My family hired a young woman, older than 14, to help with our baby. Now, the police are accusing us of child labor. I thought it was legal to employ someone over 14, especially since she didn’t do anything dangerous. What should we do?

Even if the young woman is older than 14, employing a minor for domestic work is illegal in India. You need to consult a lawyer immediately. They can advise you on the legal implications and potential consequences of employing a minor for domestic work.

Next Article I joined a new job on December 7th and resigned on March 3rd, but I didn’t have to complete a notice period because I hadn’t worked for three months. Out of courtesy, I stayed an extra week to finish up paperwork and hand over my work. My resignation was approved after I completed everything. The problem is, the company hasn’t paid me my February salary or the few days I worked in March. I call them every day, but they keep giving me excuses or don’t pick up the phone. I’m not getting paid, just excuses. Can I take legal action?
