Dipankar Banerjee, Amity Law School


ABSTRACT


In a country's economic development, both labour and capital are crucial. In this article, the 'Right to Strike' is defined as a statutory right granted to employees (labourers) to carry out their demands. Even though this is not a fundamental right, the Industrial Disputes Act of 1947 recognizes it. This right is of particular social importance, and as a result, its scope as a legal right has been expanded in the current Indian stratosphere. However, to achieve peace and stability between employers (the capital class) and employees, this right is subject to certain "reasonable restrictions". The focus of this paper will be on the Right to Strike, which is a statutory right under the Industrial Disputes Act, which deals with the right to strike in the workplace, will also be discussed in this paper.


Keywords: employer, labor, strike, statutory right, workers, disputes, employee, workmen.
