Dear all,
Ours is a manufacturing industry having 460 employees who are covered by wage agreements. We have 4 registered trade unions. Recently trade union secret ballot elections were conducted by the labour department, and a union got majority and is recognized by the department of labour. Now they submitted charter of demands. We have to start negotiations with recognized trade union. They informed us they will form a wage negotiation committee with 40 members of their union. The number is too high. Kindly suggest whether any limitation or restriction in number of union members to form wage negotiation committee under ID Act or any other Act. Plz suggest urgently. Our MD is eagerly waiting for my reply. Hence plz do needful.
