Imagine a company named "FineFabrics Ltd." located in Chennai, Tamil Nadu, which is facing continuous disputes between the management and the workers regarding wage payments and working hours. To resolve these disputes, the provisions of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 would apply, as the Act is in force across India, including Tamil Nadu. The company, the workers, and the trade unions involved would look to the mechanisms and procedures outlined in this Act, which has been in effect since April 1, 1947, to address their grievances and disputes through legal channels.
