Hi sir, I have joined in the company for four years contract basis initial period one year and extendable more three years as per project requirements and performance of the candidate. During the initial period, I was suffered with fever and took the rest for 15-20days with intimation of mail and phone communication. But now they found the 20 loss of pay in the initial period of one year contract and saying that your job not extended more contract year because you have LOP's in the last one year. But, I Informed to the office through phon and mail communication at that time and submitted the Doctor certificate also. But, now they are not extending my job. What can I do now? Is there any rights to fight with them legally. Plz let me know sir, I have all avidance/proof of documents for that loss of pay leaves. Company does not provided the sick leaves for contract basis employees. Iam not understanding what I have to do next ? Plz give me information.

Ans: Dear G

I can appreciate your situation, while you may have all the proof, however I would suggest avoid legal battle. Imagine even if you win the case will company people support you when you work with them.

Better part ways in good terms and seek alternative job.

All.the best.

Hello I joined private ltd. firm in October, 2024. The company has not provided me appointment letter and salary slip but credited my salary in my account. When I asked for appointment letter and salary slips the company just forwarded me mail on 20th January 2025 to handover the charge to other person without any notice to me which I did. Now they are not paying my December salary and January, 2025 full and final settlement. I was property manager in the company. Please suggest me what can be done in this case.
Ans: Your employer’s actions are unprofessional and unfair. You have legal options to claim your salary and final settlement.

Gather All Supporting Documents
Bank Statements: Show proof of salary credited for previous months.
Emails & Messages: Keep all communication with HR and management.
Work Records: Maintain any reports, client interactions, or tasks completed.
Company Policies: If you have access to any written policies, keep them.
These documents will strengthen your case.

Send a Formal Email Request
Draft a polite but firm email to HR and management.
Mention your pending salary and final settlement details.
Request a timeline for the payment.
Attach proof of salary credits and work done.
Give them a deadline of 7-10 days to respond.
Written communication creates a legal record of your request.

Send a Legal Notice Through a Lawyer
If the company does not respond, consult a labour lawyer.
A legal notice can push the company to clear dues.
Mention your job role, tenure, and pending salary.
Demand payment within a reasonable time.
A legal notice increases pressure on the employer.

File a Complaint with Labour Authorities
Private firms must follow labour laws regarding salary payments.
Visit the local Labour Commissioner’s office.
Submit a complaint with all supporting documents.
The department will issue notices and mediate with the company.
Labour authorities can legally intervene in salary disputes.

Consider Legal Action in Court
If all else fails, you can file a case in labour court.
Courts handle cases of unpaid salaries and wrongful termination.
A lawyer can guide you on the legal process and expected timeline.
Legal action is a strong step but ensures justice.

Finally
You have every right to claim your salary and final settlement. Follow a structured approach—start with written communication, then escalate legally if needed. Employers cannot deny rightful dues without consequences.
