Respected Seniors & Colleagues,
Wishing you all a very Happy Diwali and a prosperous New Year. I hope you enjoyed the festival of lights with a lot of enthusiasm.
Clarification Needed on Jurisdiction for Legal Proceedings
My question to all of you is, I need clarification on the following: We have issued an appointment order stating the dispute jurisdiction as Chennai, but the employee is working in Haryana. Can we conduct a domestic inquiry and file a litigation case in any of the judicial mechanisms such as the Labour Court, Civil Court, etc., in Haryana?
Please guide.

If one of your workers from Tripura or Assam files a complaint with the Labour Commissioner of his district under the Payment of Wages (PW) or Minimum Wages (MW) Act, then obviously the worker has the jurisdiction, and you have to attend the case filed with the Labour Commissioner. However, if your contractor, vendor, or supplier files the complaint, then only the jurisdiction issue arises. The contractor/vendor/supplier must file only in Chennai as per your specified jurisdiction.
Within the company, you can conduct disciplinary proceedings against anyone and award any punishment (minor or major). The proceedings' paperwork must be forwarded to Chennai for approval, and upon approval, the punishment must be awarded.
