Fifteen day's wages, In any factory it is well known that an employee never works and could never be permitted to work for all the 30 days of the month. He gets 52 Sundays in a year as paid holidays and, therefore, the basic wages and dearness allowance are always fixed by taking into consideration this economic reality ..... A worker gets full month's wages not by remaining on duty for all the 30 days within a month but by remaining on work and doing duty for only 26 days. The other extra holidays may make some marginal variation into 26 working days, but all wage boards and wage fixing authorities or tribunals in the country have always followed this pattern of fixation of wages by this method of 26 working days, Digvijay Woollen Mills Ltd. v. Mahendra Prataprai Buch, AIR 1980 SC 1944: (1980) 4 SCC 106: (1981) 1 SCR 64....

Inevitable accident
Inevitable accident, that which cannot be avoided: used in leases together with fire or tempest as a cause of destruction of the demised premises excusing the payment of rent or an omission by the lessee to repair. The expression is also very commonly used in covenants for production of documents, exempting the covenator from liability in the event of destruction by fire or other inevitable accident; but as pointed out by Mr. Davidson, Prec. Of Convg., vol. ii., pt. 1. P. 665, it is not accurate, for such accidents are not ineitable, and 'insuperable' is the better term. The word 'inevitable,' however, is used in the L.P. Act, 1925, s. 64(9), relating to the effect of an undertaking for safe custody and acknowledgment of the right to production of documents.As to ordering particulars of a defence of 'inevitable accident,' see Rumbold v. L.C.C., (1909) 25 TLR 541....
Workmen's Compensation Act
Workmen's Compensation Act. (English) The Workmen's Compensation Act, 1897, introduced the principle of compulsory insurance of workmen by employers in a restricted number of trades. The gist of a right to compensation under the Acts is 'accident arising out of and in the course of the employment' causing personal injury to a workman (Workmen's Compensation Act, 1925 [15 & 16 Geo. 5, c. 84), s. 1 (1)] The compensation is not damages for negligence or any other tort at common law or by statute (see COMPBELL (LORD) ACTS (Fatal Accidents Acts, 1846-1908) and Employers Liability Act, 1880, sub tit. MASTER AND SERVANT), and an employer is not liable both for damages and compensation; but the workman or his representatives may elect between the remedies, and in an unsuccessful action for damages the Court may assess or refer the question of compensation to the proper tribunal, subject to an equitable order for costs (Workmen's Compensation Act, 1925, s. 25). Compensation is not payable for a...
