Declared absconding and termination after maternity leave

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 08 August 2023 This query is : Resolved
One of my relative was under maternity leave and then asked for extension in the leave period via mail which was granted by the employer. Further she has again taken an extension but this time it was made verbal to her supervisor although her husband has personally met with her supervisor and informed about extension of leave and expected date of resuming the Job. Later when she has gone to the office before the verbal communicated date of joining it has came to the knowledge that she has been marked absconding and terminated. When she asked for any communication been made then HR has shown mail which was marked to one of the mail id which is not used in general by her but no call from his supervisor or HR been received neither any notice in physical been delivered. Although verbal communication to her supervisor was there and proof is also there that her husband has visit the branch and met with his supervisor and call details of the employee with his supervisor but no call recording. Please Suggest for termination revocation.

The termination of her employment without giving her notice as per law is illegal and invalid.
She can issue a legal notice demanding reinstatement and then approach labor court with an application or high court with a writ petition if she is not coming under labor laws.
