Settlement .....Without Union...Maharashtra

Dear Seniors,
Can the Management & Workers can have wage settlement in absence of any Union,
If yes can these settlement will be enforcebable if it is done without participation of Government Authorities...?
Thanks in advance....!!!

Dear Prashant,
Only when the problem arises the union or the government authority interfere in the settlement.
If the workers is happy about the settlement they can go ahead. But it is best to inform the union members about the settlement.

Dear Prashant,
Then it is only management and employee settlement. if they are happy they can go ahead. Unless the employees don't accept the settlement will not be finalised.

Dear
If no union of workers is functioning in an industry ,the workers can elect five representatives to negotiate and arrive at settlement with management on the workers demands. The copies of the settlement needs to be sent to the prescribed authorites as per maharashtra industrial dispute rules. Then this settlement becomes legal one.

Dear Sir,
Settlement with all individual workmen/employees with out unions is valid. A copy of the Settlement
arrived with each person to be sent to Labour Dept. for registration. This is called Sec.18(1) settlement under I.D.Act. without Govt.authority. This is valid in law and executable.
But in reality, it is not possible when unions are existing.

Get the individual workers to sign separate letter addressed to the Company ; agreeing to the settlement that has been arrived at. Also, all the workers should sign jointly ; which becomes part of the settlement as an annexure.

Dear Ravi,
12/3 is long term agreement for three years and above
18/1 is one year settlement between empolyee & empolyer and a copy send to conciliation.
