Termination from Job
2 months ago
I would like to ask you that if I ask to my manager for coming late on shit in person when we were outside office premises and after taking that permission I went late to office and I was terminated saying that you were given a verbal warning that if come late you will he given q warning letter and they gave me termination from my job when I was in real need and there was no complaints from my manager for my work.
If you face termination from your job, the established procedure mandates the issuance of a show-cause notice and the conduct of a domestic inquiry to ensure the principles of natural justice. According to the model standing order under the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946, habitual late attendance is considered misconduct. Typically, a single instance of late attendance warrants a warning, not extreme disciplinary action. Such harsh measures could be deemed illegal termination. If you qualify as a workman under Sec.2(s) of the I D Act, consider sending a legal notice to your employer, filing a complaint for illegal termination with the Labour Commissioner, or raising an industrial dispute directly with the Industrial Tribunal to seek reinstatement and back wages.
Thankyou
For any termination from a job a show cause notice must be served to an employee and a domestic inquiry is required to be held on the charge leveled against the employee following the principle of natural justice before taking any type of punitive action against him based on the inquiry report. Habitual late attendance is misconduct as per the model standing order under the Industrial Employment (Standing Orders) Act, 1946. So late attendance merely on a single occasion normally attracts a warning letter but that does not attract capital punishment which is harsh in comparison to misconduct and such an action on the part of the management may be termed as illegal termination from the employment. So, in the prevailing situation, if you are a workman as defined under Sec.2(s) of the I D Act. then, serving a legal notice to your employer/company, 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 directly before the concerned Industrial Tribunal under Sec.2A of the I D Act seeking reinstatement in service with back wages. Or else an employee who is holding the position of the manager/supervisory category 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 and for taking suitable steps against illegal termination from service.
