Discrimination at work place
5 years ago
Hi,
I have recently joined an MNC at entry level. It has been approx. two months. I am hired on contractual basis. It is a customer service job and as per the offer letter it is a five day working. I started facing issues right from day two. These are issues pertaining to 1) Work place bullying 2) Discrimination.
I realized to the same generic question I was being given answers different from what others were given. Further, others got leaves even during no- leave period. Whereas I am required to justify my casual leave. Even if I applied 15 days in advance, my leaves stand disapproved. I have not availed any leave since my joining.
Further, at the time of salary negotiation I opted for a lesser salary package for lesser work load since I needed my composure for self-learning. But during training itself they changed the skill/ work to a more engaging role on orally communicated grounds of salary revision in accordance to the work load. We have not received any communication for the change of work. The HR is still not ready to see us even if we have asked for a group meet. Whenever we want to talk about OT they say it is ‘ business need’.
I have been doing Over Time right from the training period. I have done OT on four (alternate) weekends so far.

These kind of things usually do happen in many companies. Since you are still a junior level employee, have patience and talk to the management by apprising them about the issues you are facing from the company. Tell the management about the work place discrimination and about the terms and conditions of work they promised while joining the company and how it changed after you joined the company. I am sure they will resolve the issues. Have patience and you will get a way. At this point of time, if you want to take legal action against them while you are being still associated with the company, you may be removed from the company. Therefore, exhaust all remedies before coming to any decision of taking legal action against the company. However, if you still want to take legal action against the company, file a case against them at labor court of jurisdiction.
