State Of Haryana And Ors. Etc. Etc vs Piara Singh And Ors. Etc. Etc on 12 August, 1992

In the present case, keeping in view the aforestated legal LPA NO. 337 of 2003 in CWP No.1536 of 1988 10 principles, it is incumbent upon the respondents-petitioners to discharge the burden of establishing wholesale equivalence between them and their regular counterparts in terms of (i) qualification, (ii) mode of recruitment, (iii) discharge of duties; and (iv) degree of responsibility. On examining the pleadings we find that the respondents-petitioners have failed to discharge that onerous burden which would entitle them to invoke the doctrine of equal pay for equal work. Admittedly they have been getting the minimum wages. During the pendency of the Letters Patent Appeal their services have been even regularised in view of the policy framed in view of Piara Singh's case (supra).

In Charanjit Singh's case (supra), the Hon'ble Supreme Court examined the Full Bench decision of this court in Vijay Sharma's case (supra) in the case of daily wagers. It was held that the High Court had blindly proceeded on the basis that the doctrine of equal pay for equal work applies without examining any relevant factors for arriving at the conclusion that the daily wagers were entitled to the minimum of the pay scale granted to their counterparts and as such matters were remitted back to the High Court to examine each case on the basis of material placed before it. In para 19 of the said judgement, it was held that the principle of equal pay for equal work is not mechanical application in every case. Equal pay must be for equal work of equal value. The principle requires consideration of various dimensions of a given job.
