Non payment of dues Non payment of dues

7 months ago

My last working day was 4 Sept 2023 and I was issue relieving letter and our salary gets credited on the 7th of every month. My salary hasn't been credited and my manager is saying it will credit within 45 days fnf.There was nothing like this mentioned in my contract and since there was no HR at the time when I left,before resigning also the Manager didn't inform about this.The HR was terminated on 24 or 23 August but her salary has been credited. On asking about why her salary has been credited and not mine he said the HR didn't want any documents and only the salary as of now. I want to know is this a law? And if not how can I get my dues at the earliest. I was on probation period and my salary was 10000 per month.

A.Dear Client,
Employment laws and practices can vary by jurisdiction, and it's essential to consult with a legal professional for advice specific to your circumstances. That said, here are some general points to consider:

Contractual Terms: Review your employment contract and any company policies that were in effect during your employment. These documents may outline the terms and conditions of your employment, including the notice period, final settlement, and payment timelines upon resignation.

Notice Period: Some employment contracts specify a notice period that either the employee or the employer must provide before terminating employment. It's important to know if your contract had a notice period and whether you adhered to it.

Salary Payment: Standard practice in many organizations is to pay employees their final settlement, including any pending salary and benefits, on or before their last working day. However, this can vary from company to company.

Unpaid Salary: If your salary for the period you worked is unpaid, you have the right to request payment for the work you performed. In most cases, an employer should not withhold your salary without a valid reason.

F&F Settlement: Full and Final (F&F) settlement typically includes payment for pending salary, any unused leave balances, and other dues. The exact timeline for F&F settlement may depend on company policies and local labor laws.

Legal Remedies: If your employer does not pay your pending salary and dues as per the employment contract and applicable labor laws, you may consider taking legal action or filing a complaint with the labor authorities in your jurisdiction. Labor laws are designed to protect employees' rights, including timely payment of wages.

Consult an Attorney: It is advisable to consult with a labor or employment attorney who can review your specific situation and guide you on how to proceed. They can provide advice on your legal rights and the appropriate steps to take to recover your dues.
Thank you.
