• Mentally harassed and misled by managers

I am software engineer. I filed a complaint against my lead and Manager because of them i lost my peace of mind(having lack of sleep, mental stress, back pain etc.) because of that i am away from my work almost 3 months that is till date. Because of this i filed a case against them in my company with proofs but company has rejected by saying "The panel has reported that allegation made by you is unjustified and hence we are dismissing your complaint."

The main reason is that i supposed to get confirm in 6 months but one lady was having problem with me(mainly ego problem). They changed my team after my complaint against her but her influence is that she is not getting my confirmation done. In new team new manager clearly told that you are doing good and all are happy with your work. But even though after the year they have not confirmed me.

For the above statement i have audio recording where my new manager clearly told that i am doing good.

Even i shared the recording with inquiry panel the panel is saying that "allegation made by me is unjustified and hence we are dismissing your complaint."

They are not even providing the reason that why my confirmation is not done till date and they are forcing me to work in the same team where i lost my peace of mind.

Because of them my career is spoiled and i am running out of money because i am not getting salary.

Please suggest me what to do next so that i can teach them the lesson what company is not doing against them because they are old members of the company

Sir you can serve a legal notice to the company and can further register a complaint with the labour commissioner.

Further in the notice you can seek damages.from the company for mental harrasment and problems you are going through.

you should resign from company and search for alternative job 

 

2) you have not been confirmed for period of one year and you  have lost your peace of mind 

 

3) it does not make sense in continuing working for said organisation where your work is not appreciated

1. The courts cannot direct the private employer to confirm an employee, but as an employee you have the right to be paid your salary at the scheduled time.

2. You may serve a lawyer's notice to the company to pay the arrears of salary, and if the salary is still not paid then a suit for recovery of money can be filed.

You can enumerate the grievances in a piece of paper, draft a complaint against the persons/employees who torture or harass you in the office, submit the complaint to the top management seeking its intervention and relief from all such tortures.

If the management if not cooperating or taking any action then you may approach high court with a writ petition seeking its intervention for a relief and remedy to this issue.

If you feel that the decision taken against you is not acceptable and your representations are not being considered, you may issue a legal notice demanding your claim, however you may have to face the repercussions, be prepared for that.
