I would like to explain the circumstances that led to my resignation from my previous company. During five internal promotion cycles, I verbally applied for promotion each time but was repeatedly asked to "wait." Instead, promotions were granted to employees who were close to the supervisor, without any transparent or fair selection process. I raised this issue with the Operations Head, but my complaint was ignored. Before resigning, I requested copies of my complete salary slips. However, HR provided salary slips for only the last three months, and even those contained incorrect information. I had been offered a salary of ₹13,000 plus a ₹1,000 shift allowance, but the salary slips reflected ₹10,100 as net salary and ₹3,900 as "incentive." In addition, a supervisor frequently misbehaved with several employees. When I objected to his conduct, he questioned my performance, while employees favored by him committed similar mistakes without facing any consequences. Other employees were also publicly harassed. Due to the biased promotion practices, ignored complaints, incorrect salary slips, and workplace harassment, I resigned after serving my notice period. In these circumstances, can I file a formal complaint against the management, and what legal remedies are available to me?
If you have evidence such as emails, messages, salary records, appointment letters, witness statements, or copies of complaints made to management, you may file a formal grievance against the employer. You can raise issues relating to incorrect salary records, unfair labour practices, non-provision of employment documents, and workplace harassment before the appropriate Labour Department or competent authority. However, promotions are generally governed by company policy unless discrimination prohibited by law can be established. Preserve all relevant documents and seek legal advice to assess the strength of your claims and the appropriate forum for relief. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
