sir/madam,
i was working in a pvt. ltd. concern of repute, and i was appointed on 1st of may, 2008 and without giving me any chargesheet and noticing me about the termination of my services 14 days before completion of my probation period.
in the appointment letter, it was mentioned that you are appointed for a period of three months and your probation could be extended by three more months upto one year of your joining this company. but no any second /third or fourth letter of probation was issued to me. i was terminated on the false grounds that my work was unsatisfactory, 14 days before completion of one year of my service period, i.e. on 17th april, 2009.
plz guide me what is legal and illegal in this. i have also filed a case in this matter in karkardooma court.
thnx

Dear Mukesh,
You have a strong case. But what is important to understand is What you want to achieve.
Do you want the job...if yes.....fighting a case will further deteriorate your relation with company. Would you like to work in a company where everone dislikes you.
well, they have already written in your termination they are not satisfactory, what else do you want them to write. Chargesheet etc etc is so good to here...but happens with few select companies and with all Government organisation, if I am not wrong.
You really need to evaluate all angles and just not yours side. Speak to colleagues at your office and find out the cause. May be a give a visit to the management staff to discuss you case amicably. May be you will get a clue if its worthwhile to fight this long battle.
All the best,

No good and professionally managed company terminates any employee without any valid reason.
Its no point taking this case to the court, since on probabation an employer can extend or terminate the services on the basis of performance standards of the employee. Since it is not permanent employment, I feel your case may not win, if it is taken to the court. Also, what you stand to win, may impede your further career prospects. Since the next employer may likely to verify your case with your previous employer and he may not be sympathetic to you, if he comes to know that you can go to any extent to do to save yourself.
Ofcourse the law of the land is favoring to the employees and this true only to the permanent employees of the organization.
Before taking to any drastic step, do consult your family members, a good lawyer for further action.
