Coming to boys, boys were made to work for 12 hours which never been told us at interview only 9 hour shift been mentioned and one hour break which was never given to non smoker boys only it was being given to smoker, and worst part in state call Goa is whoever complaint against same company to labour court goa the same person use to get terminated on a next day for silly reason and there many other bad habits of that CEO which going to add this writing may go long so that's it.
Now whoever left the job without notice period of 1 month before they mention 2 month have got show cause notice letter at address stating that we need to pay one month salary to the company according to act shops and establishment 1973, and also legal action been taken against us.
Please help us what to be done .
Letters Been sent to more then 50 people now we made a group of 15 people including girls and boys from goa remaining few boys and girls from manglore.
Please suggest the steps for the letter which is sent at our adress or to fight against that CEO of company.

It is depends on the offer letter or service contract you had from the company,it may be mentioned one month notice as you said.Seems the company was liberal to relieve you early ( may be they have their own reasons for not letting to serve the notice period) with pay.

it is doubtful that company will take legal proceedings to recover one month salary . legal expenses will far out weigh the recovery of 1 month salary dues . you ought to serve the notice period as mentioned in your agreement with company

Ignore the letter or reply it through a lawyer. Any legal action from the company is unlikely.

Best do as best advised by Respected Adv. Barman all of you who have issues with CEO should come together and serve notice to him for any other help you can take help of Police or his higher official but collectively taking a stand will be proper in this particular situation

Even in my opinion, the company may not go ahead with the proposed legal action, they may just issue a notice to give a threat so that if somebody who is frightened may pay back the demanded amount. In case of notice, you may give a proper reply.
