‘Maruti Suzuki won’t tolerate indiscipline’

Suzuki chief Osamu Suzuki on Friday took a tough stand on the labour standoff at Maruti's Manesar plant, saying the company will not accept "any indiscipline". In his first reaction to the problems at Manesar, Suzuki told representatives of the company's recognised workers body that there will be "no compromise on discipline".

"Indiscipline is not tolerated... not in Japan, not in India. It is never in the interest of any company and its people," Suzuki told representatives of Maruti Udyog Kamgar Union (MUKU). Production has been erratic at the Manesar plant since August 29 as the company sought a 'good conduct bond' from workers to control indiscipline in production and quality. It has so far suspended and dismissed 21 employees, while starting some production at the troubled plant, and nearby Gurgaon factory, by using senior staff and other temporary workforce.

The latest production interruption is the third in three months at the Manesar factory. Maruti had stopped operations at the plant for 10 working days in June due to a strike by workers, who were demanding recognition of a new union and reinstatement of some sacked colleagues. In July, it stopped production for a day due to a strike by some workers. Earlier last week, company chairman RC Bhargava said workers who refused to sign the good conduct bond would not be allowed to work.

Suzuki had come to India for Maruti's annual general meeting and also travelled to Gujarat, where the company is understood to have zeroed in on a new factory. While he has met the state's chief minister Narendra Modi, a formal announcement is awaited only after Maruti's board clears the proposal. The trouble at Manesar comes at a bad time for the company as the plant is used to manufacture one of its blockbuster model Swift. The car, whose new version recently hit the market, now has a waiting backlog of nearly 90,000 units and dealers are reluctant to take on new orders until the situation on production becomes more stable.
