Dear Experts, I am working as an AVP at a MNC Bank. I have been subjected to humiliation, mental and sexual harassment from the time I joined. I escalated several times. Due to this, the HR schemed with the senior officials and did an unfair appraisal. I was being forced to either accept the rating or take a showcase.
I was unlawfully confined to a meeting room and threatened for almost 3 hours.
I had to call at 100 to seek help. They let me go subsequently.
I escalated to topmost officials. I was told to stay at home till investigations are conducted. I was then called for a meeting. No discussions on the escalation were held but was told that the HR is there is to help. I asked for support in either transferring me or if I have to resign then extend help in extending the notice period till I find a job. While it was verbally agreed, they did not commit in writing. I documented it and got a revert through a text message asking me to resign first and then they would review the discussion points.
I was waiting for them to revert. Now all of a sudden i received a couriered letter of termination dated 28th feb and it is effective same date.
The contract says that the company has the right to terminate without assigning a reason, but I have not breached any company policy. In fact I have been a victim all throughout.
Please suggest if I can disagree on the termination and file a legal suit.
