Non payment of retainer as External member on POSH


14-Nov-2023 (In Labour & Service Law)
I am retained by Emerson Electric Co. (India) Private Limited as external member on the Internal Complaints Committee for Sexual Harassment. However, they never seek any of my services. Never ask me to address their team or themselves. Now their HR has changed and last I spoke to her I clarified that the service has to be generated from their end, I am available 24*7. Now they have not cleared my payments for last 2 months and she is writing humiliating mails like I am unable to justify the payments with no tangible services. I am also worried that the company is making no effort to use my services in today's day and age.

This is my response to you: 1. This is really wrong attitude by the company; 2. If they have appointed you, they may have given you a appointment letter; 3. Irrespective of utilising your services, you must be paid your salary; 4. You can take legal steps and send them a legal notice; 5. Your lawyer can narrate the incidents and the terms of the appointment letter; 6. Consult a local lawyer and take steps.
