Forced resignation
6 months ago
When asked for leaves for treatment , I was forced to resign .. Can I file a case on wrong action , maligning my reputation and harassment
A.Dear Client,
An employer cannot force an employee to resign or terminate or fire on whimsical grounds other than disciplinary action for proven misconduct and such an action is considered as illegal termination and unfair labour practice. So in the prevailing situation, it may be suggested that if you are not holding the position of Manager/Supervisor but a workman as defined u/s.2(s) of the Industrial Dispute Act then for such an arbitrary and unfair labour practice, reach out to the office of the Labour Commissioner concerned for filing a complaint against the employer for redressal of your grievance failing which you need to file an application u/s.33C(2) of the I D Act before the concerned Labour Court claiming final dues from your employer. Otherwise, you have to file a civil suit before the Civil Court for appropriate relief in the matter. In case you need any legal assistance in this regard, you may contact our legal team for the purpose with relevant papers
