Thanks

The question is whether both the Companies know that you are working for 2 companies simultaneously?
Vir 11 June 2018
Its actually from past. Person has left both of those companies already but is thinking to get a document from both companies in writing now. I spotted this group while surfing so posted comment here.

Still you have not answered the query.
Whether both the Companies were aware that the person was working for 2 companies simultaneously?
Vir 11 June 2018
Yes they both know, just confirmed.
R.Ramachandran (Advocate) 11 June 2018
Then what is the issue now?
Vir 11 June 2018
Hi,
In future if some future employer asks about 2 jobs in parallel, is that going to be an issue legally.Can future company see it as an illegal activity on the employees part?
Thanks for responses!!

Valid point.. She doesnt have explicit document stating that on paper...So wondering even if that is needed as she is not working for both employers anymore. She will ask if there is any legal rule in labor law that may create problem for her.

And relate what is prescribed, enforceable and relate with what has happened…

In case person has drawn salary from both establishments ( parallel employment) and has been issued with appointment letter, salary slips, Form16, PF, ESIC numbers, service certificate, relieving letter then IT is matter of record…
If both employers have not objected despite knowledge then why to invite objection now!
If both establishments are willing to affirm in writing iwth favorable response then Get IT ASAP!
