Termination without any proper reason Termination without any proper reason

5 years ago

Dear Lawyers,

I want to know that what kind of legal penalties we can charge to the employer. If suppose any employee is been terminated from the company without any valid/ strong reason behind it and the terminated employee is not ready to accept the termination then what kind of legal action we can take against the company and what penalties they have to pay to the employee.

Employee can proof that he/she is been terminated without any proper reason. So when he/she can take action and on what grounds they will be penalized?

Awaiting for your guidance.

A.A private employer can terminate your employment at his pleasure and the established principle of Law is that one cannot be forced to employ some one whom he doe not like, reason being irrelevant. However, if you are working in any company which is even partly a 'state' then your employment is protected.

A.Since details regarding whether you are serving probation or any notice period is not given, am assuming it does not apply in the current situation. In that case, depending upon the years of service in the present organization, the position etc., the affected person can sue the organizaiton and demand termination benefits. The terms and conditions of the offer letter will also provide for the case. If the termination can be proved to be without a proper reason, reinstatement into the same position can also be claimed.
