High Court overturns salary cut for regularised daily wage worker

The High Court issued an order nullifying a salary reduction that had been applied to a daily‑wage worker after his employment was regularised. The court found that the cut violated the terms under which the worker had been converted to a regular status. By striking down the reduction, the judgment restores the employee's full remuneration as originally agreed. Legal experts note that the decision reinforces protections for workers who transition from casual to regular employment, ensuring that any changes to pay must comply with statutory and contractual obligations. The ruling is expected to serve as a reference point for similar disputes across the country.
