Commercial establishment
Commercial establishment, in the definition of a Commercial Establishment in s. 2 cl. 3 of the U.P. Shops and Commercial Eastblishment Act, 1947, the clerical and other establishments of a factory to whom the provisions of the Factories Act, 1934, do not apply, are included in the connotation of that expression. It is true that the reference in the definition by which clerical and other establish-ments of factories are included is to the Factories Act of 1934, but by virtue of s. 8 of the General Clauses (1987 10 of 1897), it must be construed as a reference to the provisions of the Factories Act LXIII of 1948 which repealed the Factories Act of 1934 and re-enacted it.

Management, (1968) 1 SCR 742: AIR 1968 SC 554: (1967) 2 Lab LJ 720 to mean 'any business or any work or any project which one engages in or attempts as an enterprise analogous to business or trade'. The dictionary meaning of 'establishment' as given in Webster International Dictionary includes inter alia 'an institution or place of business, with its fixture and organised staff;as, large establishment, a manufacturing establishment'. 'Establishment' therefore means the whole trading, business or manufacturing apparatus with a separate identifiable existence. This apparatus which is used for the purpose of carrying on trade, business or und...
In connection with the work of an establishment
In connection with the work of an establishment, 'in connection with the work of an establishment' only postulates some connection between what the employee does and the work of the establishment. He may not do anything directly for the establish-ment; he may not do anything statutorily obligatory in the establishment; he may not even do anything which is primary or necessary for the survival or smooth running of the establishment or integral to the adventure.
