This query is : Resolved
Sir/Madam,
I would like to seek help regarding my company's refusal (Medical Transcription company) located in Bangalore to which employment contract agreement is signed. The company is located in Bangalore and I work from home being home based job in Kerala. I had started working since April 1, 2014.
The issue is the company does not allow me to work since Sept 12, 2014 till date for reasons unknown. The only thing they asked me during these days is PAN card no. The company also send me FORM 16A prior to this. I had send a mail to them asking for reasons to which they responded by asking me to go for training on new platform for one hour starting from 4 p.m., which I agreed to. Even then, the company refuses to conduct training and rest of the day I am kept waiting. They used to provide me work and salary until Sept 12. After this date, no work and no salary. Daily they note my presence but not responding. I asked them specifically why they not allowing me to work and no salary despite being highly successful work status. They do not reply. I tried very much, but now I am asking lawyers whether under work employment contract signed by me and the company, can the company refuse to provide me work and salary without having any reasons? The company was more than satisfied with my work and no issues on that. It is now 41 days. I feel it is a prejudice. I need to find out what is going on inside the company?
I need suggestions whether I should file a law suit against the company for not providing me work and salary and whether I should file law suit in Bangalore or in Kerala or whether I should go for RTI? Will RTI allow me to know exactly what is going on and take legal action or should I file s law suit and seek COMPENSATION. The company has no right to refuse without assigning any reasons. I need suggestions and clarifications about this labor issue.
Refusal to work and denial of income as the only source of income is against equality at work. My work was good for the company and the company was very happy with it. Suddenly something is amiss in the company. Should I seek ombudsman? I don't know whom to approach. I need a quick response from anyone.
Guide me, please. Kindly send reply to my mail: sureshsd2006@gmail.com or saintsaint2014@gmail.com for suitable course of action.

One has to really go through the complete terms and conditions of the agreement entered into by you, before providing any satisfactory answer to your query.

I agree with experts, show the documents to a local lawyer. Nothing can be opined and advised without ascertaining/ analysing the terms and conditions of agreement.

Does the terms of the contract allow you to work from your Home in Kerala?

You have not mentioned the terms and conditions of the employment or job offer. Thus the query is termed as vague without proper details hence unfit for a reply.

I agree that documents pertaining to work contract can be given and the documents are quite large, so where do I post them or send them? Strict confidentiality must be maintained and considering whether a case should be pursued since it is 50 days out from work without any valid reason given by the company. They will not dismiss me nor provide me work nor provide income. I am stuck in no-man's land. the case is still not resolved. The company response is poor. Inform me.

You are required tro consult some local expert by showing your service related papers, if confidentiality has to be maintained.
