Employer not paying salary
1 year ago
My working office is a call centre and in January month i worked for 14 days and resigned and they are refusing to pay salary. What should i do now?
A.Here are some general steps you can take to try to resolve the issue:
Check your employment contract: The terms of your employment, including your notice period and pay entitlements, should be stated in your employment contract. Review your contract to ensure that you are aware of your rights and obligations.
Contact your employer: Reach out to your employer and try to have a conversation with them about the issue. Explain the situation and request that they pay you the salary that you are owed. Keep a record of any correspondence with your employer, such as emails or text messages.
File a complaint with the labor department: If your employer is still refusing to pay your salary, you may be able to file a complaint with the labor department in your jurisdiction. They may be able to assist you in resolving the issue and may also have the authority to investigate and take action against the employer.
Seek legal advice: If you have tried to resolve the issue with your employer and the labor department, but have not received satisfactory results, you may want to consider seeking legal advice. A lawyer who specializes in employment law can advise you on your legal rights and options, and may be able to assist you in taking legal action against your employer.
Consider alternative dispute resolution: If legal action is not an option or if you would prefer to avoid a formal legal process, you may want to consider alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation or arbitration. These methods involve a neutral third party who can help you and your employer reach a mutually agreeable solution.
Thank You

A.Hi client,
If you have worked for 14 days, then you should be paid. But before, suggesting anything else, i would advise you to let an advocate review the terms and conditions and then proceed with a legal notice followed by a civil case.
