Common Employment Issues

Many disputes arise from missing paperwork: no appointment letter, unclear notice period or an unsigned policy. A written, fair agreement protects both sides. Post-employment non-compete clauses are generally not enforceable in India under Section 27 of the Indian Contract Act, 1872, although confidentiality and non-solicitation terms can be drafted carefully.

Labour Laws and the New Codes

India’s four labour codes, the Code on Wages, the Industrial Relations Code, the Code on Social Security and the Occupational Safety, Health and Working Conditions Code, were brought into force from 21 November 2025 and replaced many earlier central laws. Rules and procedures continue to be notified, so we check the current position before advising. See our labour law page for more. You can read our practice notes on these codes in our legal content library.

POSH Compliance Support

Every workplace with ten or more employees must constitute an Internal Committee. We help employers set up the committee, prepare the policy and conduct the inquiry in the way the Act requires, and we advise complainants and respondents on their rights.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can I do if my employer has not paid my salary or dues?

Send a written demand and keep records of your appointment letter, salary slips and bank statements. Depending on the facts, you may send a legal notice or approach the labour authorities or the court. An advocate can advise on the right forum.

Can an employer terminate without notice?

It depends on the contract, the type of employee and the applicable law. Many terminations without proper notice or process can be challenged.

Is a non-compete clause valid after I leave?

Post-employment non-compete clauses are generally void in India under Section 27 of the Contract Act, but confidentiality obligations can still apply.

Does my company need a POSH Internal Committee?

Yes, if it has ten or more employees. Smaller workplaces fall under the Local Committee route.

Do you represent employers and employees?

Yes, but never both sides in the same matter.
