Now a days at corporate level compnies have invented lots of ways to keep employee away from the benefits of labor law. For example in pharma industry Medicals representatives are given designations as Sales officer, Field officer, Territory Manager etc.It is so because these people should not get any benefits under labour law.
My question is that whether an employee can file a suit independent of company for his harassment. If yes then what are the remedies . How to record or proof the harassment.
Example XYZ Companie's manager ABC is harrasing UVX who is a employee.in this case can UVX file a case against ABC.

Yes, civil suit for damages always lies irrespective of their designation.

First of all such employee should resort to departmental remedy available in such type of matters failing which he can definitely exhaust his legal rights to protect his rights as a common man of this country.
