This is how a Country's Labour Laws should be enforced 👏🏻👏🏻

Standard stupid Indian HRs. Asking to share screen and resign. If you don't resign threatening to withhold the experience letter etc. Yaay to our labour laws!!

Hi Folks I recently got an offer and the notice period over there is 60 days. In my past companies it was 30 days everywhere. Just wanted to know your opinion.

I geniually want to understand why we are behind in manufacturing ? Although I'm from commerce background but I would love to know how does one start manufacturing business in India ? What type of engineers you need ? Honestly I don't have any clue but if any has some information pls discuss here.

It’s disheartening to see 1000s of people being laid off in recent times. Most of them have a family to feed and EMIs / bills to pay. Today it’s them and tomorrow it could be Me and You as well. And it’s pretty much clear that these new age companies are not empathetic and would go to any extent to meet their goals. Why isn’t any employee doing anything about these atrocities? Following are the few ways to send out a strong message to these employers for abusing / blackmailing / and forcing resignations and PIPs (share more in comments) 1. Boycott their products / Services - make a noise about it on social media. 2. Stop subscribing to their IPOs or start dumping their stocks. 3. Uninstall their apps.

I’m a very private person and I was a bit confused whether I should write here or not, but anyway. So, day before yesterday I was sitting on my chair after dinner and was thinking about my life and what the hell am I doing. I realised that, Saala bachpan se aaj tak race me hi bhaag raha hun. Pehle school me 1st, 2nd, 3rd aane ki race me. Then acche college milne ki race me. Then uske baad acchi job milne ki race me. Then uske baad agar ladki chahiye toh uske liye bhi ek race hai (Don’t have a gf, plz don’t take me wrong, it was a realisation) My current daily routine is like this: Wakeup everyday, write code, go gym, dinner, and then sleep and repeat this cycle everyday. School ke dost peeche chhoot gaye, college ke dost apni life me busy ho gaye, colleagues se main zyada baat nhi karta and main akela padh gaya. Feels like life is not intriguing anymore, it has no spark left. Its so painful to live everyday. I feel like I don’t want to live any more, I want to die but I can’t cuz of 2 reasons. 1. I’m the only son of my parents. 2. If I die like this, then I won’t be able to come out from the birth cycle. That’s it 🙏🏼

Last month I posted about firing a female employee after maternity that created a debate: https://share.gvine.app/fdu9iQyCrQP6Ehn89 For anyone interested in how things turned out, here it is... TLDR: Employee/new mom filed an FIR, police closed it after she admitted she quit after we tried to put her on a PIP. (In FIR she said she was wrongly terminated) The women's commission of India summoned me after and it was an experience! I got scolded for about 2h by four women... but in the end they just scolded me like angry teachers? I guess they tried to give the lady some satisfaction by humiliating me. Pretty sad if that's all they can do to represent women with genuine cases. Overall the average grapevine user said I was in the wrong for putting a new mom on a PIP, regardless of performance before and after pregnancy. Most critical folks told me I should've informed the employee about performance issues before maternity. Lawyers say I made the right choice and protected the company. It's a bit messed up that laws designed to protect women at work end up making things worse for them. Because of legal fear we went directly to a formal PIP with recorded calls with HR, the direct manager and others refused to do anything without legal advice. But in the end, she filed a case, so perhaps the cold approach recommended by lawyers was sadly correct. Lastly, I finally saw that outside of my own business echo chamber (both men and women business people), society holds pregnant women and new moms valuable above all else. Someone like me who is a bachelor & slave to capitalism has a totally different set of values, as such some people think I'm fair game for insults. But I hope by making products of value I can make a positive impact in my own way. Thanks for providing your perspectives.

- Australian employees can now ignore work emails and calls after hours due to a new 'right to disconnect' law. - The law, effective from Monday, prevents punishment for not responding to work contacts outside work hours. - Supporters argue it helps combat the invasion of personal life by work communications, a trend worsened by the COVID-19 pandemic. - The Fair Work Commission will determine if refusals to respond are reasonable, with fines for non-compliance. - Critics say the law's ambiguity may cause confusion and reduce job flexibility, potentially slowing the economy.

Shouldn't the government come up with a policy to introduce minimum wage, at least for freshers and interns working on site? Everywhere I see, interns and freshers are exploited like crazy. One can't even achieve basic standards of living with a 20k stipend. How is it legal for companies to make one work 10+ hours at a stipend of 20k-30k? That's like being paid 200-300 per hour.
