Late salary credit Late salary credit

3 months ago

I am a software developer and I work at this x company for more than 8 months. Only two time I was credited with my salary on time. My salary date is between 9 amd 12th of each month. But they pay our salary crossing 12th of each month leading to multiple disappointments. I am willing drop my paper and file a lawsuit against the company just to teach them a lesson.
Is there anything I can do to take action and how the action will be taken care?

A.Dear Client,
Delay in disbursement of monthly salary by the scheduled date cannot be grounds for a lawsuit against a company because there are numerous factors/reasons behind the delay including the clause of force majeure which is considered is a defense against liability. However, in case of habitual delay, you can make a complaint before the Lsbour Enforcement Officer(LEO) concerned for resolving the issue in the right way.
