<\/span><\/h3><div class=\"aux-modern-heading-divider\"><\/div><div class=\"aux-modern-heading-description\"><p align=\"justify\">With the emergence of Trade Unions across Karnataka in the 1960s, Employers felt the need for an Organisation that can deal with the unions and their leaders on behalf of Management and balance Unions\u2019 influence by unifying employers and responding to Unions\u2019 actions. As the major aspects of economic development and social policies are Government driven in India, it provided a rationale for Employers in the State to ensure that policies and legislations did not adversely affect the rights and prerogatives of Employers, their business growth and development.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">In the then emerging industrial relations scenario, engaging in collective bargaining at the industry level was an important rationale for the existence of an Employer\u2019s Organisation and in its absence, collective bargaining was occurring largely at the individual enterprise level. This posed multiple problems and issues to industries at large. Having regard to the above factors, a strong need was felt in the minds of some of the Employers of Factories and Plantations to form an Employers\u2019 Organisation.\n\n<p align=\"justify\">At this juncture, in 1961, an incident occurred that accelerated the formation of an Employers\u2019 Organisation in the State of the then Mysore. A Vakalat was filed by a lawyer, Sri. G. K. Govinda Bhat (GKG) at the request of Mr B. R. Puttananjappa (BRP) on behalf of Yadalam\u2019s Textile Mills at Bangalore related to its labour law problems. The representation of the Mill by a legal practitioner was objected to by a Labour Union Leader citing Section 36 of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947. As per the provisions of the Act, a party to a dispute may be represented by a legal practitioner with the consent of the other parties to the proceeding. Alternatively, an Officer of an Employer\u2019s Organisation (EO) could represent the matter of Employee\u2019s Union as a matter of right.\n\n<p align=\"justify\">This incident gave rise to the formation of the Employer\u2019s Organisation, <strong>Mysore State Employer\u2019s Association in 1961<\/strong> with the coming together of ten employers from various Factories, Plantations, and the Hotel Industry. Sri. M. L. Manjunatha Setty, Coffee Planter of M\/s. Kumargod Coffee Estate was elected as the First President and Sri. BRP as the First Secretary of the Association. The main aim of the organisation is to protect the interest of Employers in the State of Mysore and to enable them to be represented by competent office bearers of the said Association before the Labour Court, Industrial Tribunal and Conciliation Machinery.<\/div><\/div>\n        <\/section>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-caa5cb0 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"caa5cb0\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"aux-parallax-section elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8db656b\" data-id=\"8db656b\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6c4d405 aux-appear-watch-animation aux-fade-in-up elementor-widget elementor-widget-aux_modern_heading\" data-id=\"6c4d405\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"aux_modern_heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"aux-widget-modern-heading\">\n            <div class=\"aux-widget-inner\"><h1 class=\"aux-modern-heading-primary\">GROWTH OF<\/h1><h3 class=\"aux-modern-heading-secondary\"><span class=\"aux-head-highlight\">Karnataka Employers' Association <\/span><\/h3><div class=\"aux-modern-heading-divider\"><\/div><div class=\"aux-modern-heading-description\"><p align=\"justify\">Due to the pragmatic and professional handling of the IR and Labour Law issues, the Mysore State Employer\u2019s Association was regarded as a guide by the Employers in the State and even appreciated by the Labour Leaders for their conciliatory role who then extended their cooperation to the association. The Officials of the Labour Department also commended the role and views of the Mysore State Employer\u2019s Association.<\/p>\n\n<p align=\"justify\">After the formation of Karnataka, the name of the Association was amended to Karnataka State Employer\u2019s Association and eventually Karnataka Employers\u2019 Association, as it stands today.<\/p>\n\n<p align=\"justify\">Thus, Karnataka Employers\u2019 Association grew over the years and went on to celebrate its Silver Jubilee and now its Golden Jubilee.
