SHORT RECITAL OF THE CASE

The Genual Secretary, International Foundation & Garments (Pvt.) Ltd United Workers Union, (CBA) submitted a charter of demand dated 20.10.2014 consisting 07 demands under Section 35 (1), SIRA, 2013, due to frustration and dejection amongst the old workers who would not be benefitted by the new minimum wage limit of Rs. 12,000 pm announced by the Sind Govt as their wages were already around this unit due to long period of service but each new worker would receive an increase of Rs.2000 pm although both were badly hit by inflation equally. Besides, the CBA Union has further stressed that although the provincial government announced enhancement of minimum wages effective 01.07.2014, but no notification has so far been issued and therefore, the management did not increase the wages and since the management has taken the said request of CBA into consideration and at the same time, the CBA has categorically agreed that in case the management increase the wages of workers at the par of expected increase in the minimum wages during the year 2014, they shall not demand any further increase particularly to enhance the salary/wages of the workers if the same is not less than the proposed and incoming increase in the Minimum Wages. This matter was also discussed between the management and CBA Union who have further agreed the formula to increase wages/salaries of old workers who were on the roll of the company on 31.12.2012 and new recruited workers effective 01.01.2013 till date with some difference. Due to present situation, the CBA felt deeply concern which has also badly effecting the day to day production and in such situation, the management also intend to overcome and give some relief to the workers so as to maintain cordial atmosphere in the factory and maintain good and harmonious relations with the CBA Union and workers as well. Since the CBA Union after receipt of afore-mentioned notice of demand has vigorously approached the management to cope up with such situation and particularly for the reason that the old workers may not be deprived due to the said proposed increase in wages, joint meetings between the management and representatives of CBA Union held wherein the matter was discussed at length and taking into consideration all pros and cons of the matter, the management has agreed to sign a new agreement of settlement which would be effective from 1st July, 2014 to 3rd June, 2016, to which the CBA Union has also agreed. Apart from above during the course of joint meetings, the whole charter of demand submitted by CBA Union was discussed in the light of financial constraints of the company due to enormous increase in the overall cost of production due to various other factors including the proposed enhanced minimum wages. The management, however, realizing need for allowing reasonable increase in wages of all workers due to ever increasing cost of living as a result of high inflation, agreed to enter into an agreement of settlement. Finally, both the parties agreed in the meeting held on 11th November, 2014, to the following terms of settlement which should take place from 1st July, 2014, for a period of two years i e., up to 3rd June, 2016. The benefits under this agreement will accrue to all the workers of the factory who are in service of the company at the time of signing of this Agreement, i.e. on 13th November, 2014.
