Associated Cement Staff Union And The ... vs The Associated Cement Co. Ltd., Bombay, ... on 3 December, 1963
The learned Attorney General also drew our attention
to Associated Cements Staff Union v. Associated Cement
Company Ltd.(3) where this Court pointed out that it was not
the function of industrial adjudication to fix the working
hours with an eye to enable the workmen to earn over-time
wages and it pointed out that the various factors relevant
for fixing hours of work. The learned Attorney General
emphasised the fact that the Tribunal failed to consider the
question of adverse effect of the reduced working hours of
the office staff on production which is a relevant factor to
consider. He further contended that 8 hours a day is not
shown to impair the health of the workmen. It was also
argued that there is no general uniform pattern of 61 hours
of work per day in the offices of the other projects of the
Oil & Natural Gas Commission and that each project has its
own pattern to suit its requirements. Considerable stress
has also been laid on the submission that administrative
offices attached to all factories of the appellant have to
work for 48 hours a week., It must be particularly so in the
case of the administrative office attached to the central
workshop at Baroda which, according to the appellant's
submission, controls all the workshops in the western
region.

The
learned Attorney General drew our attention to the decision
in May & Bekar Ltd. v. Their Workmen(1) for the proposition
that it is not open to the Industrial Tribunal to reduce the
working hours either directly or indirectly where the
employer was following the working hours prescribed by a
statutory provision. In this reported case the relevant
provision of Delhi Shops & Establishments Act, 1954 fell for
consideration.
