During the services, management never provided legal facilities like appointment letter, wages slip, leave book, attendance card, annual and festival holidays, ESI & PF etc. When the claimant demanded all the above mentioned legal benefits, the employer immediately became angry and in a spirit of revenge, without paying the earned salary to the workman from 01.08.2019 to 02.09.2019, without prior notice, without any notice charge sheet, without any rhyme and reason, claimant were illegally terminated by the management on 03.09.2019.
