How an employee file a case against IT company (for not proper recognition and Appraisal Increment)?

Question

Respected Sir,

I am an employee is a intelligent, Hard working committed employee. I have been in my current organization for 5 years since now.
However in the last appraisal year April 2023 - Mar 2024 the annual appraisal should be done duly on April this year (2024) and have 1-to-1 meeting sessions with the employee and rating should be updated in the system by May2024..Based on that the increments will be given

The organization was sleeping in the months of April, May, June,& July and with an agenda in their mind they conducted the appraisal in August 2024.without having one-to-one session with me. The management very hastily closed the appraisal process in an employee unfriendly manner.
Just by giving a low rating to me without considering my hard work and dedication and commitment last year to my organization. Apart from that I am an interviewer and technical panelist in my organization and in order to help the HR department to help hiring I have interview more than 50 candidates in the last year assessed them and given individual candidate feedback to HR

I have attached the screen shot of the appreciation mail from my General manager as evidence for my hard work and commitment last year.
I have also attached two screen shots of how the toxic work culture is spreading across the various industries and companies with recent incident taken place for an employee working in Earnest & Young (EY) company in Pune and how the employers and middle level managers abuse the appraisal process with out giving due recognition, rating and increment to the team members. I request you to urgently look into my matter and provide me legal help and support to get my due appraisal and increment. My details are below

Answer 1

To file a case against an IT company for improper recognition or lack of appraisal increment, the first step is to review your employment contract and company policies. Ensure that you have documented evidence, such as emails, performance reviews, or any other relevant communications, which demonstrate your achievements and the company's failure to recognize them.

If the issue remains unresolved internally, you can escalate it by approaching a labor lawyer or filing a complaint with your local labor department or employment tribunal. They will guide you through the legal process and advise you on the best course of action.

In parallel, while dealing with work-related disputes, professionals often explore skill enhancement to improve their market value. Many individuals seek IT assignment help to upskill themselves and advance their careers, especially in competitive industries. Remember, staying proactive is key to achieving career growth and recognition.
