Claim under workmen’s compensation act against insurance co.

Sir,
My humble submission before your good selves is that During the course of employment with owner of vehicle-Tata 407, a driver died due to burn injuries as the vehicle caught fire suddenly on the way while driving. A claim has been filed by widow before Labour court under workmen’s Compensation Act against the owner of the vehicle. The Owner has taken defence that Insurance Co. is necessary party as vehicle was insured. During proceedings, Insurance Co. has been made as respondent No.2. My query in this case for which I need guidance is as to whether Insurance Co. can be held liable by labour court.

Undue claims by an employee.

We had asked a worker to vacate the free quarters allotted to her in our coffee estate, as it was required for new worker who is from a far off place and no house, whereas the worker in question has a house nearby. We have not retrenched her but asked her to come for work commuting from home. She has served for 4+ years, and we have purchased the estate 3yrs 8months ago. Total regular employees in the estate is only 5 now, it was max 8 earlier.
Now she is not prepared to vacate the house, but demands provident fund, leave salary, gratuity etc. We have been giving addl one month salary as bonus and leave salary as per their attendance every year. We also let weekly holiday.
Our lawyer says she is not entitled for any more payment and she can be evicted through legal process. What really are the options before us?

Notice period

Hi Sir,

I have resigned from my MNC organisation last week and serving a notice period of 40 days. As per appointment letter, its states....3 months of notice period or salary in lieu of it at sole discretion of management.

I told them, I will pay salary for short fall of notice period but my VP is saying you have to serve the 3 months notice period, they wont be taking salary in lieu of it.

I replied them in writing that, i will not serve notice period more than 40 days , i am ready to give salary for it.

please advise.

1) what would be the future implications, if they wont accept 40 days period with salary in lieu of rest of the days.



2) if after 40 days, i will not come in his company and will joing new company, can i get the relieving from current employer.

Appreciate help of seniors on this.

Technical resignation regarding.

Kindly notice the following facts before my query:
1.I was working in the capacity of JTO in BSNL as permanent employee since year 2007.
2. I applied for permission to appear in the Indian Engineering Services Exams 2010 (Conducted by UPSC) through proper channel but didn't received any reply in the same matter.
3. After Passing the Exam and receipt of joining offer letter from Indian Railways, I applied for technical resignation and NOC along with it cleared the dues to the department.
4. Since i had very short time(just 15 days) in hand to join the Railways after receipt of joining letter i requested the BSNL officers to issue me NOC urgently.
5. Again they didn't respond to the request and asked me verbally to join the Railway and rest of the procedure will be running simultaneously after receipt of letter for Service conditions transfer and Bond transfer from railways on my behalf.
6.Now after 8 months of my application BSNL has sent one letter asking clarification from railways that how the candidate has been allowed to join the railways without the receipt of NOC and relieving order from BSNL.
My query is whether there is any rule regarding the time limit and conditions for the acceptance of technical resignation?
An employer can how long keep pending the application seeking the permission to appear in exam. like UPSC.
Since i have submitted the technical resignation and BSNL has taken long time to issue NOC, i joined Railways by giving them undertaking to submit the NOC later on. Am i liable to any departmental proceedings?

Deficiency in service

Dear Experts

Your valued advice required on the following issue:
I have sent a letter to my friend through SPEED POST on 27th July and till date it is not delivered to the addressee, who is residing in the same state. Contrary, the department has shown the same to be delivered it to the addressee on 1st August, which is false. I have logged a complaint through their web based grievence redressal system on 7th Aug, but no response from it till date.
Should I file a suit for loss/damage sustained or go to consumer forum for deficiency of their service.
N:B: documents attached for perusal.

Release from the department

Sir,
I am a central Govt. employee working in a Group 'B' post. In 2010 I had applied for a Group 'A' post on deputation basis with the approval of my Departmental Head. After completing the complete selection process through UPSC I finally got selected. Now, my departmental head is not ready to relieve me. MY Cadre unit is DOPT and they are ready to relieve me but my department where I am posted are not ready to relieve me knowing the fact that this involves my career advancement. I have filed a case in CAT. The case is due to be heard. Kindly recommend me some similar cases where the decision has been made in the favor of the employee.
