We are a registered apartment society since 1987 in Hyderabad , Andhra Pradesh.
we have 3 employees working for an apartment of 40 flats.
we have 2 lady sweepers and 1 man to manage the water supply(morning 2 hours , electricity and maintenance collection( once a month) rest of the time he is a watchman. these 3 people currently have been working with us since 12 years with a mutual agreement for their salaries without any written agreement or contract. now these 3 people have been threatening the society that they will go to the labour court if they are not paid bonuses since their non-contractual agreement with us 12 years back.
we have 1 security guard on contract with other private firm for night time. in total we pay salaries for 4 people.
but our primary concern is for the 3 people employed by society for the past 12 years.
1) are we bound to make any bonus payments to these people as a registered society for apartment?
2) how are their number of working days calculated. they work all days in a month but do take leave when they needed. watchman takes lunch break for 3 hours in afternoon and sweepers have no work after 4 hours of their morning work.
2) can we remove these people from work immediately or do we need to follow any procedure?
3) if possible can you let me know the minimum wages that these people need to paid by a society as per Andhra Pradesh labour laws ?
regards
