ReplyDeleteClients won't pay to employer if their employees are not working from home during lockdown due to non availability of computer and internet. So how can an employee register a complaint against company for not giving salary as they are marked as non productive employees?
ReplyDeleteThe Supreme Court has also now ruled that employers have to pay the employees during the lockdown even if they are not able to work. There are many organizations which have made computers available to their employees for WFH, the onus is on the employers to enable WFH.
