No equal pay for daily wager and regular employee: SC

A daily wager cannot claim salary equal to that of a regular worker even if the two are discharging the ‘same functions’, the Supreme Court has ruled in a landmark judgement which supercedes its earlier, almost opposite, stand on the issue.

The principle of equal pay for equal work will arise "only if there is complete and total identity between the two persons similarly situated so as to grant equal pay for equal work," a Bench of Justices A K Mathur and Markandeya Katju observed.


Holding that its earlier view that if two persons were discharging same functions they were entitled to same wages was no longer applicable, the court said, "Even if a daily wage employee is discharging the same functions as a regular employee the authorities are not bound to grant equal pay to such a person." The court said the case of a regular employee and that of a daily wage worker was on a different footing as the former is always appointed through a selection process and his services are permanent.


The apex court gave the observation while quashing an order of the Punjab and Haryana High Court which had affirmed a trial court order directing equal pay for some daily-wage tractor drivers on par with the regular drivers working for the Punjab government.


The state government had challenged the lower court's direction by filing a petition in the apex court.

Good day, sun shines!
There have were times of hardship when I felt unhappy missing knowledge about opportunities of getting high yields on investments. I was a dump and downright pessimistic person.
I have never thought that there weren't any need in large starting capital.
Now, I'm happy and lucky , I begin take up real income.
It's all about how to select a correct partner who utilizes your money in a right way - that is incorporate it in real business, parts and divides the profit with me.

You can ask, if there are such firms? I have to tell the truth, YES, there are. Please get to know about one of them:
