Hello sir,
I work in Railway, one of my colleague (female) have been misbehaved and abused by our office in charge. She was going to lodge FIR but we stopped her saying that there must be some other way to deal with such a situation. Even all the office staffs are ready to witness the incident before police. Please advice what can be done in this case lawfully.
thanks

Are the employees of a company who are of executive level, covered under labour law? Can they file complaint under prevention of unfair labour practice act?
If not then what are the remedies for them?
In the present case some employees were asked to resign. Full and final settlement was done. But variables and bonus are not given. 3 of them jointly wants to take legal action against the company.
Kindly advise.

Hello Experts,
I need urgent attention to below given matter.
I left an Pvt Company registered in Delhi and office in Noida where they agreed to relieve me by mentioning INR 1,08,000 /- (Short Notice period money + Training Bonds amount ), signed by me and I have handed over cheques to them for the same amount as per details mentioned in short notice period recovery notice. No break-up of liability was mentioned in due letter and only sum was there.
I was chasing this company to seek my Exp, NOC letters etc but didn’t get any response over phone call for next 11 days after cheques hand over ( handed over on 14th Sep 2007) and during one call made to HR to ask for letters required by next employer including break-up of liability, I got to know that they are preparing to send legal notice to me. As they were not issuing any break-up of how this much needed then I decided to stop cheque payments and notified HR person by email and call.
Below given is the email which was sent by me to inform about cheque payment stop:
***********************************************************
Hi , ,
I have observed that the declared amount by you to be paid against short notice period is high. The amount to be paid should be less than the conveyed amount.
I request you to send me the letter for the final amount to be paid with break up. For the mean time please don't deposit the handed over cheque to for the amount INR 54,000 /- dated 15 Sep 2007 and INR 54,000 /- dated 20 Sep 2007. Please confirm that do I need to pay the full month salary or only basic salary for the short noice period.
I have requested my bank to stop these cheque payment.
After getting final amount letter to be paid from , I will hand over fresh cheuqe for the amount to be conveyed. The cheque is only stopped because of discrepancy in sum of the payment to be made by me to as per the letter issued by you.
Regards
********************************************************
After few months, I received a legal notice from this company asking INR 5,00,000 for loss in project and replied from my side mentioning same amount to be payable for my mental stress and suffer caused in absence of requested exp and NOC letters due to them.
After few months ( ~1 year) of last working day with this company, I received court Civil suit copy where they asked for INR 14,00,000 for “Short Notice period money + Training Bonds amount + Project loss which was participated by me” but Employment agreement only says for 2 months notice period and no clause to share/bear project profit/loss.
I would like to get experts view on this considering Due letter signed for INR 1,08,000 /- , cheques handed over but no break-up was given stating leave balance etc..:
1. Can employer ask for higher amount than INR 1,08,000 stated in due letter as they didn’t give me break-up. Delhi Shops and Establishment act says Employer needs to settle balance Annual Leaves in employee account during employee’s exit but they didn’t consider this?
2. Can employer ask for full Bond amount even if Employee has served some period for that bond. I saw few rulings by HC and SC asking to consider training bonds on prorate basis by considering served period out of total period?
3. Can ignorance of law when due letter was signed takes over any law/policy. In my case if I signed letter to give INR 1,08,000 /- when was not aware about Leave settlement and Training Bond rulings then it cant be considered now and base is only INR 1,08,000 to talk further?
4. Does court considers mental suffer of defendant party on such matters where contract or conditions are always put in favor to employer and employee has to sign considering circumstances?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Sir,
Pay revision was implemented in a company for the period from 01/08/2000 in July 2014 along with pay revision arrears benefit form 01/10/2008.The process of fixation and arrers computation were completed and amount of arrears payable to each employees (including retired employees) were arrived in December 2014.During the time period of 01/10/2008 to 31/12/2014 more than 12 employees from the company were retired, resigned or relieved.Most of these employees had closed their EPF Account also and withdrawn the entire PF balance in their account by themselves.(the company does not have any control on this).
Now, these employees are demanding for the employer portion of the EPF contribution also along with the arrears amount on the argument that had the proposal been implemented during their service tenure, ie between 2008-2014,they would have got the employer contribution of the PF portion of the of the arrears amount also.Is their argument valid and should the company liable to pay the employer contribution part of the arrears amount also to those retired employees?.If so,is it possible to remit the same to the EPF Department in the name of the respective employees whose account is no more in existence with the EPF department?

Is it mandatory to provide proof of visiting home town in case of availing Home Town LTC? Suppose the nearest railway station is situated in a different municipal area from the declared home town( for e.g. Howrah in case of Kolkata) is it mandatory for the claimant to produce a document to office as a proof of having visited home town even if railway tickets for journey from Hqrs. to the nearest railway station of home town has been provided to office? May the experts provide their valuable opinion in this regard.

