What steps should I take if my salary is unpaid?

I was working in a government department on a contract basis for five years. October 2023 was my last working day in that office, and I have not received my salary for the month of September. When I tried contacting my employer, they didn’t respond properly. What can I do?

You can send a legal notice to your employer demanding payment of your due salary. If they fail to respond, you can file a claim in the labor court for recovery of unpaid salary. Legal action under employment laws can help you recover the dues along with any applicable interest. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
