Let me know, difference between Industrial court and Labour court with their duties

The Labour Court is the first court and the Industrial Court is the appellate court in the MP Industrial Relations Act 1960 modelled on the basis of BIR Act. All matters lie before the Labour Court and it is the original court.

Dear Satish,
The matters with in the Jurisdiction of Labour Courts (Section 7) THE SECOND SCHEDULE of Industrial Dispute Act:

4. Withdrawal of any customary concession or privilege;5. Illegality or otherwise of a strike or lock-out; and 6. All matters other than those specified in the Third Schedule.
The matters with in the Jurisdiction of Industrial Tribunals (Section 7A)THE THIRD SCHEDULE of Industrial Dispute Act, as follows
1. Wages, including the period and mode of payment; 2. Compensatory and other allowances; 3. Hours of work and rest intervals; 4. Leave with wages and holidays; 5. Bonus, profit sharing, provident fund and gratuity; 6. Shift working otherwise than in accordance with standing orders; 7. Classification by grades; 8. Rules of discipline; 9. Rationalization; 10.

The Industrial Relations Act (be it BIR or MPIR Act) is an improvement on ID Act containing significant provisions like identification of bargaining agent by the State by way of Representative Union, its status of being sole bargaining agent, binding nature of agreement with the Representative Union, direct filing of termination cases in the labour court, practical impossibility of holding a legal strike or lock out etc. In the said Acts, the Labour Court is the original forum of adjudication and Industrial Court is the appellate forum. The provisions of ID Act are different and are not applicable in IR Act matters.
