Request for the adjournment:

If the work man concerned requests for the further time on reasonable grounds then another enquiry data should be fixed and conveyed.

Nominee of the accused work man: if the work man concerned requests for further time if the charge sheet employee would like another employee to represent and assist him in the conduct of his defence, the enquiry officer should allow this. However, it is left to the discretion of the management to allow a non employee union official to act as a nominee of the work man at the enquiry.
