An incident happened on my site last night. When a company staff went to the market for his personal work, two workers of our plant threatened him and pushed him back.

Today when I asked those workers about yesterday's incident in front of the PM, union in-charge, and the victim staff, they termed the entire incident as false.

Please advise me on what action we should take against the workers involved in this incident.

If there is no complaint, there is nothing much you can do. In case a victim complains, you can inquire into the circumstances and advise all concerned to avoid a breach of the law. Attacking company staff outside company premises is a violation of the IPC and can lead to a police case and investigation, etc. The victim will have to lodge a police complaint, and the company can offer support as the fight has arisen out of a company work dispute.

You cannot take disciplinary action relating to an incident of misbehavior that happened outside the place of work - that too after working hours unless there is such a provision in your standing orders.

Agreed with Mr. Umakanthan, but in my opinion, you have to take care of all these because only the HR department in the company who takes care of all things of its employees. If I were in your place, then surely I would conduct a meeting to understand the reality and counsel the person involved in the incident. All factory employees are our family, and HR is a guardian. So, as a guardian, we must teach them whenever they require it and also have the right to punish them. Because most of the time of his life, he spent with the company, so it's our prime duty to behave like a family. Because everywhere we see rules only, we have to think about humanity as well.
