I worked at a young company for a few months without a formal agreement. When I left, the CEO promised to pay my final salary but has only paid a part of it. He’s also been rude about my work. I have emails documenting his promises and his behavior. Is there anything I can do to get the rest of my salary, considering it’s been months since I left and I’m now working elsewhere?

You can file a claim in a labor court demanding the remaining salary. The emails documenting the CEO’s promises and behavior can serve as evidence. The court can also consider the CEO’s rude behavior as a breach of employment contract, even without a formal agreement.

Many companies are now including gratuity in the CTC (Cost to Company) package. This leads to a question: if it’s part of CTC, shouldn’t employees receive it with their final settlement even if they leave before completing the standard 5 years of service, as per the Gratuity Act? How do companies justify holding back gratuity if it’s considered part of the overall salary package?

I’ve been working at a private company for the past four years. For the last year, I haven’t received my salary or other wages. Everything was fine when I joined, and I even got a 10% raise in April 2013 for my good performance. But after 2014, the company started facing financial problems, and our salaries were delayed by two to three months. In April 2015, things seemed to get back on track, and we received all our pending payments. The company started functioning normally again. However, financial issues resurfaced in July 2015, and salary delays started once more. The last salary I received was in August 2015. Since then, I haven’t been paid. Is there a government authority (like a labor or employee helpline) I can contact for help? Or do I need to take legal action?
