Mahindra's Punjab plant faces labour issues

Company says that their demands are unjustified and matter is in conciliation with the Labour Commissioner's Office

Mahindra & Mahindra, the country's largest tractor manufacturer, today stated that a section of employees are not reporting to duties in a concerted manner at its tractor manufacturing plants at Mohali, Punjab, which operate under its Swaraj division.

"Their demands are unjustified and matter is in conciliation with the Labour Commissioner's Office. The management is reasonably sure that better sense will prevail with this section of employees and the matter will be resolved amicably", the company said in a release.

There is, however, no loss of production as rest of the employees who are reporting to work are meeting the production requirements and catering to the operations of the plant.
