Under the Industrial Relations Code, 2020, Section 84 prohibits unfair labour practices specified in the Second Schedule. Which statement about who is bound by this prohibition is correct?

The prohibition binds employers, workers and Trade Unions alike, and it applies to a Trade Union whether or not it is registered under the Code. Registration is not a condition for liability for unfair labour practices listed in the Second Schedule.

  1. AOnly employers are bound
  2. BOnly registered Trade Unions are bound
  3. CEmployers and workers are bound, but Trade Unions only if registered
  4. DEmployers, workers and Trade Unions are bound, whether or not the union is registeredCorrect

Explanation

Section 84 says no employer or worker or a Trade Union, whether registered under the Code or not, shall commit any unfair labour practice in the Second Schedule. Therefore registration is irrelevant. The option limiting it to registered unions misreads the words.
