U/s 218 ” Protection of Employees During Investigation” the co. have to file an application to Tribunal before taking any action. Any objection by the Tribunal can be appealed against by the co. but can employee aggrieved by any order under this section file an appeal?
I could not find it in the bare text in the act which specifically mentioned about right of employee to file an appeal. But in ICAI study mat one of the ques was answered by stating that an employee can file an appeal. what is the correct interpretation?(image attached)
.
There is no text visible in the reply? Any technical glitch?
The answer provided by icai is correct
As Sec 218 says that
Appeal can be made by company or person concerned
Hence employees is person who is concerned in it
Employee can make an appeal
Further in general appeal k against dono party jaa skti h otherwise it is not natural justice
