Abstract:
An industrial dispute may be defined as a conflict or difference of opinion between management and workers on the terms of employment. It is a disagreement between an employer and employee’s representative; usually a trade union, over pay and other working conditions and can result in industrial actions. Prevention is always better than cure and, therefore, first of all those methods which can prevent the occurrence of industrial disputes between Labour and Management in the organization will be focused upon. The immediate need of the hour is that of narrowing the gap between labour and management and to find out the means of establishing mutual trust between employers and the workers. In addition to bringing about a change in the attitude of the employers, who should directly take a personal interest in the welfare of the workers, there are other methods which suggest themselves in this connection. The first is the development of stable trade unions having access to the management. However, sooner or later, the employers and the workers must realize that they have to co-operate and resolve their differences between themselves, if both are to prosper. A strong trade union movement, schemes of workers co-operation and participation in management, atmosphere of trust and respect on both sides has to be established.
