Posting on behalf on my female colleague
I am working at Delhi in a Private organization. My company has branch in Chennai with ~ 4000 man power. Delhi has man power of ~ 500.
I joined the company with the offer at Delhi. But now I want to go to chennai due to family constraints. I asked for transfer to my manager, they denied. Hence I asked for permission to work from chennai for 2 weeks and manager agreed.
Now they are asking to come back to Delhi, which I denied and I keep working from Chennai. My HR issued a showcause notice asking me to report to Delhi, else I will have to serve notice period kinda.
Kindly advice how to safeguard her.

There is no legal transfer from the company, hence working at different location without official communication is not legal. Hence it is better to answer the show cause by checking up with appointment letter & company policies.

Ji, in my view, even now if you say, they won't agree as there may be some employees like you with same or some other issues and if one is considered to change location/indirect transfer, others will trouble them. so private organisations do not take up this procedure.

You have the only option to join Delhi if you are interested to continue your present job.
