The Dunlop Factory Employees Union and the management are to go for a State Government-mediated conciliation to arrive at a final settlement.
According to the official spokesperson for the union, the leaders and office bearers of the DFEU representing the workers at Dunlop India Ltd Ambattur factory called off the indefinite fast demanding that the management expedite the final settlement.
The union withdrew the agitation after the management agreed for talks mediated by the Tamil Nadu Labour Department. This followed the intervention of the Labour Department officials who have asked the management and union to discuss the issues. The discussions are to start from the month-end.
The main point on the agenda would be the amount to be paid to the 734 workers as a final settlement to terminate their services and payment of statutory dues to the retired employees. The management is also expected to settle the issues relating to payment of interim wages due to the workers after the factory stopped production in October last year, the union leader said.
