further
decided amongst both the sides that the concept of ‘no work no pay’
would also come into force, thereby no pay would be due towards the
striking workers. Besides this, only one day’s pay would be deducted as
penalty.
