A. Dear Client,
Sundays and other public holidays should be included in a notice period, unless the terms of employment clearly indicate that the expression “full day “ in the notice would include only the working days, excluding Sundays and holidays. The notice period is the time period between the receipt of the letter of resignation from the employee and the end of his/her last working day. This time period has to be given to an employee by his employer before his employment ends. The normal ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
When you already met the demand of the Company for submission of spot resignation without serving the required notice period. they cannot withhold the issue of your relieving letter for an indefinite period without any valid reason which may be considered an unfair labour practice if the matter is litigated before the appropriate authority/court. Further, Section 73 of the Contract Act, 1872 makes provision for unliquidated damages. Section 74 deals with liquidated damages and no c ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
Furlough leave is typically a temporary leave of absence that is granted to an employee because of the special circumstances of an organization. It is an unpaid leave of absence. Furloughed employees usually retain their jobs, but furlough does not entail compensating the staff, nor does end employment. Furloughs are temporary halts to work. Employees retain their jobs and benefits but do not get paid for the said leave, Simply a leave without pay. In the absence of any stipulation ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
When everything went verbal from your appointment to your resignation, you got no ground to litigate your grievances against the Company. Moreover, the Company has already conveyed a charge of absconding from the job which itself forms a ground of misconduct followed by disciplinary action against the errant employee.

A. Dear Client,
An employer cannot withhold the salary or dues of any employee bereft of any reasonable ground. So, in the prevailing situation, 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 after serving a legal notice to the Company, reach out to the concerned Labour Court for filing an application under Sec.33(C)(@) of the I D Act claiming dues receivable from the Company.

A. Dear Client,

Since there was no signed contract, it might be difficult for the employer to legally enforce the demand for compensation. If you worked for four days, you may be entitled to compensation for those days under labor laws in India. It's important to have records of your work hours and tasks performed during those days. The claim for reimbursement of computer and electricity costs may be disputed. If there was no prior agreement regarding these expenses, it could be challenging for th ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,
Unless a person has been formally arrested by the police, he/she cannot be held in custody . If the police summon someone for questioning, they must conduct the interview promptly and efficiently and discharge the person once intergation over. When you were called on
at the Police Station for interogation or questioning and released you after an hour, it puts no stigma in your criminal record. So, you may answer "No" in the attestation form.

A. Dear Client,
No, neither it is legal nor it is possible. Once you tendered your resignation following the terms of the offer letter and are released from your assignment by the Company, they cannot transpose or transform your resignation into termination because the relationship between employer and employee gets severed/seized on the issue of release letter on acceptance of your resignation from the Company. However, if any arbitrary and unethical action is taken by the Company, reach out to th ...ReadMore
