Employment in company
3 months ago
A company terminated 4 employees before one week of salary who were on pip performance improvement plan .for not doing any sales or generating revenue now
Company is not paying salary that we are in need .they are saying. After 90days fnf will be done .but it is doubtful and that they will pay. Is their any law. In which we can get immediately salary .
A.Dear Client,
There can really be only two outcomes after a PIP: either the employee meets their goals or they fail to do so. If the employee is successful, then they will likely stay with the company and further their career. But if they fail to meet their goals, then they will most likely be terminated from the job. The Company cannot hold back your salary for more than 90 days it's illegal and can be challenged in court and by any chance if they hold your salary than, Typically, the employee is required to send a legal notice demanding payment of dues to the employer. If the employer refuses or fails to do so the employee can initiate legal proceedings against the company. As per order 37 of the Civil Procedure Code, you may file a summary suit before the District Court.
Thankyou

A.Dear Client,
An employee either on probation or regular employment is governed by the contract of employment i.e, an offer letter issued by the company at the time of joining. In this situation, you need to review the terms and conditions of your offer letter carefully to find out whether the action of the Company is or are contradictory to the terms of your contract of employment. In case you find any deviation or violation of any terms of the contract that makes the working environment toxic, you need to bring the matter to the notice of your higher authority either through written application or through email. A performance improvement plan (PIP), also known as a performance action plan, is a tool to give an employee with performance deficiencies the opportunity to succeed. On the other hand, termination for unsatisfactory performance may qualify as retrenchment – i.e., the termination of an employee/ worker for any reason other than by way of disciplinary action, then they are to be given at least 1 month to 3 months prior notice and payment in lieu of notice of termination in compliance with the mandatory provision of Sec.25N(1)(a) of Industrial Dispute Act, 1947 provided the employee is a workman as defined under Sec.2(s) of the Act. In that situation, you need to serve a legal notice to your employer/company and file a complaint against them for illegal termination before the concerned Labour Commissioner for redressal of your grievance failing which you can raise an industrial dispute before the concerned Industrial Tribunalyou under Sec.2A of the I D Act and apart, you can file an application u/s.33C(2) of I D Act before the concerned Labour Court directly claiming entire dues including your unpaid salary payable as compensation toward illegal termination. Or else an employee who belongs to the manager/supervisory category, then he has to pursue a civil suit before a Civil Court for redressal of his grievance. Reach out to an Advocate for serving legal notice to the Company for unethical and unfair trade practices and for further guidance and steps in the matter. If you need our expertise services, you may contact our legal team for the purpose.
