A. Dear client,
An employer cannot threaten you to terminate your contract of employment. This amounts to vicitimisation and is also an unfair labour practice. We would advise you to file a complaint before the concerned labour commissioner

A. Dear client,
The question of dual employment does not arise as till 11th July you were working for the previous employer. Employer A should deduct the pro rata amount PF Contribution up to 11th July from your salary and Employer B should deduct the PF Contribution from the salary w.e.f. 12th July onwards and both employers should deposit their respective PF contributions with the PF authority accordingly

A. Dear Client,
In the given situation, if you can prove that the company is fake then the condition of the agreement is not enforceable being infructuous otherwise for breach of terms of contract /agreement, the company can claim compensation towards damages or financial loss from you for breach of contract and non-completion of assigned job within the time frame. However, in case of any dispute, you may reach out to the office of the concerned Labour Commissioner for redressal of disputes.

A. Dear Client,
Few conditions are considered as implied if it is not expressly mentioned in an agreement or contract. So if the Company can prove that breach of condition of bond or contract of employment caused a financial loss equivalent to the demanded amount, the employee has to accept that demand otherwise ignore it. Nobody is indispensable in an organization and no financial loss is attributed to an employee if he or she left the Company before he agreed time for a better career. Further, w ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
The provisions of the Evidence Act are not applicable in the complaint case made before the Consumer Forum where disputes are being tried in a summary manner, following the principles of natural justice, save and except the ones laid down under sub-section (9) of Section 38 of the CPA, 2019. Unnecessary technicalities deter an individual consumer from approaching the consumer fora, thereby frustrating the objective of the Consumer Protection Act.

A. Dear Client,
In the absence of reason/ground behind the firing by an employer from employment, it is difficult to suggest the ways or remedies for claiming compensation. From the insufficient details of the query, it is not clear whether you are terminated, retrenched, dismissed or laid off by your employer. Both complaint and Compensation vary on the nature and grounds behind the firing. However, whatever the ground for firing, you need to file a complaint against your employer for victimizatio ...ReadMore

Any breach of condition of the contract of employment from either side makes liable or responsible to each other to face the consequences for breach of contract. In the prevailing situation, having so many grievances against your employer, you need to file a complaint before the concerned Labour Commissioner w ...ReadMore
