Cutting of salary and savings on the name of penalization

Salary is to be paid by 7th/ 10th of each month and any violation thereof attracts penalty and fine.

Neither your company can hold your salary nor they can reduce the salary as per their wish and not even for the reason stated by you above. 

You may send a letter under acknowledgement demanding the salary.

Issue a legal demand/notice through a local prudent lawyer professing service matters.

It is believed that your relationship is of employee -employer with Consulting Firm.

Confirm!

Have you signed on any agreement, clause on deduction of 5% of wages, every month by employer or non payment of wages for some specific reason or to square off  in some specific cases?

Does employer issue salary/wage slip every month?

Do employer show deductions in salary/wage slip every month?

Has employer not issued any memo/written communication, before deductions and/or blocking payment of earned wages/promised payouts?

Have you asked for thesed in writing and has employer issued any written communication for deductions and non payment of wages/promised payouts?

Is it stated anywhere in writing and accepted by you that you are responsible for payments or Aadhar card, bank detail and other few issues of trainee candidates?

Since you have posted that you have been doing your job honestly and are not responsible, have you posted it to employer in writing under proper acknowledgment?

Do you have irrefutable written record/evidence of your stand?

Due to what reasons you feel that Co-workers won’t get positive results from cases fied by them?

Have you shown the case file to a very able local counsel of unshakable repute and integrity specializing in Labor/service matters?

Has the counsel opined that they are NO merits in the similar cases filed by other employees?

Apparently your employer is ‘Consulting Firm’.

It might be covered by the Shops & Estbs Act of the state and you might be covered by the def. of ‘Employee’ as in the Act.

You might be covered by the def. of ‘Workman’ as in the ID Act.

You might be covered by the ‘Payment of Wages Act’ by def. of wages in the Act. This Act does not discriminate between ‘Workman’ and ‘Non Workman’.

The deductions, fixed daty for payment of wages are explained in applicable enactments.

These enactments should be available at website of Dept. of Labor of your state e.g;

The Punjab Shops and Commercial Establishments Act:

The Punjab Shops and Commercial Establishments Rules ( Haryana Follows it.)

Payment of Wages Act;

are available on website of Dept. of Labor Haryana;

https://hrylabour.gov.in/staticdocs/labourActpdfdocs/Payment_of_Wages_Act.pdf

If you are not covered by any of the enactments then you may approach civil courts.

It shall be appropriate to discuss with local counsel and understand merits in your case.

Dear Mr. Ritesh,

Thanks for your encouraging reply,  The organization has not paid me salary for four months, I lost my patience and given following mail to finance department.

Dear FMA
Please ensure to transfer all my due salary and expense within this
week only otherwise may be afterwards I will not able to cater my
professional services for ALC Inida. This is for your information and
necessary action please.

CEO of the company has given following reply.

Dear Sharad, 

Dear Sir,

Your suggestions is eye opener for me, I observed that most of the communication management is doing by orcal communicaiton, they are not giving any written notice of salay delay or withhold like here under I am forwarding the reply of CEO when I asked for my 4 months pending salay. 

Dear Sharad, 

It is surprising that CEO is answering without referring to its official record.

If salary is processed, salary slip is generated, salary is disbursed then he/she could have attached/mentioned the docs pertaining to payment of salary/details of disbursment.

Then in one breath CEO has alleged underperformance, misconduct by employee (you) and team members (your team), irresponsible behavior, antagonising language, arrogance…………….

CEO is telling "I am not worrried if people will court against me"

Where is it written, by CEO?

The CEO is writing to you as some Team Leader.

You have not replied to any point raised.

The forums that you and your team can approach  has already been posted.

Dear Sir, you are correct I have already submitted my following clarification on the same. and he accepted the same.  Regarding the CEO statement  "I am not worrried if people will court against me" he mentioned in staff monthly meeting and which is not recorded in minutes anywhere. 

Dear KG
I am really surprised by getting this kind of hyperactive mail from
the knowledgeable person like you.  I realized I had gone through from
such mail in my past, and after putting pressure on my brain I
remembered that same kind of mail I got from Mr. Pradeep Gauda (PPL),
when I asked him the farmers money for red gram procurement. He
mentioned in his mail that your supplied goods (red gram) were not
good quality so if I have money then I will pay for it. After reading
your mail for a moment I felt that I am the poor vulnerable farmer of
Kodangal mandal FPC, who is begging for his sweat money.

You mentioned that you are tolerating my underperformance, asked Mr.
Sarat since one and half year (before completing my 3 years) I
requested him to give task base job- I want to work as Associate and
he repeatedly denied it. If I am underperformance why this privilege?.
If you remember, I am the person who compelled people to resign
because of their underperformance, I expecting same treatment for me
also. You have mentioned about team performance, I think with small
team I have done wonderful job, most of my &  team energy is going in
firefighting and you are well aware that I am not responsible for the
fire. Mr. Linton successfully translated 90% invalid data into valid,
I drag out work from him even his marriage days and he supported for
it.     Regarding to get down at ground and fight, the struggle and
fighting is in my blood but I don’t want to waste it for meager cause.
I am unable to understand what arrogance I have shown in my 2 line
mail. Same mail I am repeatedly writing to NSDC & other clients for
our due money, they also have to react like you.  Considering my
economic condition and present financial requirements it’s really not
possible for me to wait 3 to 4 months for salary.  I don’t think I
have written anything wrong. You are treating that by asking for my
salary I have done a crime and now I am like criminal for you.
As a friend I would like to advice you please don’t drop such a mails
which only darken doubts, confusion in the mind the consultants about
the intentions of CEO and organization, it’s not good for the health
of organization. Though you are thinking I am wrong, I would like to
apologize for my mail.
