I’ve been working at a private company for the past 20 months, with a 2-year bond. My bond ends in December. However, my company is refusing to release my original certificates and relieving letter despite my request. They also haven’t updated my PF contributions for the last 5 months, despite deductions from my salary. What are my options, considering I have outstanding payments and allowances?
Best Answer
You have grounds to take legal action against your company. Under Indian law, employers are obligated to return original certificates and issue relieving letters upon completion of the bond period. You can file a complaint with the Labour Commissioner, seek legal advice, and consider filing a lawsuit to recover your certificates, unpaid PF contributions, and outstanding payments/allowances.
