Industrialization has tended to create a hiatus between management and employees, owing to the absence of employees ownership over means of production this gap has led to industrial friction and conflicts, which ultimately cause industrial disputes. Industrial disputes are classified into two kinds that is, individual disputes and collective disputes. Quite often the terms of reference incase of individual disputes may be a straight forward issues without much complications in adjudicating the same. On the contrary collective disputes more intimately if they relate to a well settled industrial establishment involving an organized trade union movement often involves the issues of far reaching implications for adjudication. In such situations the job of the Labour Tribunal is viewed as more critical and challenging. The crux of the matter lies in effective interpretation and proper implementation of the ‘award’. The basis for emerging of the ‘award’ from an Industrial Tribunal is, the terms of reference as specified by the Appropriate Government under Sec 10(1) of the Act. It is such time of disputes invariably involves the situations of conflict in its implementation and interpretation. Though, the Act defines an ‘award’ in a simple manner the inter-crisis involved in it when we examine the same from the point of view of Sub Sec 4 of Sec 10 of the Act. Again the interesting point of conflict is pertaining to the last part of the Sub Sec namely, “matters incidental thereto”.
