Our office in a Delhi commercial building had a cleaner for almost two years. We weren’t satisfied with his work, so when we moved to a different floor within the same building, we decided not to renew his contract. He got upset and even went to the Labour Court, claiming we hadn’t paid him. He doesn’t have any paperwork. What should we do now?

In India, even without a written contract, an employee who has worked for two years can be considered a permanent employee. The Labour Court may rule against you if you cannot prove he was paid. It is advisable to consult with a lawyer to understand your legal options and protect your interests.
