To add to the ongoing discussion on disciplinary control over the employees of Institutions registered under the State Co-operative Societies Acts, it is important to look into the provisions under each such Act relating to "Common Cadre Employees". In the interest of the spread of the Co-operative movement, certain posts in certain co-operative societies/institutions have been earmarked as common cadre posts and specific rules have been framed regarding their conditions of service under each State Act. They have been generally classified under the head/ definition of "Officers of the society" comprising of posts like Asst.Secretaries, Secretaries, Managers etc. As such, their employment grievances are to be disposed of by the Authorities under the respective Co-op Societies Act and subject to the Writ Jurisdictions of the respective High Courts and the Supreme Court and are excluded from the purview of State Shops & Estts Acts as well as the Industrial Disputes Act,1947.
