There are policies in our company for promotions which depend on certain criteria's. For eg- If an employee is a Senior Associate and wants to go a level up which is Lead Associate in my company, the criteria is a tenure of 1 year as a Senior Associate. Unfortunately there is a promotion which has happened for an employee who has not fulfilled the criteria of 1 year. I have raised a complaint for the same to the HR and the HR says that it was a system glitch and the mistake cannot be corrected. It has also been told to me that once a designation is given to an employee by mistake it cannot be taken back as per Indian Labour Law. The employee promoted is near and dear to the people who matter.
Is there such a policy in the Indian Labour Law which states that once a designation is given to an employee it cannot be taken back even if it is a mistake?
Thank you for your time.
