Held. Dismissal of a workman for theft of employer’s property, as admitted by him, has been rightly upheld by the Labour Court whereas the learned Single Judge has erred in setting aside dismissal and awarding reinstatement without back-wages and the Division Bench also misdirected in upholding the order of the learned Single Judge hence the Supreme Court restored the punishment of dismissal of the workman.
Reinstatement of a workman guilty of theft, as duly admitted by him, has been rightly set aside by the Supreme Court since the employer has lost confidence in him.
