Employee /grievances /disputes/ proper redressal

Hi,

You can file a complaint with the labour commissioner in your area. If you still feel that your grievance is not being addressed, you can directly approach labour courts.

In India, certain central and state specific labour laws require the employer to adopt certain grievance redressal mechanisms at the workplace. These are internal methods (within the company) to address employee grievances.

In addition to internal channels, employees can also look into the external methods of grievance redressal. Indian labour laws also provide for a list of acts which are construed as unfair labour practices on the part of the employer, for which the employee can raise an industrial dispute. In such situations, workmen can approach the labour courts and industrial tribunals for resolving their industrial disputes.

The Industrial Disputes Act, 1942 is the main legislation for investigation and settlement of all industrial disputes and has provided provisions for unfair labour practices both by employers and workmen and their respective trade unions. Another important state law that provides important legal safeguards for workers against victimization and persecution at the hand of their employer and protecting against various unfair labour practices is the Prevention of Unfair Labour Practices Act, 1971.

I hope this answers your question.

Have a good day!

Thank you very much, sir. this was very much helpful to me
