Understanding the Certification of Standing Orders

If your establishment is covered under The Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946, then you are obliged to have standing orders certified by the Certifying Officer of your area under this Act.

Model Standing Orders

Model Standing Orders refer to those given in the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946, as a model for those who wish to draft one. An employer can take the same, add or remove certain rules, consult with the workers/representatives, and get it certified. Once it is certified, it becomes a certified standing order. A certified standing order can be amended after a period of six months.

Procedure for Certification

After preparing the draft standing orders, five copies have to be submitted to the Appropriate Authority (normally the Regional Joint Commissioner of Labour will be the authority) for certification.

The Appropriate Authority will call both employer representatives and employee representatives/unions and give a chance to the employee representatives to file their written counter statement. After hearing both parties, the authority will certify the Standing Orders after making the required changes, which will become the certified Standing Orders of the company.

Addressing Grievances

In case of any grievance over the Standing Orders, the Act contemplates that even a single employee can challenge any of the provisions and request an amendment.

It is always better to have our own Standing Orders suiting our requirements.
