Exactly mentioned above by Prasoon it applicable to industries not commerical establishment however in some state like Maharasthra & Gujrat etc Standing order Act is applicable on even commercial establishment.
Where the standing order act in not applicable then the Service Rules has to be prepared and same should be in complaince of all applicable statute.
Where the standing order act in not applicable then the Service Rules has to be prepared and same should be in complaince of all applicable statute.
Standing Orders can be drafted and got certified for any establishment other than a factory. Since Payment of Wages Act is applicable to commercial establishments not engaged in manufacturing the significance of Standing Orders is not restricted only to factory kind of organisation. Moreover, the Standing Orders being an official document defining the employee employer relationship, it can be applied to any kind of establishment wherein employees are hired and employed. Most of the reputed establishments registered under the state's Shops and Commercial Establishments have got their standing orders certified by the competent authority.

I agree with Mr. Madhu. Though not mandatory but establishments other than industrial units should have certified standing order as it helps in resolving employer-employee disputes. regards, Kamal
