A.Dear Client,
An employer can not withhold the salary of an employee without any valid reason and in the absence of any such condition in the contract of employment which amounted to unfair labour practice. So in the prevailing situation, reach out to the office of Labour Commissioner concerned for redressal of your grievance by making a complaint against the Company for the unjustified action that proves unfair labour practice on their part. In case your Company falls under the purview of the Shops and Establishment Act then you need to visit the office of the concerned Chief Inspector, Shops & Establishment for redressal of your grievance failing which you need to file an application before the concerned Labour Court u/s.33C(2) of Industrial Dispute Act, 1947 claiming recovery of dues from the employer. However, in case you need any assistance in the matter of drafting the complaint or raising a dispute under I D Act before the Industrial Tribunal or under the Shops and Establishment Act, you may contact our legal team with the relevant papers.
