I worked at a BPO company in India back in October 2015. I made a mistake on a call and used inappropriate language with a customer. Unfortunately, the company’s Vice President, who was also the owner’s wife, overheard me. The owner then confronted me, physically assaulted me, and verbally abused me, even threatening my family. I was too afraid to report this at the time. Now, they’re refusing to pay my salary. I still have my employee ID card from that company. What can I do about this situation?

You can file a police complaint against the owner for physical assault, verbal abuse, and threats against your family. You can also file a complaint with the Labour Department for non-payment of salary. The employee ID card serves as proof of your employment.

I was selected for a job in 2005, but received my appointment letter only in 2014. The delay was unexplained, despite the vacancy advertisement specifically mentioning a special recruitment drive for backlog vacancies of Scheduled Tribes and Scheduled Castes in 2005.

I joined an e-commerce company in June 2015 and left in June 2016. Despite sending numerous emails, they refused my salary claiming I didn’t provide notice.

The plan involved outsourcing services, with the option for employees to move to the new vendor. Initially, in February 2016, I was told that my role wouldn’t be affected and I’d help with the transition. However, I was later asked to participate in interviews with the new vendor, suggesting a potential move. After the interviews, with no updates, I was asked in May 2016 to either resign or accept redundancy.
