Law Can Void The Contract
According to news from ET, most of the employees sign a contract while joining a job in a company. This contract decides the terms and conditions of their service in the company. But do you know that labour and employee welfare laws can nullify all such agreements?
Although there is no uniformity in labour laws regarding the contract of companies, they do not deal with many intricacies of the relationship between the company and the employee. The contract is valid at that time. But there is a provision to compensate the employee in case of dismissal.
In this situation, if the company’s contract talks about 30 days’ salary, and the law talks about 90 days’ salary. Then the rule of labour law will apply. On the other hand, if the contract talks about salary for 60 days, while the law talks about compensation for as many as 30 days, then the employee will get a salary only for 60 days, which means the contract will be valid. Let us tell you that in every state, the labour law is moulded according to its own.
