I have recently resigned from my position as a consultant at a healthcare company. My role involved screening patients and providing advice on the treatments offered by the company. As I only visited the company three times a week for my job, I am uncertain about the specifics of my job profile. Now that I have resigned, I am seeking clarification on my rights and benefits from the company post-resignation. Am I still considered an employee, and do I have the right to appeal if I encounter any issues?
Thank you.

You have yourself said that you were hired as a 'Consultant,' so your query, 'Am I an employee?' doesn't gel. You also work 3 days a week, which is more the nature of any Consultant/Contract employee's way of working. Surely you can't be treated as a Full-time/Permanent employee. Please look into your Offer/Contract Agreement for the replies to your queries.
Your two remarks/queries, "Do I have the right to appeal if I am in trouble?" and "I don't know what my job profile is?" are unclear. Can you please elaborate?

As rightly said by Mr. Tajsateesh, the determination of whether you were on a contract of service or a contract for service depends upon your agreement. Mere designation as a Consultant does not decide the issue. If you are covered as an employee and governed by a master-servant relationship, then only the extent of rights available to you can be considered.
