Salary hold for Dec-17 and later on terminated without pay

You can send a legal notice to the company through a lawyer.

Dear Sandy,

After working for 18 months they can not simply terminate your services with out giving notice.  Pl check your appointment letter and I opine that there may a minimum of one month notice clause.  In case of probationer they can to some extent, as far as non-performance they need to communicate regularly, give time & training support to improve hence better to write a mail / letter to senior management, send a legal notice.

Ans-Yes,

Notice pay; Apparently you have not posted all/full etxract from appointment letter pertaining to Notice pay..........The Extract posted by you does not refer to reason posted by you in your query...

Non performance/under performance is not misconduct ro any reason declared by employer (as per extract posted by you) for termination without notice and/or notice pay .

Termination: You have posted that you have been performing. The employer has terminated due to Non performance and declared you incompetent  If you have record of performance/competence then you may point the variance and contest..

Standing Orders; It is in your interest to find out, inquire and confirm.

Power to sanction  etc ; Do you recommend or do you sanction? Can anyone amend/change/cancel your recommendations/sanction?

CHeck if the office of establishment at your location is registered by State Shops & Estbs Act and you are covered as per  def. of 'Employee' in the Act.

If the FnF statement is supplied to you and IT does not have computation of notice pay, leave encashment you may write under proper acknowedgment mentioning IT as incorrect and raise you demand to supply you the correct one showing dues payable to you.

To a surprise I got a terminatation mail on 9th Jan-18 stating non performance. Now they have refused to pay salary of 40 working days (1st Dec 17 to 9th Jan-18)and 15 days leave encashment. I have sent a mail for clearing my dues upon terminatation but they are simply refusing and replied on mail that, ........" As per terms of employment, the company holds the right to terminate the employment without any notice on account of non-performance or incompetence in discharge of duty" Please note my salary was 95000/month. Kindly guide me what are the option available to recover atleast my working days salary if not for notice days pay. Regards

As per your posts you may ask for wages till LWD, notic epay, leave encashment, etc etc ...

and ask to call back the termination order.....
