You can terminate an employee by giving the notice pay as per the contract of employment. But if the employee to be terminated is an employee coming under the definition of workman you should refer the Standing Order provisions and the Industrial Disputes Act. Following the ID Act, no workman shall be terminated without following the section 25F of the Act. There should be sufficient cause for such termination and it can be made only after informing the Labour Officer. An establishment employing 100 or more workers should also get permission from the government before initiating such termination. However, for termination for misconduct after following the due procedures, no compliance of ID Act is required.
