I was retrenched from my job in Alwar without being paid retrenchment compensation — what should I do?

Retrenchment without compensation is illegal under Section 25F of the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947, and you can raise a dispute before the labour court in Alwar. The employer must pay 15 days' wages per year of service and one month's notice or pay in lieu. Disputes are adjudicated by the labour court with appeals to the Rajasthan High Court under Section 2-A. Employment in Rajasthan is also regulated by Rajasthan Rent Control Act 2001 governing the Rajasthan Shops and Establishments Act. Government permission is required for retrenchment of 100 or more workers. Approach the labour commissioner for conciliation before litigation.
