One of my friend, working with a company has been terminated at the spot by the company’s chairman,with no warning letter, no show cause notice, i mean nothing relevant and supportive to termination,infact no termination letter has been issued, its basically a verbal termination. My question is it so a company can do so. While she is on probation period its only 2 months she is working with the company. What are the steps, procedure that employee can follow yo safeguard her interest. As she is married and have alot of responsibility on her shoulder’s like baby’s fee and her mother father are dependent on her. Can anyone please help on this she is worried for her coming monthly expenses...she has everything with her like offer letter, appointment letter, attandance for the 2 months
One month and 7 days salary pending with the company...
Kindly confirm the steps to be followed and the rights she possess...
Regards

What are the terms and conditions of the probation period? Verbal termination will not be in order. But is the person ready for a legal battle?

It is better to look around for jobs while giving a legal reply to the company challenging the termination.

Yes, she is ready to fight a legal battle against the company. Besides, the notice period mentioned in the appointment letter is 7 days during the probation period. However, I mean no warning letter and no non-performance letter.

Dear Colleague,

Any termination during probation must comply with the conditions stated in the letter of the contract. Such verbal, sudden termination, on the face of it, is illegal, unjustified, and very much in bad taste. You must fight it out legally by engaging a good lawyer well-versed in employment laws (of the USA?).
