Message: <blockquote data-quote="HRA" data-source="post: 5524880" data-attributes="member: 6136">thanks bro,yes there are active main 11 acts and laws in sri lanka. but machan they are not adequate?or may be not practically?for example The preamble to this Act states that it is an Act for the prevention,investigation and settlement of industrial disputes. Although the preamble refers to the term “prevention” of industrial disputes, the mechanism under the Act does not have anything concrete for prevention of an industrial dispute. The dispute settlement mechanism such as conciliation, arbitrationetc set out therein are procedures which need to be followed after an industrial dispute has arisen. Therefore, the dispute settlement mechanism under the Act pre-supposes the existence of an industrial dispute and merely lays down the procedure that needs to be followed with regard to settlement.This reflects a total reactive approach rather than being proactive.so machan controversy in my head is that how should we overcome these kind of negative aspects of the laws in sri lanka without striking the balance between the protection of employees and the flexibilty sought by the emplyers.coz we know that 99% of these laws meant for the ordinary employees rather than the employers</blockquote>
