Understanding Salary Disputes with HR Management
How do you know for certain that the HR Manager is holding your salary when the management agrees to pay it? Whom do you consider as management? Any decision by the management, through any one of the decision-making authorities in the establishment, is normally made with valid reasons, justification, and based on policy and procedures. Whoever conveys the order does so 'for and on behalf of the management only.'
For non-receipt of salary, you are always open to file a claim before the labour officer against the management, not against the HR Manager.

Dear John,
You have raised a query regarding making a complaint against the HR Manager. In response to your query, a senior member has raised a few questions. However, the information provided in your reply is not sufficient. In light of this, please clarify the following:
a) You mentioned that "management has agreed to pay the salary amount." Why was the salary not paid? What was the reason for this delay?
b) If management agreed to pay the salary, was this commitment provided in writing? Has this information been communicated to the HR Manager as well?
c) If the salary has not been disbursed despite management's agreement, have you approached the HR Manager about this issue? If so, how did you communicate with him and what was his response for not disbursing the salary?
d) If you did not discuss this with the HR Manager, have you followed up with the management regarding the unpaid salary? If yes, what was their response?
It is crucial for you to receive your salary at this stage. Therefore, I advise against hastily lodging a complaint against anyone. Please remember that the HR Manager acts based on management's directives. Filing a complaint against him could be viewed as a complaint against the company, potentially complicating the situation. Proceed with caution.
Before proceeding with a complaint, ensure you have evidence of all correspondence. Maintain a polite demeanor during phone calls, but consider recording them for documentation. Similarly, for emails, always retain a printout for your records.
Thanks,
