Judgment & Decree

Settlement‑Binding upon parties‑‑Terminated workman arriving at settlement with employer and receiving agreed monetary benefits as compensation qua termination‑Subsequent petition to Labour Court challenging such termination, held, rightly rejected‑Parties, held, not permitted to revile from settlement. Ali Ahmad for Appellants. Wasi Ahmad for Respondents. There are 3 appeals against the order of Labour Court dismissing the applications made by the appellants under section 25‑A of I. R. O., 1969.

2. The three appellants were in service of the respondent. Their services were terminated. Aggrieved by this they approached the Labour Directorate, Mar Chughtai, the Conciliation Officer held the joint meeting wherein the parties entered into a settlement whereby the appellants were given certain monetary reliefs as compensation in view of the termination of their services and, therefore, dispute came to the end. The appellants, however, subsequently approached the Labour Court under section 25‑A of I. R. O., 1969. The Labour Court dismissed the applications on the basis of settlement. Aggrieved by this, the present appeals have been filed.

3. I have heard the Representatives of the parties and I am of the opinion, no exception can be taken to the impugned order. The parties had reached a settlement and it is binding upon them. The appellants cannot be permitted to resile from the settlement which was duly implemented by receiving the benefits. 4, in the result the appeals are dismissed.
