Breach of employment contract
15-Apr-2023 (In Civil Law)
I was fresher and worked in an IT company 4 years back. I have signed an agreement in that company which stated I have to serve in that company for 3 years.If I fail to serve, I have to pay 1,50,000 INR.
Actually I have worked in that company for 45 days. As a fresher I was not trained by the company.I was directly forced to work.I had spent more than 12 hours in a day at office.I was pressurized by the company since I signed in agreement, I was asked to work at very tough situations which made me to fall in sick.
Due to that I was hospitalized for more than 1 month.After that I left IT dream and doing agriculture
Now Company is saying that they have sent letters which I have not received since I am in a remote area
Now the company sent a letter from a lawyer which is stating that I have to pay 2L immediately.
Otherwise they will initiate legal action in court.
If the company file a case on me what will be the legal issues ill face
Dear Sir/ Madam
Well done I understood your problem, most of the corp orates are getting these type of agreements to get it signed before giving induction. I dont know what are the conditions imposed. you have not stated whether you have been made in the company role or not. whether any on the job training was given to your end or off the job. I understood from your words that you have not been given on the job training while you were in service. You have worked and you have been paid. Further you have left the job due to your personal physical illhealth and due to heavy pressurized work load offered that too beyond a period of 8 hours daily. Therefore you need no worry to pay any compensation. The company has no Locus standi to demand such an arbitrary amount from your end.
