Radhika Thirumalai A. Vs. Hindustan Aeronautics Limited

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Jul-21-1995

Reported in: 1995(2)ALT699

ORDER1. Common law does not oblige an employer to provide appointment to the dependents of a deceased employee. Even the Constitution of India does not specifically oblige any employer to provide compassionate appointments to the legal heirs or the dependents of the deceased employees. In other words, no dependent of an employee who dies in harness can claim compassionate appointment as a matter of right unless a scheme is framed by the concerned employer either under a Statute or in exercise of its executive or administrative power providing such appointments. However, in consonance with the concept of Welfare State, in recent times, the employers both in private and public sectors have evolved schemes providing for compassionate appointments to the legal heirs and the dependents on account of the untimely death of an employee in harness. Accordingly, in the present case the management of the respondent company had evolved a scheme by way of an executive act providing for compassionat...