Dear Sir,
I was working for a consultancy which is in Delhi and through them I was deployed at their client location Pune University.I worked for them from 7th Nov 2013 to 28th April 2014.
I was resigned from the company in month of April 2014 and was released from the service on 28th April 2014. But till now they have not processed my April'2014 month salary.
I continuously send the mail and contact them after April 2014 but they had not given satisfactory answer.In July 2014 they told me that they have not receive my name in report of April 2014 from Pune University People.So I contacted pune university and ask them to send the report again with my name.They send the report (I am having mail of same) in August to consultancy inspite of that they have not processed with my salary inspite of they got the salary of me from pune university
Consultancy people again come back to me and told me that they need a new work order for me.
They are not contacting pune university telling me to get work order.I again contacted Pune university they told me that from their side everything is clear to consultancy.
From last 10 months I keep contacting my consultant but they are not replying with a satisfactory answer and also they are not contacting with Pune University people regarding my issue.
As per my understanding I am a employer of consultancy and so they need to take all responsibility of me inspire of that they are not processing my salary.
I am having Appointment letter , experience letter and relieving letter of consultancy which clearly stated about my experience details as "This is to certify that Richa Tiwari has been working with Neelkanth Digital Infonet Pvt. Ltd at
University of Pune since 07-Nov-2013 to 28-April-2014.She has been relieved from the services of the Company and obligations with effect from the close
of working hours on 28-April-2014.".
I am in Pune and in appointment letter it is written "It is agreed between the Parties agree that only the appropriate Court in Chandigarh shall have the
exclusive jurisdiction to entertain and try any suit or matter in dispute between them relating to this
Agreement."
Please Sir suggest me what should I do to get my salary ? What action should I need to take ? It is not possible for me to go to Delhi or Chandigarh as I am in Pune ?

Harassment by employer
1. I appeared in entrance examination conducted by BSNL for the post of JTO in the year 2002. For which final year students were also eligible provided they were in possession of their final degree marksheets on or before 31/07/2002. But my marksheets were delayed. I was in possession of my marksheets at the time of declaration of results by BSNL which was declared on 16/09/2002. I was denied appointment by BSNL on this ground.
2. I approached in Hon’ble High Court, New Delhi in Dec-2002. Got judgment in my favour in Jan-2004 (CW 5181/2003 dt. 13/01/2004) (1)
3. BSNL appeal Hon’ble High Court bench, New Delhi. Bench upheld the judgment passed by single learned judge in Feb-2004 (WA 245/2004 dt. 27/02/2004 ) (2)
4. BSNL appealed in Hon’ble Supreme Court. Hon’ble Supreme Court admitted the case without granting any stay on the Hon’ble High Court Bench, New Delhi order. But still BSNL did not appoint the applicants. (Civil Appeal 4835/2005 dt. 30/01/2008) (3)
5. In 2008, Hon’ble Supreme Court pronounced judgment in my favour. Thereafter joining formalities were implemented by BSNL. But rather implementing Court order from retrospective effect, BSNL implemented it prospectively thereby treating me as fresher.
6. Now to come at par with my batch mates I again approached Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi for following:
a) My Seniority and salary at par with my batch mates.
b) eligibility to appear in departmental competitive exam for which 3 yrs length of service is prerequisite (Since all my batch mates joined in year 2002 batch. Hence they were eligible)
c) eligibility to appear in Management Trainee examination for which 4 yrs work-experience is pre-requisite (Since all my batch mates joined in year 2002 batch. Hence they were eligible)
d) functional upgradation which are provided after 4 years of service. Presently my batchmates are in grade E3 and I am still in E2.
7. In 2009, I Filed Court case in Hon’ble Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi regarding length of service, seniority and other benefits at par with my 2002 batch-mates (OA 2854/2009 dt. 03/06/2010)(4)
8. In 2010 Hon’ble Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi pronounced judgement partially in my favour. I was granted seniority and pay-fixation at par with my batch mates (point 5.(a)). But denied length of service which was required to appear in various promotion competitive exams for which my batchmates of 2002 batch were eligible. Judgement was silent on point 5.(b) and denied my entitlement for point 5.(c).
9. To implement the Hon’ble Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi orders issued in point 7, I had to file contempt after 6 month of judgment (5) (CP 956/2010 dt. 18/01/2011)
10. To challenge the length of service, I challenged the Hon’ble Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi orders to limited extent in Hon’ble High Court Bench, New Delhi. Hon’ble High Court Bench, New Delhi passed order to approach Hon’ble Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi again as there was no clarity on the issue. (6) (WP(C)-8704/2010 dt. 15/09/2011)
11. I approached Hon’ble Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi again in 2011 and got judgment in our favour in 2013. (7) (OA 116/2012 dt. 08/01/2013)
12. Again to implement those order, I had to file contempt in 2014 Hon’ble in Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi. (8) (CP 487/2013 dt. 17/01/2014)
13. Additionally, I filed caveat in Hon’ble High Court, New Delhi to avoid one sided stay to BSNL on Hon’ble Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi orders. (9)
14. BSNL challenged the Hon’ble Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi order in Hon’ble High Court, New Delhi and their case was rejected at the time of admission itself. (WPC 7175/2013 dt. 20/11/2013) (10)
15. I filed caveat in Hon’ble Supreme Court, New Delhi to avoid one sided stay to BSNL again. (11)
16. The Hon’ble Supreme Court, New Delhi admitted the case without granting any stay on Hon’ble Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi orders. Hence BSNL implemented Hon’ble Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi orders but not in totality. (civil appeal 3805/2014)(12)
17. In contempt petition Hon’ble Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi directed that applicants will submit their representations and BSNL to consider our notional joining date as joining date for all practical purposes with liberty to revive the contempt.
18. As BSNL was not granted stay order by Hon’ble Supreme Court, BSNL implemented Hon’ble Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi judgment but denied us functional upgradation at with 2002-2003 batch which is due in every four years on the plea that our length of service is less by 6 years.
19. I have again filed an MA in Hon’ble Principal Bench CAT, New Delhi for reviving the contempt. (13)
Now, My question pertains to whether I am entitled for harassment case against my employer and under which rule. Since I have to approach Court of law for each right. So many cases have put a lot of mental and financial pressure on me. I have to approach Court of law 13 times to claim my rights out of which 2 are still ongoing). Pl suggest and help what action should I take.
All judgments from 2008 are available on respective court websites
