*Ex-staff can’t represent union: High Court Madras* CHENNAI: Political parties may no longer be able to control employees’ unions and compel them to participate in strikes and protests sponsored by them if a proposal by the Madras high court takes effect. The court has suggested to the law commission and ministry of labour and welfare to amend the Trade Union Act to stop outsiders, including former employees, from being members or office bearers of employees’ trade unions. Currently, employees’ unions in several establishments are headed by non-employees, mostly representatives of political parties. “Even after retirement, if a person is allowed to continue as leader (of employees’ union), it will abrogate the powers of the trade union, which is meant for collective bargaining. Serving employees alone are in a better position to understand the difficulties faced by other employees. Therefore, the membership of any union should be restricted only to the ser

This  is very old decision and I think the leaders and the Management obtained a stay order and appealed to Supreme Court.The game goes on while the employees suffer.

Union leaders are  same as Political leaders. Once they taster power do not give up easily unless forced by court.

Both IBA and UFBU are practicing double standards.

They often abuse retirees for going to court. But same leaders approached courts to get stay for above HC decision to save their positions.

When Banks refused to give mandate they shout that their trade union rights/privileges being curtailed.

But they did  not think twice surrendering Statutory rights of pensioners by signing Record Note.

They claim going to court will hamper negotiations of Pensioners issues though no court has barred them from negotiating issues.

But in case of Bank mergers they file WP in court and also simultaneously negotiate issue with govt.

IBA also same. At the drop of a hat IBa cry sub -Judice.  But when Consumer court gave verdict against it, IBA not only appealed against it in HC but also prominently displayed it in its website.

And in every case where HC gave verdicts favourable to pensioners IBA dragged the case to SC.
