Dear All,
One of our employees was terminated 10 years ago, and all the benefits had already been given to him. However, after 10 years, he raised industry disputes under section 2(A) to the conciliation officer. Now, my question is, can an employee raise a dispute against the company after 10 years? I am seeking your assistance in this matter.

Employee can raise any dispute at any moment, but whether to entertain it or not is a government authority call. Once it is entertained by government authorities, then the employer needs to object before government authorities with relevant documents/evidence.

After the amendment to Sec. 2A of the ID Act, 1947, effective from 15-09-2010, no dispute under this section can be raised by the workman about his non-employment by way of discharge, dismissal, retrenchment, or termination by the employer after the expiry of 3 years from the date of such termination.
As the effect of this amendment is mandatory and not directory, such time-barred claim should be dismissed in limine by the authority concerned without waiting for the objection, if any, to be filed by the employer.

Dear Sir,
First of all, thank you all for your valuable suggestions.
Could you provide me with an electronic copy of the amendment to section 2A of the ID Act? We have received a letter from the labor department citing section 2A, regarding a termination that occurred 10 years ago. In this context, we would like to present the conciliation officer with a copy of the amendment to section 2A. Kindly provide me with the same so that I can address the case in my favor accordingly.
Thank you.
